rEAD this report and realise what an amazing year it has been for boxing. I'm downloading this fight now!!! :o :o
Re: Montiel retains world title! (was a war,WATCH THIS FIGHT¬!!!)
It was a war for sure!! I am surprised Montiel has lasted this long with that sloppy, wide open defense and those Sumo type stances he gets in. He takes alot of unneccessary punishment. He stands up straight and wings that overhand right and uppercut too casually and paid for it at times, but he's got heart, no doubt. The other dude is good and I think just got tired, he was winning most of that fight. The only 2 decent fights I've seen on the VS channel. Better than Tye Fields ::**
Re: Montiel retains world title! (was a war,WATCH THIS FIGHT¬!!!)
One of my FOTY candidate. Round six and seven were the highlights of the fight. When Montiel scored the KD in the 6th, then he started to showboat. Melendez landed a vicious a left hook in the 7th that sends Montiel to the canvas. It was pretty much give and take from there, but not until the last round when Montiel tagged Melendez with a crippling liver shot.
What a fight!
Re: Montiel retains world title! (was a war,WATCH THIS FIGHT¬!!!)
Great fight, thought the announcers were giving Melendez a little too much credit early as far as scoring the rounds, I had Montiel winning but still there were a lot of good close rounds, really good fight. The way Melendez came back in the seventh was impressive but seemed like he slowed down after that. Montiel has a nice left hook to the body.
Re: Montiel retains world title! (was a war,WATCH THIS FIGHT¬!!!)
I saw this one on VS last night, it was a good fight. Montiel dropped Melendez then got dropped himself. Melendez was game tho because Montiel is so open and willing to trade. Too bad he is friends with Arce they would be an exciting matchup. I like the part when he knocked Melendez down at the end of the round, then helped him walk to his corner when he got up....lol. Was a good esciting fight.

Yes, that was fantastic! I almost didn't tune in after the first two bouts were so predictable. Anyone who missed this, missed a hellavu good freebie.
