Man, I would seriously consider killing someone for some ice cream right now. I don't care what flavor. I may even mame someone for some sherbert.
Oquendo was boring, but I've seen far worse than that. Albert-Edourd was pretty decent for this level of fight card, it wasn't anything great, but it was mildly entertaining and I'd rate it as better than so-so. You're too picky.
Oquendo sucks and E. Castillo sucks worse. Terrible fight and main event, if Hagler werent in studio, this would have almost been a waste of space and time. As for Albert vs Edouard???? Nothing special but great compared to the main stinky event:good Albert won via volume and agressivness. SHAME, SHAME, SHAME on Edouards corner, they stopped that fight a round too late. Edouard told them he couldnt see out of his right eye befor the 7th started and they allowed the whole 7th round to happen. It was OBVIOUS EDouard was telling the truth and having problems as EVERY LEFT HAND ALBERT THREW IN THE SEVENTH ROUND LANDED!!! Edouard couldnt see them coming. It wasnt from swelling so that isnt a good sign, perhaps a detached retina?? I hope not and hope that the guy gets better and gets his sight back in that eye. If I never, ever, ever, EVER saw Oquendo or E. castillo fight again????:happy :happy :happy Neither are any sort of viable player or 'live opponent" in the HW division.
What do you think of Albert as a player at 154/160? :think I've only seen him the one time in a dominating win over a shot YBC.
It did suck, and what's worse is i've recently defended Oquendo as I had liked to watch him in the past. That was crap. Last card on ESPN Fres was knockin the **** out that Norris dude.
There's a local publication here in Miami that wrote an article about Castillo talking about how he wants to be champ and everything. I read it and all I could say to myself was "Oh please!" Non-boxing fans probably read it and thought to themselves "Oh i better check this guy out." Bunch of idiots. Anyway, I was working during the fight and I'm glad. Oquendo sucks. He deserved the nod against Byrd but didn't get it. I thought he edged Holyfield but he fought like a ***** so I have no probalem with the decision. Plus, I'm a Holyfield fan.
