    Blew up in size and muscle at an advance age, unlimited stamina in 3 and 4, refused VADA testing in the Bradley fight, and then had a million pimples on his chest and back in the Alvarado fight and sent a 165 pound Alvarado flying literally halfway across the ring. All the proof needed.

    Agree, I dont know any casual who enjoys watching black and white boxing.

    I myself need to be in the right mood to watch it too. Not everyday I enjoy watching old B&W films. Had I to entertain my casual audience I would not use B&W footage.

    beers + short/medium fights + lots of kos/kds + turn around fights = casual fun

    long 15 rounds fights + decided on points + in black and white = your casual friends will never come back to your home again to watch boxing.

    Nah. Pac hand speed dipped once he was above 135. And he looked significantly slower after KTFO6.

    brewster - liakhovic is a cracker, or vitali - lennox.
    everybody loves a good HW barn burner and the 'oos! and ahhs!' that come with the good ones.

    Current fighters aren't a bad idea, might get them wanting to watch some of other boxers next fights. Both Inoue and Donaire are fighting in the next couple months.

    Lusito Espinosa vs Kennedy McKinney (Brutal)

    These are a few fun ones you may have not seen.

    Some all action fights that consistently fly under the radar:

    Gatti vs Ruelas
    Letterlough vs Gonzalez
    Gonzalez vs Kelley
    and to some extent Sanchez vs Gomez
