My biased ass voted for Lopez.

Really, winning a championship fight after a couple of jabs, and then the first two power punches thrown without getting hit once is pretty incredible.

I was wondering why there hadn't been a bigger uproar about that... it seemed pretty lame to me.

People want to ignore it. That 1...2...3...4...5...6...7...8...910 was F'd up to the MAX! That other guy was waiting to get back into the fight

Sergio Martinez's performance caused the most interest for me...

and agreed wit the gamboa stoppage...that dude was definitely tryin to milk the count (which he's allowed to) but the ref said '**** you' by pulling the 910 count...hahahahah

I can't give too much credit to Lopez. Honestly it is hard to top what he accomplished vs Daniel Ponce de Leon. He what he was expected to do. It isn't really noteworthy or remarkable. Everyone knows how good he is now. He basically sealed the "Do you know me now award" for the year with the amazing 1st round KO of Ponce de Leon.

I would vote for Martinez. He looked very impressive and looked like a world class fighter that deserves a title shot vs a big name.

Angulo... He won a beatdown. He got backed up several times I still think he is maybe a fight or two from being the creme of the crop at 154. He lived up to the expectations.

Gamboa. He showed everything that we knew he would do, but it is very dissapointing that he got knocked out once more on HBO. He gets hit too often for me to say that he is impressive. He can coast and get KO's vs club fighters but he has not shown me that he is good enough to get away with his massive defensive short comings vs elite fighters. I think a guy like Steven Luevano would school him. I would be interested in seeing him fight someone like Vic just just for the hell of it. Different weight classes but it would be fun to see.

I don't know how JML could win this. Fighting someone ranked way the **** at 200 or something like that isn't impressive, we all knew what the outcome was going to be.

I meant to vote for Sergio, my bad.

Definitely Martinez. He was in the most even fight going in and he electrified. Lopez beat a guy who was handpicked for him.
