Soo hwan hong is one of Korea's greatest 122lbs ever to lace em up.. Because he's a friend of my dad, ive met him on several occasions and this is what he told me about this fight... Going into this fight was for the vacant WBA superbantma strap against an undefeated fighter is Carassquilla... Mr. Hong was coming at the end of his career and he was way past his prime but he wanted last shot at glory so he took it... From the opening bell, he couldnt get his rhytm and was getting hit from all angles.. He told me that it was so hard to keep up with the young gun's pace.. Then in round 2, he started getting bombed on and ended up tasting the canvas 4 ****in times!! he says that after the last kD, he saw the life flash before his eyes and the fact that he got humiliated like this was unnacceptable to him.. HE was either gonna kill or be killed and he wasn't going to go down like this by youngster.. So he went for broke and managed to cause one of the greatest come from behind KO ever in boxing!!!! check this.. [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bQDhxjdDbgc[/ame]
Elder vs Burton touched me...not sexually but emotionally. This was great as well but Elder was getting his special ed looking ass raped around the ring for almost 11 rounds and he ends up putting courtney to sleep...classic
Amazing fight. 99.9% of all refs today would have stopped that fight in the second round and denied the opportunity for the comeback. Thanks for posting.
AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!! cannot believe it wasnt stopped in round 2 but mad props for the will and determination shown by hong there!
