Wow, that was a marathon and a half. Two days straight of getting home at close to 2 am..... but well worth it.

The fight card was great. The best fights were José "Wonder Boy" Lopez defeating Mexican Miguel Angel Gonzalez via UD, and Carlos "Purin" Caraballo defeating Mexican Antonio Rodriguez via 4th round TKO. Both Lopez and Caraballo looked excellent in their fights. The Roach-Cruz fight was close but yeah..... the ref did a poor job in not acknowledging the clear knockdown. Don't know how he didn't. Still, it was close enough to where a draw wasn't all that bad a decision. Disappointing crowd size to be sure. I don't know whether the baseball games the previous two nights had anything to do with it or what. But it was a good card. Magdiel Cotto won his fight also, to improve to 9-0 with 7 KO's, but honestly he doesn't impress me. Lopez and Caraballo impress me more.
