Wild action all the way with little regard for boxing technique.

I know Rocky mentions that it's their 2nd fight, but it's actually their 3rd. The 2nd fight was in Salt Lake City; this one is in Madison Square Garden.

You are right. This has to be the third fight. I edited the thread title.

What a war though.
