    Big night tonight!:D

    Paul Willaims- Sergio Martinez for Losfers thread, 116-114 Martinez ( Williams got the nod inc. a shocking 119-110 card from Dave Paris)

    Emanuel Augustus - Micky Ward. Ring FOTY. Great fight but with dodgy a 98-90 card (Dave Paris again, I think)

    Bruce Curry - Monroe Brooks. A grudge match between friends. I;ve seen it before but its a hell of a fight

    O'Sullivan-Brown. What was Shawns team thinking of for an 11-0 prospect? His manager, Ray Leonard, had sparred with Brown and the only man to beat him was Marlon Starling.

    Watched the full Alexander - Kotelnik fight last night and wished I hadn't....I truly believe that judges on the whole are honourable men who score a fight as they see it, those judging this fight must have thought they were scoring shadow boxing. What the **** was Alexander doing spinning off Kotelnik, making angles when he was out of range :huh...pointless

    Is it really that bad? I haven't seen the fight yet (going to watch it today). What was your scorecard?

    I think it is but I am reticent calling anything a robbery but I had it 117-112 to Kotelnik....he actually landed meaningful shots...Alexander was mostly hitting air.

    Ishy is way too busy being lazy to bother coming on here...the work shy twat probably hasn't got out of his pit yet.

    Workrate means **** all unless you have an end product. Alexander was very busy indeed but he was landing nothing

    Honestly bud some of them were arguing that very fact.

    Whilst I had it 117-111 Kotelnik, some of the cards being posted up by some of them was a joke.

    Then of course there was Lederman's card, but I think we will draw a line under that one because that beyond funny, in fact it was downright disgraceul.

    Right, its just that I've seen some wide cards that gave those rounds to Kotelnik and I just couldn't see it myself. Sounds like were of the same opinion.
