    Whats your take fellas?

    Here's a few to get everyone started:

    Brady V Guerrero- Manner of defeat by a 40yr old fighter plagued with injuries - Shock
    Salido v Lopez - Salido can be dangerous but I dont think many would have predicted this - Was looking forward Juanma v Gamboa.
    Isida v Kirkland - Manner of defeat of Kirkland by a virtually unknown fighter - Shock
    Haye v Wlad - Hayes Performance and the overall fight itself. Disappointment
    Solis v Vitali - Could have been an interesting contest, Solis made attempts to get inside and was having some success until the knock down/injury or whatever you want to call it. Disappointment.
    Morales v Maidana - Morales' performance, need I say any more - Shock and the decision possibly a dissapointment? I had it a draw tbh.

    Couple of additions based on feedback:

    Mosley's Performance v Pacman - Disappoitment/Shock
    Bradley Ducking Khan - Disappointment
    Pacman v Mayweather not happening in 2011 - Disapointment
    Ortiz v Floyd - Disappointment
    Dawson v Hopkins - Disappointment

    Mosley going ***** vs pac and bradley ducking khan.
    I expected haye to lose like he did vs wladimir if they fought.
    I felt sad for morales that he didnt get the decision but im not dissapointed in him since everyone including myself thought he would get murdered by maidana, that was one of the most impressive fights imo.

    THIS!

    I am so disappointed with how Mosley fought in the Mayweather and Pacquiao fights... Seriously, who would have thought that Shane would become such a negative fighter...

    Also, Judah throwing away his last chance... Shouldn't have been surprising, yet I really believed he had finally gained the maturity and mental stability he needed... In the end it was the same old Judah...

    Finally, Haye proved that he is the worst. I never liked him, but I expected him to bring the fight to Wlad. I thought he may end up being a part of the most exciting heavy weight boxing match in years... In the end he showed himself to be a blown up Judah. Plenty talented, absolutely no heart or will.

    Well mosley was old and had nothing on pac. He knew he'll get destroyed when open too much so he choosed clottey style- boring but effective. He was there just for a payday. I'm sure prime mosley would give a tough fight to pac.

    Yeah, Mosley against Pacquiao was the biggest disappointment (almost as bad as his attitude straight after), and Salido beating JML was the biggest shock.

    And this

    Total BS, but if you believed it then it's your own fault

    I live in Britain and I couldn't believe how long the odds were on Wlad, so I took them and made a mint
