            Not just saying this coz im irish but Dunne v Cordoba was one hell of a fight,it had everything,it reminded me of the rocky movies,lol,an absolute war from start to finsih wit many knockdowns and comebacks,honest guys check it out,I know there not 2 of the biggest names around but I watch the vast majority of fights this year and this one takes it for me...
            Followed closely by a jmmv diaz....

              anybody for pascal vs diaconu?? And Im a Marquez fan, reason im not calling that foy is because I think HBO ****ed up Diaz punches because of the home turf. Maidana-Ortiz nahhhhh it was good but in my opinion it was just a meltdown for Ortiz and I can't say anything about the fans that was Dunne-Cordova was FOY cuz I didnt see it. Ohh yea and I know this will sound rediculous but I think Cotto should get a lot more credit than he does for his gutsy performance, dude fought a world-class opponent with one eye and won by a centimeter but he won.

                  100% agree, add the crazy ireland ambiance and the past fights of dunne that made this one an EXTREMELY important fight in his career...

                  underrated fight unfortunately
