Martinez's legs are the equivalent of the tin man needing oil. He looks a bit better now.

Wow. Old knees on his opponent or not, Cotto definitely handled his business the right way.

That was high quality all around. Kudos to both men.

Gamboa reminds me of Zab Judah. Incredibly fast, fools people into thinking he has defense as opposed to reflexes, dangerous early, but can be out maneuvered late, and timed to death. Then again, at least Judah was the undisputed champion of a weight class for a cup of coffee. Gamboa has never reached that peak.

I cringed when I learned that Juanma was still fighting. I wish my instints were wrong.

A split decision is fine. That 9-3 split...drat.

So I'm killing time in a hotel room right now, noticed FNF was on. Hey, Mike Lee is fighting! Who is Mike Lee? He was in a Subway commercial or 2. I still didn't know who he was, and for good reason. This is 13th pro fight, and first since 2010.

What I really want to know is, how the hell did he get those Subway commercials?!! Kickass sleazy agent? Bedfellows with someone in the company? I mean it makes no sense :psyduck:

Vargas Novikov is a pretty nice little fight so far.

I understand that Novikov is not necessarily a power puncher, but that doesn't mean Vargas should be this sloppy. What the hell...

I wonder what it is BHop sees in Kovalev that he went for the fight? Because he seems loving terrifying every time I see him.

Because he is unrefined. Of course that could backfire badly because Kovalev may walk through everything and land the type of punches to end it quickly without regard to strategy. I'm actually excited about it.

So he clears it for a DDT but a standard hold with both guys acting on opposite spectrums ends it? :psypop:

Porter fights like a running back who learned new rules that allow you to punch.

Why is the Showtime crew making more of a big deal on the count than necessary? Ortiz made the situation a judgement call. At that point, he had spit out his mouthpiece, and had not exactly done much before the 8-9 count interval to indicate he wanted to continue. Many refs let that go, but thats pure discretion.

Honestly Boardwalk Hall is small enough that no seats are really that bad.

That left hook was like a tennis serve. Impressive.
