    Boxing 2007 - Who you got?

    Hopefully it happens. Don't have much faith that it will, but we'll see. Nice little fight tonight between Judah and Cotto. Cotto showed some great composure (amidst cuts, getting rocked, gettin deducted points) to keep his head and apply constant pressure. Zab Judah showed some great heart...

    I thought de la Hoya - Mayweather was dull until I saw Spinks-Taylor. Man, what a stinker! If you managed to miss it count yourselves fortunate.

    Boxing 2007 - Who you got?

    Barring some DLH-Sturm type BS decision, Floyd should take this one comfortably. Who knows though, I thought Oscar lost to Whitaker, and Oscar ended up winning the fight on the Vegas judges' cards by 5 or 6 points. Should it be anything resembling a close fight, they'll give it to Oscar...

    Haha, just reminded me of that bit on the 24/7 doco where Roger Mayweather is trying to prank call Freddie Roach and Roach asks him to please speak English :D Both Uncle Rog and Floyd Sr. are crackheads par excellence!

    Boxing 2007 - Who you got?

    Frank Warren is full of it. He always gives unreasonable offers and then claims the other guy is ducking his fighter. The end result is a fighter like Calzaghe who doesn't leave his country and takes 15 years to unify a frikken title. If Kessler-Calzaghe doesn't come off it won't be...

    Boxing 2007 - Who you got?

    What draws you to MMA over boxing? I've never understood the fascination with it myself, but I don't know much about the sport so I don't want to belittle it.

    Boxing 2007 - Who you got?

    The fight is actually happening at a catchweight of 170, so that should favour Hopkins quite a bit. Had it occured at 160, or even 165, I might have went for Winky, but 170 will be a bit much for him I think. Hopkins started his career at 175, Winky at 154. Hopkins has a bit of a natural size...

    Boxing 2007 - Who you got?

    Yeah Marquez-Barrera was a very good fight. Very impressed with the skill on display in that one. The closeness of the encounter also made it fascinating. I thought Marquez won a close but clear decision, 7-5. Don't know what fight the judges were watching. I actually didn't see the...

    Boxing 2007 - Who you got?

    There's some big fights coming up soon which hopefully live up to the hype. Who do you pick in these fights? - Floyd Mayweather vs. Oscar de la Hoya: Had this been a 1997 Hoya I might have reconsidered. With a 2007 Hoya? Floyd by comfortable decision: 9 rounds to 3. - Marco Antonio Barrera vs...

    Mundine V Soloman

    All we need now is for the IBF, WBC and WBO to jump on the 'superchamp' bandwagon and the whole sport will go to the pigs (hasn't it already?). Back in the day fighters like Mundine were known as contenders, now they are known as 'two time'.

    The Lleyton Hewitt Appreciation Thread

    Since the start of 2006 Safin has played in 26 tournaments, excluding Davis Cup. Hewitt has played 19 excluding Davis Cup. Find another excuse to hate on him.

    As opposed to Hewitt who has been playing every single tournament of late :rolleyes:

    Are you a fan of Hewitt?

    He may be a tosspot as a human being, but when it comes to watching an athlete gut it out when their back is to the wall, no one does it better. He is the Arturo Gatti of tennis. So yeah, I'm a fan. P.S. F uck Rafter!
