    For anyone that hasnt seen it watch Jo Jo Dan against Selcuk Aydin. I thought Dan looked brilliant and cant see how he wasnt given the decision

    Saw that on Eurosport the other week, have to agree. Cannot believe how high some ratings have Aydin.

    I thought Jo Jo Dan looked excellent with great movement and good combinations and think he could be a dark horse of the WW division if given the chance

    Believe it or not I tuned in to Pavlik/McKart expecting to see Bronco take this skinny midwestern kid to school. Afterward, I knew Pavlik would end up beating Taylor.

    Salvador Sanchez/Danny Lopez. There is a bit of mythology attached to that fight. The myth says Sal simply out boxed Little Red. He did out box him, and frequently played the counter puncher. However, he also spent considerable time right in the pocket. He took Red's best shots, and did not even blink. Jesus what a chin.

    Arguello/Mancinni. Boom Boom got a big push from CBS and the boxing media. I thought he was just a media darling, and a bit of a hype job. When he gave the great
    Alexis Arguello all he could stand for 12 rounds, obviously, I changed my mind.

    Those are the first 3 that come to mind. I'll probably think of some others later.
