    Firstly thank you, not seen that for years.... secondly what a fight!!!! Just amazing neither were known to be exciing but Littles had gone toe to toe with James Toney and shook him a little in a previous title fight.

    Spare a thought for Mitch Halpern probably one of the best refs ever. Killed himself a few years back, what shame. Rip

    I sometimes think that because the finish to some of Pac's fights are so overwhelming that people forget how exciting they are before it got to that point. I'm rambling, so enjoy this instead

    Love this one. Doesn't matter how well the opponent is boxing if you carry this kind of equaliser

    Rhodes just couldn't cut it a 160, its a real shame he didn't got straight back down to 154 after the Grant loss.

    I think Hatton vs Castillo is a decent fight..... the 3rd round is excellent.

    To think, some on here were complaining about Hattons excessive holding!!!

    :lol:

    I'd say the only fight he really took the **** was Urango..... I'd go as far as to say he ought to have had at leastone or maybe two points taken, possibly even be thrown out.

    As for other fights, there wasn't much in the Maussa fight, mainly semi-intentional headbutting by an awkward guy, Collazo there was a bit from both guys, then some more in the Lazcano fight late on.

    Against Mayweather and Malignaggi it was them doing most of the holding, Floyd obviously part of a deliberate plan, Paulie to survive..... then in the Pac fight he was hanging on for dear life in the 1st.

    If he had been penalised on one or more occasions there wouldn't be the controversy IMO.

    But what are you supposed to do..... just stand there and get blown away?
