    I thought Mora had more fans, and I actually thought he would have been more of a draw then Taylor if they would have fought. When the show opened I thought it was a pretaped thing they were doing, they were actually lived. I also have come to the conclusion that Taylor would destroy Mora and Pavlik would kill him.

    Thoughts?

    Pavlik and Mora is a dream fight, lets make it happen.

    Mora better contract the same ref from the Manfredo vs. Calzaghe fight. :good

    A dream fight if your dream is to see Mora flattened in two.

    You don't get many fans by decisioning tomato cans and flat out refusing a match against an undisputed champion.

    Mora has a name because of the Contender, but I don't know if his fanbase is all that big. I think Peter Manfredo has a bigger fanbase than Sergio.

    I still figured based on the show, and the turnout of some of his other fights there would be more than 27 people there. I hope Mora wins this fight, because he'll need a beating to realize he isn't elite.

    I think William Hung has more of a fanbase at this point.

    I think the hermit crab vs lizard death matches I put on when I was a kid had more of a crowd.

    I'm sure those were epic battles.

    Mora is going to win this decision by 4 points, and it should be a draw or one point in favor of either fighter. Mora is awful. I don't call many fighters awful.

    The idea that Mora had a big fanbase was completely destroyed. How many did he draw 50 people? In providence Manfredo can draw near 10,000 fans. Mora lost the little respect he still had tonight.

    ya i was definately aurprised, i thought Mora had more fans, The Margotirto fight at the Home Depot Center was packed, it was on a Saturday but then again i would go watch my favorite fighters at anytime of the day or week if i really was a fan of them. I was expecting more people to show up for Gomez, they didnt show tho.

    Mora is a nobody. just a creation of reality TV and this contender show is nothing but crap. It would be interesting if they actually had decent fighters in there. What happened to Mora-Ouma. i really wanted to see him get beat.
