This was the fight people were talking about. Donno why. But they were. Now, when this fight started, it was great. Very great. Good, strong back and forth action by both guys. First it was clear Coleman was going to win, then it was clear Bader was going to win, then Coleman, then even, then end of round. Now, this is where the fight took the unfortunate "Coleman Turn". Stamina issues set in, Coleman didn't recover that well, and was pretty darned tired for round 2. He subsequently got destroyed in round 2, and lost. I can't help but wonder what this fight would have been like if Coleman's stamina issues were fully addressed.
