One of my FOTY candidate. Round six and seven were the highlights of the fight. When Montiel scored the KD in the 6th, then he started to showboat. Melendez landed a vicious a left hook in the 7th that sends Montiel to the canvas. It was pretty much give and take from there, but not until the last round when Montiel tagged Melendez with a crippling liver shot.

What a fight!
