    I was aware that Basilio accomplished little at middleweight. I guess now I'm not sure why he put him in that list. You're right. Thought, I still would have loved to see a fight btwn Tiger and Basilio, which I think would have been super competitive despite a Tiger victory.

    boy is that the truth! Really I don't mind changing my mind on a topic though. You guys have talked me out of giving Mugabi such good chances.

    You do have to defend yourself sometimes in your posts, I sure have learned that. Do not be a Yes Man to satisfy a few, but do respect the opinions of others.

    Seems a few here aren't happy until they make somebody cry uncle. No need to explain yourself to people like that.

    That is the truth, I remember a few months back when I was banned, I was fortunate to have the support of posters like you and many others. Just letting William know that sometimes a poster needs to stick to his guns.

    Sometimes it can take some back and forth to figure out if someone is just getting into a conversation or pushing their agenda though.

    While I completely agree with this entire post, there's a distinct difference between 'handling' and being competitive. Mugabi being competitive is very different from Mugabi coming close to winning.

    Tons. Littles down once in round 1, once in round 2, and once in round 3. Liles down twice in round 2 and once in round 3. You really should see it. I watched it just a few weeks ago. Action-packed and foul-filled. One of the best three-rounders ever.
