Post of the year? Well, there are a couple weeks left yet. (I figure Stonehands89 for 2010 Poster of the Year, Burt Bienstock for newcomer 2010...
:thedevil1Thank you for the feedback. I've provided myself with the most evil laugh I've enjoyed in months thinking about poster reactions to that...
At least Carter did get a shot. Joey wanted to defend against Papp, who got sidelined by the Hungarian authorities.
Duran also took some flush, head spinning, sweat flying shots without flinching. For me, this was the most listless, disinterested Duran I ever...

Well articulated, and certainly his natural temperament equates more closely to that of Patterson than the public image of Duran's heyday. Through...
Yes, an unwary Holmes did seem more stunned by Snipes than he was by Shavers. Renaldo's power looked completely nonexistent against Cummings,...
