WOW Holyfield and his 2nd round TKO over some unknown fucker

Might be the real deal. The whole heavyweight division needs a superstar. :/

Boxing, where losing, is kinda like winning (monetarily that is)

Barrera vs. Juarez 2 tomorrow.

I really didn't like Juarez before because in one of the matches held in his hometown, he was against a Cuban Olympian boxer and it was obvious that the ref was on Juarez's side. His opponent was quite good but in every 3 of 10 punches he throws, the ref warns him for low blows until the warnings became point deductions. Halfway of the match Juarez was already leading with a lot of points even without landing puches. That was a really screwed up match. Umaga vs. some unknown jobber would have been more interesting.

But in his 1st match against Barrera, Juarez did land the more convincing blows and he should have won that. Boxing is quite a mystery. The only sure way you know the victory is your is when you put your opponent to sleep. Or if you paid the ref or judges good money.

Edit:
Barrera won via UD. He was the more well-conditioned boxer this time. Juarez couldn't even get close because of the jabs. He was forced out of his gameplan while Barrera stuck to his and sailed all the way to victory.

Been a while since people posted in here lately...

Anyway, Joe Calzaghe sure had a tough fight yesterday with Bika. You've got to say Bika can sure take his punches, even with Joe's flurry of combinations thrown at him. I was somewhat disappointed with the match simply becase I was secretly hoping for a Calzaghe v Lacy Version 2, but of course, it doesn't always live up to expectations.

Fuck yeah! Pacquiao beat Morales in 3 rounds! Hope he fights Barrera next.

Saw the Manny Pacquiao vs. Morales fight on saturday... Morales went down on three! He gave up!

Heh, I heard that Rey Mysterio was in the corner of his countryman Morales. Maybe PacMan should have come out with Dave Batista. That would have been pimpin.

In one of Pacquiao's recent matches, the Undertaker was part of his ring entourage. Apparently, 'Taker is a PacMan fan

Have you guys watched Ali Raps on ESPN? They talk about how Ali invented rap and if he wasn't around hip hop might have never been around. They had Rakim, Ludacris, MC Lyte, and some other people on there agreeing. They show alot of clips of him spitting but I don't think the first rappers got their influence from him.

I haven't....but yeah man, dude totally freestyled like no other...but his flow was more Dr. Seuss Mother Goose kinda shit

Pacquiao stops Jorge Solis on the 8th Round

Next big event is de la Hoya vs. Mayweather Jr. I have a feeling that one's not going to end via decision.
