    I'm half debating whether to pick McEwan to appease HH and give you guys some interest. Something to slate me on tomorrow. Or something where I can laugh at all you gays that picked differently.

    I don't know how tough he is though. If he's going to win, he's only going to win by outlasting Lee as his punch technique and speed is abysmal.

    True, but he should be. This is his biggest fight.

    I don't think this is like the odds suggest. Where Lee is a landslide favourite. McEwan is a bit unorthodox and untidy if you ask me. But he's tougher than Andy Lee, Andy Lee is pathetic in close. It's going to be hard for him to deal with the handspeed of Andy Lee on the outside but as long as he stays in there he'll get into this fight I feel. If it was 12 I'd be more confident to pick McEwan.

    According to the Las Vegas Review-Journal, when Ricardo Mayorga is taking punches from Miguel Cotto tonight, 90% of his purse will go to promoter Don King. Mayorga's purse was reported to the Nevada Athletic Commission as $500,000 but when he signed for an MMA fight in late 2009, King went to court and won a lawsuit against Mayorga. Mayorga signed for the MMA fight after King stopped getting him fights for over a year, but when King went to court, the MMA fight never happened. As a result of the lawsuit, the Las Vegas newspaper reports that King will take $450,000 as payment on the judgment, leaving Mayorga with $50,000 to split up among his trainer, cutman, manager and himself. Cotto is listed as making $1,000,000 for tonight's pay-per-view event.
