Speaking of balls, Segura sure got in a lot of low blow shots including one right before the punch that put Calderon down...

[boxer2k5]

well you aint **** and your a nobody. ivan has been fighting the best in his divisons and was one of the longest reigning champions in recent history hes older smaller weaker and fighting the best guy there. and went for the rematch. jsut because he didnt succeed you cant take **** from him. when your fat ass gets in the ring and box and over come anything besides your apetitie threshold then you can disrespect a prize fighter until. then stfu deactivate your account.

You have Calderón winning R2, too, even as your description of it suggests a Segura round.


I'm surprised so many seemed to have that one scored for Calderón. Segura's was so much the more effective work, that one round convinced me we were in for an earlier night.
