    Yeah Caudras remembered he cashed that check already.

      That was a damn good fight. Cuadras has crazy stamina to still move like he was in round 12.

        I do not see this possible win for Cuadras at all. Don't know WTF those saying that are seeing. Pretty obvious 8-4 or 7-5 win for Gonzalez.

          That was a great. ****ing. Fight.

          Everything that i love about boxing.

          Clash of styles, skills, heart, endurance, heart, power, chins, heart...

          Did i mention heart?

          Thought Cuadras made close through the middle and late rounds, but not enough to take away Choco's early dominance. Despite the looks of their faces afterwards i thought Gonzalez was landing the more effective shots most rounds.

          Didn't score but anywhere from 8-4 RG to a draw seems within reason. Cant see that Cuadras did quite enough to win.

          Naoya Inuoue will be a huge test for Gonzalez. He is supremely skilled and powerful (though with his hand injuries who knows if it's the same now). Maybe a step to far for Chocolatito based off this fight. Despite the fight night weight, Roman looked small and you see the extra weight of Cuadras gave him lots of problems.

            Other than the close first round, gonzalez battered Cuadras early on tbh. No way was it a boxing lesson early on. Actually at no point of the fight was it a boxing lesson.

              Great fight. Tough fight..respect to both guys.
              Cuadras was always going to make it competitive, but i had Gonzalez winning a close fight.

                Great fight! Kudos to both fighters as I tip my hat to them for putting on such a spirited display of skill, will, heart and endurance for the viewing audience. I know that Gonzalez got the nod for this one, but there were no real losers in this fight. In my view, they both left the ring champions. The only winners in this bout were us the boxing fans; As we were given this treat of a crowd pleasing performance by both fighters.

                  Good fight. I was rooting for Roman but I have to accept Cuadras was the real victor (we all know about HBO and Vegas power influencing judging). This is the first time I have ever seen Gonzales face so damaged. Roman's face was so messed up at the end that I think that he will end paying for this fight in the future.

                    great performance by cuadras but i personally don't think he had a real argument for winning the fight

                    gonzalez won the most rounds

                    he definitely looks diminished at 115 though

                      I wanna see Choco vs.:

                      -Inoue, then Estrada then rematch with Cuadras.
