Arakawa is a ****ing savage. Omar's no joke, either. HUGE respect to both me for producing an all time classic this past Saturday night. Most people who watched live will never forget what they did in the ring that night.

Wonder if Floyd f*gs and Broner f*gs sat there watching it going : "Not enough shoulder rolls for me. 2/10."

Two warriors. Gave us their all, they didn't settle for anything less and so they put on an amazing show, one of the best this year.

My type of fights, shows grit and perseverance of the human spirit, bending physical limits, with strong acts of courage.

I'll proudly take these type of fights, over a boring 12rnd technical decission anyday.

I noticed something unusual in this fight about the ref. He broke up the two fighters and announced that the cut on figueroa's nose was the result of a head butt. Have you seen anything like that?

I too hope Arakawa knows all the love and respect he is getting from fans!!! Ao sad to see him lose so bad on the scorecards...

The Korean got heart. Other than that he's nothing special. He punches like a grandma.

He's not Korean, he's Vietnamese -- as his name "Nihito Arakawa" clearly points out.

We were able to enjoyed this terrific fight precisely because there was a kamikaze-samurai into the ring. Arakawa never surrendered where many fighters would have had quit.

Two badasses right there.
