Good fight! A bit one sided in the favor of the always entertaining Baby Bull though. Just yesterday, I watched 2003’s fight between Rocky Juarez and Antonio Diaz (also in Houston, TX). Similar type fight between light weighted fighters in which many powershots are traded with a late cherry on top KO.
