    I don't know but looks to me like these guys can fight. I don't know how good they are but i wouldn't call them bums.

      The fight was for the WBA Superbantamweight title, and both men were ranked by all official sanctioning bodies, and both hadn't lost a fight in years.

      Don't confuse fighters you haven't heard of because they don't get a lot of exposure with bums.

        Really? You wouldn't be able to tell by their technique. I've never seen two fighters so square in my life when throwing punches.

          I think it was one of those situations where their styles translated into a war with thier opposing stances and that rare instance where each guy had the power to stun the other but their chins were good enough to walk through it.

          I wouldn't call them World class, but they defiantly wern't bums.

                Ward vs Gatti was like that because they had the chins to walk through each other's shots.

                How anyone can say this fight was boring, I'll never know.

                Both these guys were better than average punchers who'd scored a lot of KO's in pervious fights.

                It was just a battle of wills.

                      Tall guy fights small. He could have taken less damage by throwing his combos and stepping off to his right coz Monshipour looks like a plodding puncher.

                      They aren't bums but they are definitely C class fighters. Both would get busted up by top Hispanic fighters easily. Sorry....just my opinion.
