A close fight you can debate, but a knockout like that can only mean humble pie. Rains has shown he is a boxing fan and not just a Pacfan. It never lives and dies with the one fighter.

Like Tito, I felt a bit sorry for Manny too. Of course I jumped up in the air shouting 'He fucking did it' at the top of my voice and posted 'He's been Hattoned', but then when I saw that he wasn't moving I knew that someone being Hattoned isn't a particularly elating kind of thing. Knocked out and counted out would have been different, but that was brutal and maybe even worse than the Hatton stoppage.

Hatton, Williams and Pacquiao are the great knockouts of recent years.
Miles weighs in with another perfect post.
Perfect in so much as it's exactly my thoughts.
