    Ortiz-Berto is overrated IMO. It had great moments and especially the 6th round, but I remember the final stretch of the fight being boring, with Berto holding on and just trying to survive........or maybe I have to watch it again. :D

    This had explosive written all over it. Bombs exchanged from the opening bell. I agree with the stoppage, Antillion was ****ed up and had NO legs left. This fight gets my vote.

    Rios vs Anitllon was good, but most of the fight, it just seemed like everyone was wondering how long Anillon could take it, more than anything.

    Ortiz vs Berto is foty in my book by a country mile at this point.

    Marquez-Concepcion for me. At times, that fight just seemed like one long savage exchange.

    Good shout homie.

    I still can't believe how that one went down, as I completely underestimated Marquez, and it looks like Conception did as well.

    Rios knows how to cut the ring he just walks his man down and finishes them off, he just keeps on getting better every fight, oh and he can take a punch the harder he gets hit the harder he punches back.....Love to watch this guy fight.

    Last year.

    2011, I'm going with Morales-Maidana so far, though I'm looking forward to some epic scraps later in the year.
     
  13. It was good action for sure, but I've seen better fights this year with more drama.

    It was a great fight. Ill take 3 rounds like that over any 12 heavyweight fight all day.

    I'm not sure. It's between these for me:
    Rios Vs Acosta
    Marquez vs Concepcion
    Rios vs Antillon

    That Rios fella sure knows how to put on a show.
