Did anyone watch this fight?
I sat down and watched a tape of the Wealth TV telecast on Monday night. :o
It was horrible, the commentators were all over the place and inaccurate in everything they said, and the lack of atmosphere was deplorable. Like Dan Rafael said, this fight meant nothing in the states!

I thoughts the fights were enjoyable..I have seen worse.
The telecast reminded me of the old days of wrestling when they used to wrestle in a TV studio !!
And the main commentator was just too over the top. When i could understand what Larry was saying i enjoyed his input. All in all it was different, and the fights were ok. They just need to replace the head commentator
