    Very nice video. A shame it's so hard to get some of his tough defenses against solid opposition: Suarez, Villasana, etc.

    BTW, I think one of the judges did as well. One thing's for sure, most ringsiders had Nelson ahead going into the final round including the announcers. 13 fights on eight days notice against a Hall of Famer who never fought again speaks for itself.
    I never really sat down and scored it myself, but I got the impression that Sal was very slightly ahead. he scored a knockdown around the 6th round and kept catching Azumah with his short counter left hook, which was what Sal ended up knocking him out with. kept popping Nelson and sending him off balance.

    Ill tell you what fight he should have been ahead in but wasnt...the Wilfredo Gomez one. I think the judges had Gomez ahead, but personally I thought Gomez needed a knockout to win since the 9th or 10th.
