Great fight

Posted by corboy on Oct 28, 2007 at 4:56 PM agree

great toe-to-toe fight. I gave it a draw. Nothing better than Thornton throwing rights while Cote threw lefts. Not much defense here. both guys were very active.

Posted by shrk33 on Oct 29, 2007 at 4:31 AM agree

one of the best fights so far in 07. Slight edge to Thornton

Posted by blackngold on Oct 28, 2007 at 8:31 PM agree

Fight Of The Year!
These two have a history.

Posted by DetroitIan on Oct 30, 2007 at 5:15 PM agree

Thornton DESTROYED Cote. Cote didnt land one punch. Thornton landed atleast 5 good shots. Shawn Thornton was the clear winner.

Posted by slshbleed on Oct 29, 2007 at 6:05 PM agree

That may be fight of the year so far.

Posted by chris_mcallister on Oct 29, 2007 at 1:16 PM agree

Slight win for Thornton in a great FOTY nominee.

Both guys deserves props for just dipping their heads and throwing.

Posted by Juha82 on Oct 30, 2007 at 6:18 AM agree

Thornton landed more punches here.
Narrow win to Thornton in a great toe to toe fight.

Posted by Brashearfan on Oct 29, 2007 at 7:27 AM agree

This should be one of the top 5 fights of the year.

Posted by Formerref on Oct 29, 2007 at 4:39 PM agree

Best fight this year by far!!!
2 guys throwing and taking them.
Draw.
Definite FOTY so far, take a good one to unseat it IMO.

Posted by Wolf_eyes on Oct 30, 2007 at 3:05 AM agree

Great Fight!! A classic, no holds barred, old school, knuckles to noses fight. I'm impressed.

Posted by Riomouse911 on Oct 31, 2007 at 11:35 PM agree

WOW! I give it to Thornton because of the first 30 punches they threw he landed a lot more.

Posted by Wild_KO King on Nov 07, 2007 at 8:38 PM agree

Best fight of the year so far. That is what hockey fights are supposed to look like, no more of this dancin' crap. Credit to both fighters, slight edge to Thornton.

Damn good fight

Posted by CocoQuaker7 on Dec 31, 2007 at 4:35 PM agree

Cote sucks, but this is the best fight I've seen from him. Thornton didn't look like he minded taking Cote's punches one bit.
