    Barrett should retire after that...but didn't make the announcement in his aftermath interview (once he, you know, WOKE UP).

    In fact, he expressed interest - albeit mild interest - in a rematch. :-(

    He clearly needs to retire... I expected even shot to **** Barrett to be able do this to Cameron, not the other way 'round. :verysad

    Still not sure why you were so confident of that, man. :yep

    Even prime Barrett was chinny, and Shane does pack a bit of a mean punch.

    This was two heavies with the potential to hurt each other, whoever landed big first.

    The Under was safe money. Monte wasn't. :thumbsup

    You have a point (certainly with 20/20 hindsight), but Shane is much 'chinnier' (new word?!) as Barrett ever was. And Barrett just is the better boxer of the two... or so I thought. :D

    Sorry, but no. Same glass and comparable power, IMO. :conf

    And Shane can box some. He was up on the cards against Ahunanya and within a minute of beating him by clear comfortable UD when he gassed and got stopped. (shades of Taylor vs. Froch). Had he not been caught cold very early by Tua there is an excellent chance he'd have taken a 120-108 or wider shutout over him...maybe even knocked him down. Hey, if shot Barrett did it... :!:

    Yeah... the 'Sugar' Shane Cameron KO floating around here is a bit wonky. We need a better (BB) one. :good

    We got like five different angles of it during the live broadcast. (haven't seen that YT highlight clip or the GIFs yet - at work now, shitty computer - so I'm not sure which one you guys are seeing).

    You should just confront your boss with your problem...
    Show him you can't even watch YT's and Gifs at your workstation, I'm sure that will convince him to upgrade the hardware. :hey
