Are there pics or vids of this?

How do you define a "large" crowd? Does 100 or so people, including fighters, trainers, clingers-on, reporters, photographers, videographers and fans count? Most of the cheering was for Sergio Mora and Carlos Quintana. There was some exclamation for Paul Williams, too.
