Rematch? Fortuna obviously dont want the fight.

Yes rematch makes sense if Fortuna will recover fast but Granados can fight Indongo.

Fortuna was too small

I wanna know where Granados and all of you get your weed from. Fortuna was ****ing him up before the accident. Granados was eating those punches like they were oranges and was on his way to getting stopped.

Fortuna was landing good shots, but never looked comfortable. He was holding a lot, so even if he was winning rounds, I think he was mentally fatiguing. Granados wasn't letting up and I think after the two point deductions, Fortuna said Fxck it. The replay shows that Fortuna didn't hit his head on anything, and while he may of been hurt, the whole "I'm paralyzed from the neck down" was overselling it.

Fortuna felt Granados’ punches and realized it would be a matter of time so he took the Cintron way out.

More like he felt Granados' hard head. Fortuna hit him with his best shot and it didn't slow him down. Very discouraging thinking you got nothing else and this guy is going on like this all night.

Granados needs 2 move up for better opposition to secure a title shut Fortuna needs to go back down... 2 small for the weight he was at last night and he didn't do himself any good for the stinker hero dive act ... if the who was terrible, he seemed more interested in himself being the main attraction instead of the 2 fighters, was in better position he could have secured Fortuna from falling off the apron of the Ring

I was ringside, literally only a few feet away from Fortuna when he fell out. Here is what I saw:
1. He fell through the ropes and then kind of sat on the edge of the apron for a second, then leaned back.
2. The crowd starting booing immediately. You could not hear it that much on TV, but it was deafening (more on this later).
3. Fortuna started SCREAMING...it seemed more like because no one was touching or helping him.
4. He pretty much wailed from that point until they rolled him out.

I can't say if he was hurt or not. But damn, he sure did act like he was about to die though. Either he is really hurt, or....once he heard the crowd booing the instant he went out the ring, he probably thought they were booing Granados for pushing him out and just decided to roll with it.

I did talk with Granados for a minute after he came back out and he thinks the point deductions combined with the fact he was eating Fortuna's **** caused Javier to mail it in. But he did emphasize he hopes Fortuna is not truly hurt. We'll see....
