Comments Thread For: Francisco Santana Stuns Felix Diaz in WBC Welterweight Tourney

Damn, Diaz was probably my most confident pick to win tonight & was my pick to win this whole thing. Nice lil upset.

Anyone's tournament now. CVH & Solomon would probably be my top 2 now. Although maybe this cat who beat Diaz should be in that mix too. I just didn't see the fight so can't co-sign that quite yet cuz idk if this cat showed up &/or Diaz didn't or what exactly happened in this bout.

All of them are nothing more than C class bums

I was shocked. I though the fight was close. Judges had it wide for Santana, at least three of them did.

I turned it off after 6. I had Santana taking the first wide, but Diaz rocked him a little in the second and he was hesitant after that. I didn't keep a score but it looked to me like Diaz won rounds 2-6. He was really rocking Santana and Santana was throwing from a further distance and not landing a ton of punches.

Turned it off because I expected a late stoppage or wide scores for Diaz. Crazy.

I bet Diaz prebet, but Diaz wasn't really comfortable fighting against Santanas high volume.
and didn't fight with any urgency.
live betting was available so I put some money on Santana decision right before the mid point scorecards were announced.
Santana decision was valued at 11x at that point lol.

sidenotes:

they were fighting with venum gloves. I had a pair a couple of years ago and they are what I would consider pillow gloves. not build for punchers.
so wasn't that surprise that all of the fights went the distance.
