    Well... maybe it will last the distance. Seems to have settled into the same rhythm. Thepora lurching around launching his wide shots, and Ortega content with just crowding Thepora and peppering him with his straighter combinations. Glad I saw the previous fight.

    SHOCKER!!!

    Thepora dropped Ortega with about 30 seconds left in the round with a HUGE right uppercut. Ortega tried to recover, but again...... fight was stopped with mere seconds remaining in the round. Crowd woke up suddenly.

    Next up....... Pac-Matthysse.

    Ortega was dominating the fight, IMO. But got caught with a clean right uppercut. Thought the end of the round would save him, but the ref waved it off couldn't have been more than 5 seconds left in the round.

    2:38 of Round 9. Thought there was less time than that. Good stoppage.

    Here we go. I like both guys as fighters and as people. Have a gut feeling this might not end well for Manny. Hoping it's a great fight, and both perform well. Don't see Manny going too much further in the game, TBH. Getting up there in age, and he's totally into his politics. At some point he'll have to let it go.

    A bunch of blokes in tracksuits and a gogo bar girl having a singsong in the ring.

    3 anthems, a tour of Kuala Lumpur, and a video recap of the weigh-in later................ we're almost at fight time.

    Thunderstruck. Now that's much better. It would make a fantastic national anthem for some country.
