    I'm not going but will be watching. El Terible is always in wars! He is a warrior. Kirkland and Molina will be good too.

    Reminds me of Latin Fury cards.

    El Terrible is such a great warrior, he lost tonight but he gave everything he had with those old legs. The Kirkland v Molina fight was weird. Molina was robbed by that stupid ref and the Texas licensing commission. Even though Molina's people entered the ring, the ref could have just told them to leave and continued with the counts, he did not have to disqualify Molina. Give credit to Kirkland and his trainer, they felt they did not win it the right way and wanted to give Molina a rematch.

    The end of the Molina fight was crap. My biggest beef isn't actually that the referee disqualified him. It might be a particularly rigid interpretation of the rulebook, but he was just following the rules.

    My issue is that he stopped the count to tell the corner man to get back outside the ring, the corner man immediately realized his mistake and got out, he continued the count afterward and only after all this did he decide to tell anyone that he had made the decision to disqualify Molina. The whole deal reeked of indecision on the part of the referee.

    Count me as one that hopes that this was Morales' last fight. He is still fit enough and talented enough to compete, but he just isn't winning fights against viable competition anymore. I don't want to see him have to reach way down the ranks to find someone to fight.
