So far as I can tell, [this is the only record](http://www.eastsideboxing.com/forum/showthread.php?t=282923)of Felix’s views on the fight. This is posted from an old newspaper article on a discussion board (as you can see), so there’s a lot of side commentary, but it’s really interesting getting Felix’s POV, especially about the ‘liniment incident.’
