    Decent little fight from Top Ranks 'vegas bubble' in the early hours of the morning, for those who want to stay up.

    Also Sam Jones managed heavyweight Guido Vianello fighting 5-1 Kinsgley Ibeh, who can bang a bit and has featured on a couple top rank cards before.

    Great fight but disappointing to see Zapeda celebrating while Baranchyk was out on the canvas.He didn`t even go to see how he was.

    Sensational fight, a real cliffhanger.
    After the fluke injury loss to Flanagan and being unlucky with judges against Ramirez, Zepeda’s perseverance has paid off.
    He’s great to watch , bouts against Prograis or Taylor would be unmissable.

    Hear what your saying but they'd just punched the absolute **** out of each other, adrenaline would have been sky high coming out of that as the winner

    I appreciate that but their have been numerous cases of fighters going to see how their opponent is after a gruelling fight.Especially when it is obvious that the fighter is in a bad way.Zapeda must have seen him flat out on the floor but showed no concern whatsoever

    Zepeda had just literally been buzzed, technically knocked down and took a count just seconds before landing that absolute beauty of a punch. Seconds before that punch he's probably thinking "if I lose this, in the current situation, this could be the end of my career at the top", so when he puts him down you can see in his face and body language that it's just pure relief, I can't imagine how I'd feel after that but I'm pretty certain that there was nothing spiteful or disrespectful about him not going over to check on Baranchyk, he'd just been involved in the fight of the year, hats off to both of them, a win for the sport.
