    You go to the dog track.

    There are 4 dogs lined up and ready to race. You have to put your house and all of your posessions on one of them.

    Their names are Guzman, Gamboa, Donaire, and Mijares.

    Which dog do you pick, and why?

    since it's a race, and not a fight, I'd pick Guzman. He's the fastest and most experienced runner of the group. lol

    Well, that just depends. I will let you decide.

    Do know though that all of your money rides on this decision. And also that the other 3 dogs will be placed on a Korean life boat in the Pacific to fend for themselves.

    Being that I've often punted at dog races, if I'm making this type of bet, I'm talking to the owners of each dog, finding out about their training recently, what their recent performances are.

    Then I'm going to look at the shine in their coat, how energetic they seem prior to the race, how fit and muscular they look.

    But for shits and giggles, I take Donaire. He's the only non Latino fighter. (I consider Cubans to be Latino)

    Bet on the one that takes a big crap on the way to the start. Its carrying less weight.

    For short term Id pick Mijares, hes got a unification match already lined up and is expected to fight Montiel afterwards. Plus if he moves up to bantamweight, I can see him being a dominant factor there since the division is semi-weak right now.

    For long term Id choose Gamboa, he looks like if managed properly he can win titles at 126,130,135,140 and 147. As long as he doenst ever break down mentally and has a good chin, then he is boxing's next greatest thing.

    I'd pick the one names "Dawson". He's sure to be a good dog!

    I was trying to reel in Pimp C but he didn't bite...:(

    ...don't worry...I am only trying to make Dawson v. Diaconu happen. If Dawson drops the belt, you won't hear anything about him from me anymore. ;)
