    I've dislocated my left shoulder twice and I honestly don't know how the hell he kept going after that. It is a truly sickening horrible feeling; you just want to lie down and hope you don't puke.

    Got mad respect for Paulie.

    1) He takes a beating off Cotto like a man.
    2) He wanted to carry on getting a beating from Hatton.
    3) He told Texas what the **** was up after the Diaz diabolical.

    I hope to god he wins this weekend.

    Agreed. When he fought Cotto I was hoping that Guido would get a beating, and even though he did I became a huge fan. He was under a lot of pressure and was taking heavy shots but he came back and had a lot of great moments. If that mans hands weren't so brittle he could really be something.

    Ricky Hatton,...though I think at his best he was better then guys like Ward and Gatti...I never thought Hatton was great, but always liked his fights, I know some dont with the wrestling and all.

    I've been an Emmanuel Augustus and Librado Andrade nuthugger for years.

    Miguel cotto! , Gatti, on the Cotto one remember we said THAT great, he is a great warrior, but not the greatest boxer. i.e. when he's hurt, the backwards dance with no holding?
