I actually got to watch that one live, which is somewhat unusual with my current (infant-dominated) schedule. But I'm glad I got the chance to watch this one as it happened. It was a fun fight. Wasp versus fencepost for three or four rounds and then wasp versus bear for most of the balance.

I had it as a draw, with PM taking most of the early rounds and then coming back in the late rounds. He slowed up a bit in the middle rounds and Broner was more active. Yeah, Broner had more power. But as you said, neither hurt the other. Paulie took some shots but he's tough and he kept on coming.

I appreciate your insight on the political dynamics. I know Paulie has laid out similar complaints before. I do like him as a commentator.

We're moving before long, and so I'm not sure how much longer I'll have access to cable fights. But I'm certainly enjoying them while they last.
