    That'd be an honor. I'm a huge fan of your work. I'll send over a fax asap. I'm sure Japan thanks you for your commitment to excellence.

      He is B level.
      How was he about to lose the fight? How is it that the guy who got dropped, got his eyelid tore open and was losing clearly on the cards (whether you agree w/them or not) was about to win the fight? Rosado wasn't remotely close to stopping Quillin and had the fight been allowed to continue, the badly damaged eye (and assuming it didn't fall off) would likely have played against Rosado. Let's try to be reasonable here for a second.

        Quillin was definitely wobbled but he ****** it u , and continued. He was doing retty good when the fight was halted. The jab that caused the cut almost caused a knockdown. Quiliin seemed like maybe he should have trained harder but I think he was starting to turn the fight back in his favor.

          Fair scoring and no stoppage could have got Rosado the win. He was a +600 underdog! The point is that like this thread suggests, Quillin is/was massively overrated...bookies including. If they ever rematch, it would be a 50-50 fight in the real world.

            Honestly I think it's more a case of Rosado being underrated. With that said I think Quillin's claims that he's just as good as Golovkin look a lot less credible now.

            I didn't know that anyone was overrating Quillin or rating him that highly to begin with, so I abstained from voting in this poll. Would have appreciated a "not overrated" option but I suppose that is too much to ask for.

              I saw both fighters have there moments in there. But towards the end I thought Rosado was showing more wear and I think Quillin was coming on. But they should have let it go on to the end of the round.

                He was hurt, one good shot from going down imo. He was lucky the round ended when it did.

                  I just know that if Golden Boy's intention with Rosado was for Quillin to show up Golovkin, Quillin failed that goal miserably.

                      What happened during the Winky fight? I have not seen it.
