    Freitas when he quit against Diaz. Against Corrales I cut him som e slack because he got up and kept trying but was just outmatched. Against Diaz he quit on his feet and just seemed like he wasn't even trying. LIke he had a game plan and the minute it didn't go exactly as he planned he quit because he couldn't deal with the adversity. I guess Corrales just permanantly took his heart.

    I was so pissed off with that fight, I had money on it going long, and it was at the back of my mind that he already quit, but Diaz isnt a big puncher I thought...

    That and Jorge Arce get humiliatesd and schooled by whats his face.. That was distressing.

    I think there were an awful lot of Brits routing for Tyson that night.

    Jones-Tarver III

    WHen Jones decided to be Jones, he made Tarver look like ****...But most of the time he decided not to be. :-(

    I'm a big Cotto fan and don't think he let me down. He did all he can.

    True and i watched it at my house with my mates and one of them is the biggest Lewis fan and braggart the world has ever seen, total gobshite.

    I never lived it down, the thing is most Lewis fans act as though Tyson was in his prime.

    Roy Jones.

    I can understand the KO loss. It was shocking but i wasn't disappointed in RJJ for getting caught. What got me was his performance against Johnson and Tarver 3. He didn't want it. He was AFRAID to engage. That got to me. He was always talking about he's a warrior but he didn't show it in those fights. He fought so afraid.

    RJJ vs Tarver 3. Jones could have won it...he just fought to survive.

    Recently, Calzaghe vs. B-Hop. Morales against Pac the third time was absolutely devastating.

    Davey Moore losing to Roberto Duran, though the thumb probably had a lot to do with it.
