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

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

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.

Good fight !But not a very smart fight by either,these two both looked like Jeff Odgers.Good fighters are like good dancers anybody can go out there hang on with the left and throw rights from left field.Entertaining though.

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.

Posted by mikebflorida on Oct 29, 2007 at 9:35 AM agree

WOW

I can't pick a winner out of that. Both were landing punch after punch, were still up at the end, and smiling. Impossible to pick a winner out of that. Draw all the way.

This was the best fight of the year. Draw

Posted by pmarz1 on Apr 5, 2008 at 12:25 AM agree

Not even close. Cote got two good shots in mid way thru the fight but after that not much more. Think some of you posters should try and view these fights in slow motion, then maybe you'll have a clue as to what you think you saw. Some of these comments in here are like listening to Jack call the fight, well, not quite that bad but you get my point. Thorton with yet another dominate win.

Early candidate for fight 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 cabsf15e on Oct 29, 2007 at 5:05 AM agree

Good toe-to-toe slugfest! Thornton landed more punches than Cote did, but they both threw a lot which is how it's supposed to be done! We need to get back to the days of the "Big, Bad Bruins"..they routinely used to kick the crap out of the cheapshot broadstreet bullies...seems some things never change!

Posted by BStreetBullies on Oct 29, 2007 at 9:50 AM agree

FOTY! Most punches I have seen eaten in a fight in a while, awesome fight. Draw.
