    The ref is shocking, Fig coming in head first and punching anything, meanwhile Ricky being deducted points for pulling down ?

    Round 8

    Figueroa is pinning Burns' face in between his right fist & bicep and whipping left hooks into his jaw. Burns is pushing down on him and working in washer-woman fashion. Burns has a point taken by Cole, with no warning, inexplicably. Figueroa is back to holding and hooking.

    10-8 Figueroa

    77-74 Figueroa

    Cool. So, probably not better than Kameda-McDonell in terms of skill, but fun in its own way (depending on mood/preference).

    Omar is very unskilled, reminds me of Gatti.

    Can't believe Omar just keeps his head leaned in and let Ricky score like that, doesn't matter if not hurting him, he needs to be aware of what it looks like to the judging.

    Cole is a total snake he's clearly corrupt as sin. I'd love to take him out with a snipers rifle from a rooftop.

    lol at Virgin Hunter saying the head is a very dangerous weapon too. :patsch

    I personally found the co-feature not only more to my tastes stylistically and of substantially higher skill level, but legitimately more entertaining. :conf Some may disagree.

    The last fight was more entertaining. But this is also good.
