    Someone posted earlier that Harris isn't even a full time pro. He's 29 so still has 3 good years at least in him if he lives the life which looks to be the case and he might just be able to push on to that next level to gain a world title. Can definately see him getting another title shot down the line on the strength of that performance.

    Good Morning, Good Evening you bunch of gits.


    Martinez Vs Harris was a really entertaining watch, i really enjoyed it and delighted Harris got to hear the final bell, he deserved to.

    Chocolatito was snubbed for Fighter of the Decade by not even being mentioned. I'm on Team Chocolatito from now on for this travesty. :ggg

    That was a beautiful fight to see. Here's my take:


    Jay Harris: he needs to give up that Amazon warehouse job and take up boxing full-time. Maybe him & his father could hook up with a reputable trainer with to increase the experience (Jay Harris father is a former boxer which is good enough but like AJ did, you can always improve). Jay Harris is 29 1/2 years old and huge at this weight, he has the potential to pick up a belt for sure. He has a lotta fight in him.

    Julio Cesar Martinez: Gee, what a fighter. One thing the commentators hardly mentioned was that Martinez has great defense, he was catching many punches on his gloves from his high guard and he was also parrying a good number of body-shots thrown at him. Martinez own body-shots were sickly and nauseating to see and hear landing.

    Sadly for Chocollatito. Tonight, I think for him, he's coming to the......

    And since it's Yafai that'll probably do it to him, it's going to be extra depressing.:ohno

    Hooker already seems off, isn't speaking as well as he should, that beating from Ramirez was savage.... maybe he should think about retiring. He's going to be pummeled by The Rougarou and he doesn't have a chance against anyone else at 147.

    I'm really torn with this fight, I really like both men and honestly can't pick a winner with any real confidence.

    Leaning towards Yafai, but like I say.. not confident.
