Very entertaining fight which was fully controlled by a boxer that is fast, accurate, and moves with master excellence in the ring. Thanks to Sergio Martinez, Fortuna is now able to fight with a similar style that he use with master proficiency too. A boxer to take into consideration and to watch him closely in future fights. Velasquez a good boxer too never got the chance to hit a target so elusive but he put the best of him in his try.
al rato lo ponen en un rincon olvidado, si sigue peleando como los cubanos, la gente paga por ver madrasos no carreras.
por que no an puesto la de molina vs domonique? o algo asi se llama, los highlights, en youtube se mira que estubo entretenida.
Love Fortuna’s somersault after being thrown by the referee at the very end! :P Excellent fight for him.
