That was a bad one for me. I was watching with my Dad and in the fifth round I turned to my Dad and said "This is the kind of fight where someone dies." Jimmy Garcia was getting hit, and hurt, with every punch Ruelas threw, but he just wouldn't go down. I've often wondered if I could see what was happening from TV why couldn't the ref or Garcia's father see it?
That is one fight that I have not watched again, it was very brutal, I was surprised Sky showed the highlighted fight again the day after.
Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
