    Honestly, you're right. Something isn't right with him. You could see it in his eyes in about the 3rd round. He stopped reacting to things and just had this look like he was looking past everyone.

    Strange.

    Spikes the kind of opponent GGG still ruins. Good fight to watch while it lasts

    That was a very good and merciful stoppage by the ref, poor Douglas took too many hard flush shots and had been gradually breaking down for the last few rounds and he was badly hurt by that sequence that dropped him at the end.

    Not yet. They need to build him up with a few solid guys. I like his face, it's almost like a Fight Night character.

    I think you mean Spike vs. Lemieux, regardless of the main event outcome (we have already seen him versus Saunders and I don't think a rematch would look or go too differently)

    Well done to Spike. Love to see an old work horse like him get his day in the sun. Hopefully they give him a big payday now.

    We traded upsets again.:lol:


    You picked Ulysse and I picked Seldin.
    You picked Douglas and I picked Spike.

    O'Sullivan vs. Stevens and/or Rosado needs to happen next.

    Martinez started in his early 20's. Not sure about Marciano or Browne. My point is becoming a great fighter or even a world champion after starting boxing post 25 with no amateur or fighting career means you're the exception. Hell I'd argue even Cletus is an exception. Most people who try to make it pro post 25 don't make it as far as he did.

    Douglas needs a brain scan. He went down strange, got up strange, looked strange before that.

    Not exactly tired. Just strange.
