    I think its' safe to say that neither one of these guys are going to be major players at 154lbs. They looked awful.

    Who was dogging your card? I was responding to the judges.

    A clean punch landed right before that and caused Greene to go off balance in the first place.

    You guys score missing shots and dont score harder shots. The vast majority of marty;s shots that fight were arm punches, not very hard and save a few rds there were close rds.

    So it comes down to do u score a busier fighter who misses a lot but works harder or a guy who throws less but lands the cleaner harder blows.

    My scorecard for this fight was spot on, take a look at the official cards

    It's a simple observation -- If this fight is exciting, it's a Cotto victory. If it's a stinker, Foreman will take the W.

    Nah, Vanes is a decent fighter. The division isn't that deep, he'll probably grab a belt.

    Saw that as well. Doesn't excuse Smoger for his snafu but there was definitely more to it than just a pushdown.
