Whos jesse orta? I don't remember him.

I'm actually looking forward to Juan DelaRosa. They lied about his record and said how young, fast and talented he was. When he fought he was wild and reckless like the pacman.

I'm interested to see how he's grown he was 18 I believe at the time of the show.

I can't remember. All I know is I checked his record out on boxrec at the time of the show. And he had like 4 or 5 fights I believe.

i heard alot of his fights were in mexico, so they can't prove it.

Sugar Ray Leonard sure thought he was good early in the show, so I'd like to see how good.

That's exactly why I liked it. I was afraid they'd have some moron announcer who simply is a personality on TV who wouldn't commentate for ****.

I liked the story in this fight and the final result...Brinkley fell in love with himself thinking he could just end it whenever he wanted witha single blow...he landed some good shots and Bonsante just shook them off and stuck to his gameplay not letting there be a repeat of the first fight...you will also notice that when the 10sec warning hit, Brinkley winged one final uppercut thinking he could get lucky as in the first fight and Bonsante just shook his head like "nope! that aint working again =)"

Out of all the contenders who is actually moving on with their career and has a shot to be decent? I'm guessing Fredo is done, he's made his dough. Kaddour looked good in his last fight , he's fast and pretty slick. Ishe is damn good but the rest suck imo.
