    I don't read the articles produced by ESB. Vivek is the reason that articles in ESB don't have credibility for me. The forum is superb but not the front page.

    Btw, what is the name of Vivek in the boxing forum?

    When anyone picks the massive underdog to win and they end up getting a shellacking they should be exposed and their reputation take a hit for it. You can be sure if Mosley had won this guy would have went on at length about how and why he picked him in the first place. Maybe if people are called up on terrible picks more often the boxing media would improve it's game

    This is about what Al Bernstein said when talking about Mayweather vs Pac: You can't beat Pac unless you throw punches, take a chance. So, to beat him, you probably have to be able to hurt him or at least make him respect your power.

    Say whaaaaaat?!?! But...but...I thought Pac INVENTED the catchweight? Oh wait..it only appears that way since most Floyd fanboys only got into boxing a few years ago. Honest mistake. My apologies... :oops:
