ok...... I just finished watchig the fight....... a few thoughts...


1. WOW!! what a fight that was, early candidate for FOTY (Considering I haven't seen Johanson-Burns)

2. Theres a few things I didn't like that Kats did. From the opening bell you coul tell that Kats was there for one reason and one reason only. To KO Earl, not a good idea IMO. Kats didn't fight his fight instead he went for the kill from the start. Kats took punches that he normally wouldn't have his defense is sooo much better then that. I think would he have fought his fight he still would have stopped Earl but it would have happened in the later rds.

3. Earl has some whiskers on him he can take a punch.... But I will say that the fight shouldn't have gone past the 4th. Yes Earl was throwing back it the punches were on instinct.

4. Why were they using pillows for gloves? Anyonw know?

5. Can't remember who said that Kats wen't down due to the distraction of the towel, NOT TRUE the towel had already been removed and both never stoped throwing punches Kats just got hit with a solid right hand... Which like I said he should have been....

All in all, I hope now that he knows hes going into a title match he comes in more calm and fights his fight instead of rushing in there like a bull....
