that barrera/rocky fight lastnight was kinda boring........
kinda my azz......that fight sucked. i'm very dissapointed in both fighters. why was Rocky scared this time around? Barrera has reduced himself to a boxer, he IS NOT fighting like the Mexican warrior he once was. he knew standing toe to toe was a huge risk for him so he used his superior boxing skills to avoid brawling. he also did a large amount of hugging/clinching, which is just not something that MAB used to do. peace...
I'm glad I didn't order it if it was that bad. Did Barrera win big or was it close?
Barrera controlled the fight pretty much. won by like 5-6 points on most score cards. not much action or exchanges due to Barrera's style in the fight. Be glad you saved your dough for Pac/Morales 3! Peace-
Damn that fight sounded boring. I don't even think they showed the rerun on HBO last weekend. Is anyone going to watch the Contender championship tommorow? I think Steve Forbes should win easily. He has it all and really the only stand out boxer from the series imo. The other guy Brewer, won a 5rd fight after getting knocked down in the first round.(47-47,48-46, & 49-46?????) How does 49-46 add up after the winner was knocked down in the first round? There goes that Contender judging again.
haha yeah, they're trying to be as close as possible to the big Vegas PPV's. you know, the "legit" boxing organizations lol. Peace-Quote:

Yea that fight was boring. The guy that won wouldn't stop holding. Any boxing news lately?
-PBF/Baldomir 11-04
-Pac/Morales 11-18
-Corralles fight is on Showtime "Free Preview" weekend if you have cable
-and DLH has finally said the only fighter that he would ever face would be PBF. Tito's out of the picture for good.
pbf / baldo
pac /moral will be good fights.
the pbf fight has the air of uncertainty. pbf can lose...baldo aint bad..
havent been here for ages... my net has been down.
'Sup Princerai?! You're not nervous for your boy are ya lol? Peace-
Nobody watched Nicolay (The Giant) 'The Beast from the EAST' Valuev against Monte 'Two Gunz' Barrett?? :p

sad what became of mike tyson. he really need them dollars:

i am actually, i read the Ring and although they sorta back PBF, they have pointed out certain aspects about Baldo that clearly suggest that PBF aint gon be able to dominate with his loud style.Quote:

peace benzo, novemberrr!
lol that guy, he should get himself a simple job. it wnt bring bucks, but at least he wont be raped by the media and then shat on others.Quote:

Valuev is truly great, but his attributes arent so marketable. IMO
but much respect to him, hope he keeps consistent.
^yep, ^yep, ^and yep. peace!
yo tyson is fighting a 4 round fight on ppv for $30 lol at any one who waste money on this
Yeah, it's sad. He keep saying in the press confrences that he's not out to hurt anyone, he just wants to have fun, and doesn't care if he wins or loses the bouts. Sounds pretty fuckin exciting, eh?
c'mon man he outweighed barrett by over 100 pounds... that's just a size mismatch... there's nothing great about that win whatsoever... people blew up when castillo went in overweight against corrales but no one has said a word about the fact that this talentless hack should be in a separate superheavy weight division...Quote:

heavyweights arent my fav arena right now..
yeh the division is in shambles... and it's getting worse before it's getting better... i guess you're right about valuev though... as long as he's the champ, they can just market the fight as david vs goliath...Quote:

I've been gone for a min, whats up everyone? ^^^ I agree with you that there is too many weight classes, but if they would to take some out, i'd say at the most three. I think the one thing they need to fix is the championship belts. One main champion belt for each class, not like 10, then boxing would be generalized better.
you raised a good point. The Ring had an issue out trying to suggest what things could change in boxing in order to make boxing better.Quote:

sup rynmur? i also agree with the belts, there are too many "world champions" in each category. It diminishes the value of having a belt in the first place.Quote:

Right now, Ive seen some random fighters holding belts, who walk around big for no reason.
peacee
add in the fact that Golden Boy and Top Rank are less than willing to work with each other and we have a sad situation with boxing right now.
What's good prince? Yea, it's funny when boxers walk around with a NABO belt and think they can't be fucked with. I'm still waiting for November: Baldomir v. Mayweather, then Klitschko v. Brock & Morales v. Pacquiao. There is going to be some great boxing in the next two months. Peace.

mayweather himself said that he has respect for

now thats true, hes a strong argentinian. however, floyd still is for me a better fighter.
yes, PBF may have dodged some big names, but baldomir proves he has credibility. Mayweather trains hard, and he wont disappoint.
No KO tonight, I think PBF is careful enough and Baldo strong enough to avoid a KO.
I also say UD for PBF like rynmur04!
peace guys
wheresss benzooooo??????? :P haha
well yeah, i suppose mayweather can't always produce a classic, but he apparently showed class to beat Baldomir by U.D., as correctly predicted by rynmur04!
im still waiting to watch the fight, def want to see Mayweather fight what he claims to be his second last fight.
He wants Oscar to organise something to end PBF's career, on a high of course.
I believe PBF would win against Oscar, but whatever happens, PBF was by far a great boxer.
Yes, Benzo's argument that PBF didn't always fight the right fighter at all times still maintains a stone in PBF's name, but then again,
PBF did try and beat big names.
Legend!
