    Nobody likes Flores because he is defensive-minded first. Even though, I think Ding won, Flores will not get into a war with Wayne. He'll outbox him, perhaps setting him up for the KO.

    You can't be serious. Flores won 9 or 10 rounds. Only Teddy Atlas scored the bout for Flores 115-114, and that was because he was trying to prove another one of his horrible predictions right. :rofl

    It was a wide decision. Ding is an ESB member though and a friend to many on here, so I can understand if that's where you're coming from.

    That's how I see this one unfolding.

    You made a dumb statement and I called you on it. Thats different than calling someone a b****!

    Thanks for proving my point. More childish insults 'Youre giving Bj a Bj hur hur hur' :patsch

    I can predict that this one goes the distance....... Braithwaite does have a good workrate and with Flores running around, BJ could very well be outworked...

    It was perfectly fought.
    He now fights another day....not dis-similar to Wladimir.

    Hayes has sparred with guys like the Klits, Arreola, and Flores and for him to praise and say Flores is the best cruiserweight in the world says something. alot of people including myself didn't think he was gonna get past barrett and he did in good fashion. i don't think he so full of **** after all. i think he can beat both ademak and wb. he's too fast and has a sneaky powerful right hand that will hurt any cruiser. ademak might be stronger on the inside, but flores will outbox him badly from the outside. it's time for flores to show what he's got

    Flores has one problem and that is inactivity. He fights infrequently and a boxer needs more actual ring activity not just sparring to keep sharp.

    Braithwaite has a Glass Jaw and I was not impressed by Flores when I saw him fight on ESPN a while back. I have no interest in this fight.

    Braithwaite has a glass jaw? That's bull****. He's taken some tremendous shots in the fights I've seen. He's only been knocked out once in his entire career.

    As to Flores v. Braithwaite, I'm afraid Brathwaite has looked a little war torn of late and that Flores can out hustle him to a decision.

    I seriously doubt Flores would knock him out.
