    3 rounds into Wlad-Fury i thought to myself "Okay, its time to turn it up". 20 Seconds into the fourth i knew Fury had the fight.

    The Pacman vs FMJ fight. I knew it was over as soon as Manny had FMJ on the ropes, unleashed a few shots and for some unknown reason jumped back out of range, whcih let FJM off the hook. Forgot what round it was but the fight was over for me right there.

    Really? That late? There were serious signs of decline way before then.

    Lowest point or where the curve starts trending downward? I always understood it to mean the latter. The half-life delineator.

    Pretty significant distinction, not just semantics.

    I think most agree the majority of Happy Days episodes before the shark were of higher quality whole those following sucked progressivley more.

    Definitely the latter, Jon Hein has discussed it ad nauseam on Howard, basically when the chinks in the armor first showed up.

    I love that we still have a word filter on "chinks". When is the last time anybody on here even attempted using that in the context of a racial slur?

    The only places the word "chinks" is still actively in use are Southie and Dorchester.

    I could tell from he first round it was over for both Manny and Wlad, and neither had a chance. Especially with Pacquiao-Mayweather. Quite frankly Wlad's ringwalk gave off that vibe as well.
