    Bruce Curry was a good fighter.

    If you haven't seen it already watch his fight with Monroe Brooks. Truly. Unbelievable. Fight.

    The man in my avatar also had a great fight with Brooks....no footage :-(

    I saw some footage of your man the other day, though I don't remember what fight it was (one of his colour ones, though).

    I thought he looked terrific. Movement was amazing.

    Rafa took 5 rounds off Nishioka.

    Nishioka is becoming even more overrated off the back of it for some reason, despite the fact Rafa couldn't even throw a combination.

    Muangsurin? I always felt him quite clumsy, but then, that's why he was so awkward.

    If it's someone else, please share ;-)

    Silky Jones would've schooled Harry Simon.

    When you said movement I was sure you were on about Payakaroon ;-) To make it easier, Payakaroon=122lber, Muangsurin=140lber. One is beautiful, the other one ugly.

    yeah, amazing footwork and defence. How did you stumble across him?

    If it's the Fenech fight, he was ****ed at the weight against an ATG. Just couldn't keep up his boxing for long enough and got pummelled by Fenech at the peak of his powers.

    But IMO Payakaroon was clearly Thailands most able fighter.

    I felt Marco Antonio Barrera defeated Erik Morales on three seperate occasions.

    Larry Merchant is infinitely more watchable than either of the Klitschko brothers.

    Nonito Donaire would defeat Carlos Zarate at Bantamweight, and maybe by stoppage.

    Can't remember what fight it was, unfortunately.

    He caught my eye instantly though.

    Nah, Zarate blows him away, I got a theory Nonito doesn't like fighting bigger guys and Zarate would be bigger (well, taller ;-)).

    Nonito has benefited greatly from 24 hour rehydration periods.

    Your theory is completely and utterly baseless. You were also responsible for telling me that Darchinyan would win a rematch, even though it was apparent to everyone else, including Stevie Wonder, that Donaire was on a different planet to Vic. Sorry Flea, you're my brah, but I find it difficult to take you seriously when it comes to Donaire. You clearly don't like the guy or want to see him succeed.

    Donaire wins, and wins in style.
