Arreola just went the Distance with the Ruiz at 42 yo. Maybe old guys are coming back in.

Love seeing some tiny guys enjoying the limelight, somehow managing a war and a fun exhibition at the same time. This is where I wish boxing had a ufc style fight if the night bonus, cause these guys are the definition of entertaining. Until what the fornicate was that stoppage,

Taka literally saving the card...and the boxing establishment will have nothing of it, and the ref pulls the plug. He was losing that round and the fight but he was also schooling Soto.

Unforgivable.

What a shit stoppage from Cole. Takayama was still fighting back, being competitive, and not terribly wobbled. He probably would have made it the distance. His recuperative powers are awesome. Now he is embarrassing Cole in front of everyone showing how fresh he still is.
