    Orlando Salido and Juan Manuel Lopez just produced something absolutely EPIC. There isn't another sport in the world that can produce the mayhem, brutality and beauty of a GREAT boxing fight. I won't spoil the fight... just do yourself a favour and get your hands on this, probably through YouTube as soon as possible. An incredible fight.

    Rd 9 was as brutal a round as ive seen.

    Two judges had lopez up at time of stoppage. Thankfully salido kicked their cheating assess by getting the ko.

    Round 9 sure was brutal.

    I thought Salido was ahead close at the time of the stoppage & find it hard to see how Juanma was in front. Either way Salido didnt need the judges.

    Look I'll need to watch it again but I think it could hold its own with just about anything of the past decade. It was incredible.

    Agreed - first fight in a long time that actually had the hairs on the back of my neck standing up. Totally awesome!

    He needs a long rest thats for sure. He will never beat salido, talk of a trilogy is silly. Besides, he hasbeen ko'd twice, i dont think he deserves it anyway.
