I'll never forget the way he couldn't make his weight against Callist, or the way he dropped gently to the canvas after Gatti nailed him in the liver... :D

Actually the man had his moments, and I was kinda hoping for a rematch against Spadafora.

You know,if Dorin didn't get robbed of the decision in the Spadafora fight,I think he would still be Lightweight Champion today.BTW,getting Kayoed with a bodyshot by a powerful puncher like Gatti is nothing to be ashamed about.Look at DLH-Hopkins and Mayorga-Tito,almost the same exact endings.

You're right, I was just being a bit of a jerk. It was a good match with Spadafora, too...too bad about the decision.

This has been like the year of body shot KOs. They work, so why not?

well he did have to very discouargaing fihgts
he beats spaddy gets robbed
gets chance at a strap and gets blown out in 2rds and with a tremendous shot
but i just comes down to the fact that he prolly feels hes to old to stil make any improvments
hes had to many ameture fights
he relized his best days are behind him
but much props to dorin
spaddy and balbi fights were great
