<-- CutMeMicks Ringside Exclusive Of Williams-Carlos & Berto-Michael -->(Pics & Vids)

[CutMeMick]

Both guys land some good shots here...

[CutMeMick]

Come on Paul!!!
Wake your ass up!!

Paul cut over both eyes feeling it now. While I'm sure his trainer is telling him that he needs to start with his jab and keeping him at the end of his punches and he needs to let his hands go.

[CutMeMick]

The 12th and final round came and Paul was desperate here. Carlos fought cautious but even them tagged Paul with some good shots.

[Cortez The Killer]

Real quality thread here!

It looks like the ref jumped the gun a little on the Arreola fight. Still, does not look like a fight that wouldve answered any questions anyways. I would like to see Arreola in with a Brock/ Oquendo/ Ruiz...or maybe even a Ray Austin Just an average "good enough" heavyweight who wont be a total pushover!

Can't wait to see the Williams-Quintana fight, I missed it. I forget who said it, but someone on the forum said they would like to see how Quintana matches with Cotto again now that Quintana has some more confidence in him. I agree with that completely!

147 is so crazy right now, it is criminal that Floyd is out of the scene. The problem is, Floyd is so concerned with the number "0" that if any of these guys have a loss it will be his excuse not to fight them. Let's hope Cotto keeps that "0", it will be a difficult task with all these young and hungry top dogs in the division.

Rep for the exclusive ringside write up as well.. good stuff!

Here are 5 short videos from the fight.

Paul enters the ring to "Ain't No Stopping Us Now" a 70's/Disco song.
I thought it was a brilliant thing by Paul that he would enter to this song as I thought he was gonna showcase himself landing at will vs. Carlos little did I know this entrance would be along side the Spinks entrance in his rematch vs. Zab....

The bell rings...

By this time it was already clear that Quintana was onto something and Quintana had been landing his clean shots. You can hear me cheering Carlos in spanish saying 'Well done Carlos, well done"

The end of round 9 where I believe Carlos lands some solid shots to close out the round and had busted up Paul by now. You can hear me and the crowd cheering Carlos on for the hard effort he had been putting as the fight went on.

The last 25 seconds of the 12th round plus the score announcement. As the bell rung I was screaming man...
I ALWAYS SAY THIS 1ST AND FOREMOST I'M A FAN OF THE SPORT AND TO BE THERE LAST NIGHT WAS INSANE MAN! I ALWAYS LOVE BEING AT A BOXING EVENT AND TO BE RINGSIDE IS SOMETHING I ALWAYS LOOK FORWARD TO. I FUCKEN GET DRAWN INTO THE ATMOSPHERE AND I JUST LIVE IT ALL OUT....
The crowd went crazy and started chanting... I was talking to the people around and I was saying they better not call it a Draw, they better not call it a draw. When they announced the scores I sware I thought "Damn! They gave it to Paul"... The second Buffer said "And New"..... FUCK! I went crazy... Because it was such a fucken action packed fight the whole way and Indio fought his ass off man he really deserved it and I was screaming. I'm a HARD CORE FAN and these are the kind of moments I live for....

Thanks Mick....way to "put" us In the front row I wanted to see Arreola fight but once I saw Couser as opponent I knew It would be a quicky.
Couser looks more like The meek and weak version of Bert Cooper there with the back turning as opposed To Tyson Lol. Paycheck Indeed. Thanks for the Pics and first hand breakdown....A pinch o' rep yourway.

I agree, I wanted to see Chris do his thing here and next thing you know the ref. is waiving it off.

[CutMeMick]

At ringside I had the opp. to meet a few people there... Some I took a pic. with others I didn't.



I'll start off with this pic. of my girl and I.

[CutMeMick]

Not at all man, believe me when people here have posted picks and stuff from fights I'm the 1st there giving them props man.. It's what I live for man. I love boxing and when the lights are bright! and the adrenaline is pumping!!! I go crazy...

I though you were ready to roll at the end In the twelth round .......Real good stuff and Brings It up a notch In this Great Forum Except the "He blew It...He did A Margarito" JK dude great!

Actually the guys who made the Margarito comment was the guy next to me. He said he felt that Carlos gave the last round to Paul and that he lost the fight in that last round... According to him.

[CutMeMick]

Heres me and Chris Arreola after his fight as he walked out of the Casino.
Cool guy and very friendly...

[CutMeMick]

Heres me and 'The Bronx Bomber' Alex Ramos. 4 time NY Golden Gloves winner 77, 78, 79 and 80. I've met him before but now I got the opp. to have my picture taken with him. He lost all his major bouts but still was a solid guy who always fought his ass off.
PLUS what he is doing now for boxers is fucken PRICELSS and something that no one else is doing. You gotta love 'em for that.

[CutMeMick]

Heres the HBO cast.

[CutMeMick]

Heres Lennox Lewis.
(My brother told me Lennox did a shitty job at commentatin on the fight anyone else agree?)

[CutMeMick]

And last but def. not least the crowd mobbed the annoucers area as soon as the fight was over people wanted to get their picture with Lennox and wanted hi autograph.
I wanted to take a picture with the fella but failed.... It was just nearly impossible to do it as people were allover him.






I did however managed to stick my glove and a sharpie in his face as he stormed out of the Ballroom and asked him to sign it. Lucky me he grabbed the marker and glove and signed it for me.
