    Yeah...next time I decide to predict a fight for Kirk's league, remind me to do so using some semblance of logic, rather than picking strictly based on allegiance to someone who fights out of my home country, and the city of my birth (Montreal).

    Lo Greco over Porter!? The hell was I thinking changing my pick to that at the last moment. :verysad

    Round 10

    Lo Greco charges out with a right hand and left hook, trying for a hail-Mary KO. Porter counters with a 1-2, then moves in and ties up. Jab-and-grab by Porter. Smart, but not exciting. Lo Greco is rushing in and gets check hooked into a faceplant. Lo Greco rises and immediately snatches Porter in a bear hug before he can get much off, although Porter does look to be intent on finishing him. The ref breaks the clinch and Lo Greco looks to apply yet another. Porter hooks into his ribs and slams over the top with his right. Lo Greco grabs Porter and flips him around, dry-humping his butt a`la Hopkins vs. Calzaghe and buying time until the bell.

    10-8 Porter

    100-88 Porter

    Hey, I just got here.

    WTF? The fight hasn't even started yet on Showtime. Are we getting a delayed-broadcast o is this undercard only being broadcast overseas?

    In fairness to you, Drew, Porter did look quite mortal and less and less a "prospect" in his most recent outings, especially the one against Kidd. :thumbsup

    If Lo Greco was even half as good as his record suggested, he would've been a game live dog here. (as it turns out, he wasn't...that zero was padded like a Sealy Posturepedic :!:)

    What are you moping about?

    You didn't actually have faith in "The Italian Sensation", did you? :blood

    If you want to back a welterweight sharing your heritage, Leo Bundu is your man. :good

    Yeah, earlier on the ShoX portion of the card. I was busy putting my son to bed during all that, but wasn't much fussed. I'm not high on either of them really.

    I thought it would be at least competitive. That was a schooling.
