    I love this write-up on Borkorsor v Betulio Gonzalez from boxrec

    "Thailand's challenger Venice Borkorsor gained the WBC flyweight championship from Betulio Gonzalez on a TKO at 2:10 of the 10th round Friday night when the Venezuelan refused to continue the fight. Gonzalez, who suffered extensive damage to the body and was bleeding from a cut on his cheek, complained to his corner that he was unable to stand on his feet as a result of the battering he took in the 7th, 8th and 9th rounds. Venice had Gonzalez at his mercy on the ropes at least three times." -United Press International

    Now I ask you, if you look over Betulio Gonzalez' record, for a guy that fought everybody, how many fighters put that kind of a thumping on a guy like Gonzalez? Again, he had to be a monster at flyweight to inflict that kind of damage.

    good because I am old and will forget it like this one unless I stumble across it by accident next year. I only bumped it because I wanted to watch the Herrera fight but it is missing like 6 rounds. Oh well
