    I put vcash on Lemieux. Then I vocally picked Saunders. Now I'm starting to revert back to my Lemieux pick.

    Solid and worthy main event.

    I'd be pretty content if David shatters some British Glass tonight.

    Good post. I hope youre right in that he does beat Saunders (might rekindle that fire for Lemieux) but I hope you are wrong on his training (but you are probably right)

    What the hell about him reminds you of Evander Holyfield?

    Round 3

    O'Sullivan is mowing Douglas across the ring with a jab behind a high turtle shell, bending his knees and passing his arms up a few inches while scrunching up his neck and burying it between his own shoulders to wait & hibernate while Douglas is going off on a machine-gun jabbing tangent while spiraling around him. Douglas circling in close with the jab and then widening out to the perimeter again. Most of Douglas' jabs hitting gloves. O'Sullivan getting in body shots and occasional glancing rights on the cheek, powerful but mitigated by Douglas' movement.

    10-9 O'Sullivan

    29-28 O'Sullivan

    i think you're referring to Marlen Esparza--who like Adams medaled in the flyweight division in the 2012 Olympics (bronze to Adams' gold)--very cute. Looks like a USC cheerleader

    I think Douglas is starting to tire, if Spike has any real ambition left he will win this.

    Idk... I kinda get the same way to be honest. Sometimes in boxing you just expect an apparent level of talent and skillset to perform a certain way against certain level of opposition. And when they dont, depending on the mood at that particular time, one can get an almost salty/snobby state of mind towards whats happening. (In fact, cruise through almost any round by round of a decent size and you can see that kind of attitude probably on display) Ive caught myself doing that so its possible its whats happening to Roy.

    Not saying its not more likely he has money on it, just saying a possible alternative that I myself have personally experienced.

    Round 1 O'Sullivan 10-9 Close
    Round 2 Douglas 10-9 Close
    Round 3 Douglas 10-9
    Round 4 O'Sullivan 10-9 Close

    Douglas is starting to wear down, it was tit for tat, but Gary landed the cleaner harder shots,
