"Richie Kates is a true champion of the world. This is one of the greatest fights of all time.''
-- Tony Surace

Galindez knocked him out in the 15th round, Tony.
Kates had it won until the fight was stopped so Galindez was allowed to have a cut fixed.

"Quite a productive day! I love to see Bivalve alive with people and activity.''
