FS1 Main Event: Sammy Vasquez vs. Jose Lopez

A few shots from last night's FOX Sports One (2015.09.15 - California PA) main event, Sammy Vasquez vs. Jose Lopez. I shot from 3 different locations during this fight:

1) from the upper press box with a 200mm f/2.8 with a 1.7 extender, giving me 320mm @f/4.3
2) about halfway down with a 200mm f/2.8
3) about 15 feet of of the ring with my 70-200mm f/2.8 & 24-70 f/2.8

I like the idea in most of the shots, but I don't really like the editing. It looks like you softened or airbrushed everything. For sports I think it be a better way to go if you kept them sharp. My favorite is the last one and I thnk it could be even better if you cropped in from the right. I don think the last 1/4 of the picture really adds anything to it, so Id get rid of it.

Thanks man, appreciate the comments, ... quick question, what do you mean airbrushed?

He means that the shot looks a bit soft, or slightly out of focus. I can really only see it on the second to last photo, though; everything else looks great!
