    Mansour is a good person. I'm rooting for him to get a shot against someone down the line.

    Great fights. Nights like these make me fall more in love with boxing. If such a thing is possible.

    Nice guy. I'm usually stone cold to whatever athletes have to say, but I genuinely felt sorry for him.

    Good interview by Mansour. Definitely rooting for him for bigger and better things in the future. There's plenty of fish out there for him, hopefully he gets one of the big names out there.

    Difference is Mansour didn't need rabbit punches.

    In all fairness, a guy with 6" and 50 lbs is usually going to win.

    Yeah, because he had a big ****ing ogre mauling him and being a ****.

    50 pound advantage didn't help either.

    **** was a freak show, might as well of been the bumbling Primo Carner against Jack Sharkey.

    Fights like that just don't need to happen.

    Especially when not warned over fouls and permitted to knock people down and out with them.

    Steve isn't stupid enough to trade with Wilder, he would be outside jabbing him the whole fight. Wilder wouldn't beat him.
