    Besides the finish... but still it was so great. So much heart. This is why boxing is so great.

    You seem to be taking the loss like a good sport and giving Sergio credit. :deal

    I think Chavez Jr. will be better for it after the loss last night. You could see in his mind that he was thinking of checking out and still staying in there, but in Round 12 he got that killer instinct and said I'm not going to go quitely. I am going to fight. And he did and made something special almost happen.

    I think in rematch he beats Sergio.

    That being said Pirog, GGG, and Quinlin KO his ass.

    It was an exciting round, especially after such a one sided ass whoopin'. Chavez had his chances in spots in the fight where he was getting Sergio trapped on the ropes, but he didn't do **** when he got him there.

    Hopefully if there is a rematch there will be more action throughout the fight, and I actually think there will be. Chavez learned some things about himself here, and I think he may take a few more chances if this fight was to happen again, which it looks like everyone involved from Dibella to Arum to HBO want to happen.
