In fact Nilan probably landed the better punches. Notice at the beginning Nilan got a hold of Tinordi's right arm in a good spot where as MT grabbed Nilan by the shoulder...which allowed Nilan to get inside and score . Tinordi was never great at the defensive aspect...it's funny how many guys grab the shoulder and wonder why they're eating shots....
