    Hmmm. I went looking yesterday as it was about time for his 'Seconds Out' column. Didn't find it. Thought uncharitably that he might be slacking or having a week off. Couldn't have been more wrong; looks like he's dropped the motherlode.

    Reading it now ...

    Hauser keeps his anti-hobo sentiments very close to his chest, though if you've ever seen him when he's drunk, he'll talk about internment camps and sterilization for hours.

    Excellent Article. Am looking forward to the next couple of segments.

    Thought this was very interesting:

    It might explain some of the credibility issues people have had with various editions of 24/7. If you're footing the bill, I imagine you get a reasonable amount of editorial control.

    the points about berto and dawson are very true. a lot of money has been wasted on those two. its not too say that they are bad fighters, but they really haven't earned the hype or $$$ that they have been given.

    Good article (for real)

    But nothing that hasn't already been said.

    Good point, Raises the question of how much the evidence of pac 'struggling' in training is accurate and how much of it is just manufactured to hype the fight

    I have said it before and I will say it again.Kerry Davis is way out of his element and is the reason for HBO's failures these past few years.Di Bella was the man and HBO let him get away.
