    If Roy wanted to he could murder Trinidad, such a astonishing matchup in my opinion

    Bit on the fence with this one. Trinidad has traditionally had trouble with good boxers, so style wise I would say Roy. However, trinidad could very well hurt Roy if he decides to get lazy and sit on the ropes too long. What weight is this fight at? I can't see Roy being comfortable at 168.... At Light Heavy Roy will be much bigger, Titos power won't be a factor and he will get very soundly beaten by Roy. Lets just hope Roy won't lay on the ropes for extended periods of time though, as it will play into Tito's hands. At 168, a very weight drained Roy could be in trouble, but likewise a bloated Trinidad might still be ineffective. Personally I don't care that much about this fight, it is really a joke in many aspects. I just wish they would both retire and save tarnishing their legacies anymore. However that said, Trinidads name on Roys resume regardless of age is still a good one.

    this fight was made to give darch his swagger back. he lost it all in the donaire loss. i really hope he bounces back. i really want to see a rematch between him and nonito. i'm just curious what vic could bring in the table this time as he'd know for sure that throwing haymakers won't work against donaire

    Would be good to see for sure. The guy is a very likable and exciting fighter. BTW good to see you providing some input in the AUS forum. Keep up the good work.

    you showed guts - many outsiders have ventured in the Aussie forum, seen that it has no rules and left screaming :lol:

    those were all probably mundine nuthuggers. you battered those guys to submission. if i were a mundine nuthugger, i wouldn't last here for sure. :D . i don't know much about aussie boxing but i make it a point to see vids of the fighters who get mentioned in here. i mostly post threads that are more general. but yeah, you're cool people. i like it here. and thanks for the welcome

    Manny is the favourite fighter of many guys on this forum and one of my personal favourites, whats not to like about him.

    Ranae Ganoy is also an aussie forum favourite, we are stealing him now you cant have him back. :D

    Thats cool mate. You are very unbiased IMO. Usually you can pick a phillipino boxing fan from a mile away.
