    Come on, that was AFTER the fight, and it was not a push - it was a pity pat kind of punch in the chest and a little bit of chat with the ref. Nothing serious there... but, the ref was seriously bad that night. Didn't call several knock-downs, didn;t stopped the action after Gomez turned back several times...even VK stopped punching at one moment waiting the ref to step in. Just an awful job of refereeing.

    As for Sam Peter... nothing against the guy...but the things his manager and promoter said and did before the match was difficult to stomach. I don't think I'd be very friendly with them afterwards if I were Vk... he was friendly to Gomez despite everything that was said and done before the fight.

    Vitali ALWAYS looks gassed, but he also ALWAYS throws a lot of punches. Appearances can be deceiving, and a lot of the usual signs of tiredness (hands by sides, chin exposed, mouth wide open, arm-punching) are just part of how Vitali boxes.
