What a great back and fourth battle though. Constantly on and off the ropes, both sweeping with hooks and straights. Both landing at will. That Hussein was a hell of a counterpuncher but Arce was absolutely relentless. Great fight I think I'm going to watch that fight tonight.
But what a disappointment the second fight was. Does anyone what the deal was with Hussein? He was extremely timid. Didn't throw many punches at all and was staving off Arce well. Arce sat him down twice but neither time he was really hurt. And then Fenech called the fight off? Does anyone know if Hussein is still with Fenech? That was a bizarre fight. Hussein looked completely uninterested in fighting.
Yeah Arce is a tuff little troll. I hope he wins his next fight and goes on to wipe that smirk off of Vic Darchinyans fukin face. As for the second Hussein fight, I think Hussein was just plain scared. He had pushed himself to the absolute limit in the first fight...and still lost. So I think he just decided that it wasn't worth it to go thru that hell again, he figured Arce was just too tuff for him, and he said fuk it in the first round. Hussein was beaten mentally, he didn't think he could win, and didn't want to try.
"You knocked him down...now how bout you try knockin me down ?"
