    They're broadcasting the 10-round fight tonight between Canadian heavyweight champion Neven "No Surrender" Pajkic and American Raphael Butler. Pajkic (pronounced Pie-kitch) is 32 and no big puncher, but he goes in there to win, not just to collect his money. Too bad some of the more talented heavies don't have his heart. Maybe he'll inspire some young guy to quit MMA or football and try his luck in the ring.

    No Surrender!

    Canadian heavyweight champ?

    How do you win that title? A raffle?

    Decent fighters such as Chuvalo, Ruddick, and Berbick have held the title.

    I see this bout isn't for the canadian title...dumb question, but can national titles only be "on the line" between two fighters from that nation? I guess it wouldn't make sense for Butler to be the Canadian champion...if he wins, that is.
