    Does anybody like Simms chances? What shot do you give him?

    How about Crawford/Smith? Who wins that...?

    He has - he's definitely the bigger brother (though still tiny compared to Green)

    Travis is the one who was considered as having a very good chance of dominating 154 when he went on a tear including impressive wins over Terra Garcia, Bronco McKart, and then a destruction of Jose Antonio Rivera to reclaim his WBA strap after two years of inactivity before he was derailed by Joachim Alcine.

    Then Alcine himself inherited the title of "the man" at LMW and seemed unbeatable, before Daniel Santos got ahold of him.

    I"m glad Showtime has Curt Menafee announcing. That is a great stepup in terms of their announcing talent.

    Johnson looks like he is ready to step up. He looks great. I hope teaming up with Dibella gets him out there. He certainly is impressing me.

    None whatsoever. He's not taking a decision in Oklahoma vs Green, and I don't think he hits hard enough for the knockout. Easy money betting on Green in my eyes.

    Beautiful KD by Johnson. Kid looks smoother in the ring than Dirrell and Ward.

    Ah sorry!! It just seemed that you might fancy a cheeky punt on the old pro beating the raw prospect at long odds.......:think;)

    WOW!

    Crawford clinching for dear life...I'm not a fan of overuse of this tactic but that was very impressive that he was able to walk through the storm and tie up to make it through the round. He had traversed ***** St. and taken a turn on Bukkake Boulevard. :shock:
