    I'm not gonna argue with children. If you knew anything about boxing, you'd admit that the Golota of '96 who totally schooled Bowe (minus the low blows) was the best HW to burst on the scene in a long time. Technically, he was something to marvel at. He was just ****ed in the head.

    Like you.

    That's a little harsh. They should be shot?? The fight kept me entertained.

    I watch boxing to be entertain. I don't watch it for it to see who can throw the most technical crisp punch. This is prize fighting. Its about knocking the **** out of your opponent to make more money.

    If you find this boreing go ****ing watch golden glove with the head gear. Where its about scoreing and not entertainment. As lone as money is involve i want to see these guys try and KO each other.

    96-94 Mendoza by 2 points. 1 point because Mendoza was the better man, and 1 point because Lacy should have lost a point for tackling Mendoza.

    I think Lacy won an entertaining fight but it was not a wide win and could even have been close to a draw.

    I don't blame every guy that fights Lacy for putting in the performance of their lives because they know this is their chance to shine.

    I think the judges won. I guess they will be going on an all expenses vacation pretty soon?

    Oh come on Jet, don't you like watching guys get punched in the head too?

    To me the worst part about Lacey's performance was his lack of conditioning. He was dog tired from about the 5th round on. Ability or no ability there is no excuse for that when you are fighting for your life.

    It was very entertaining...the second round was great. But i knew if it went the distance, Lacy would be given the nod.

    I had Mendoza by a point in this slopfest.

    Lacy continues to show why he is all hype and that the money behind him is the only reason he isn't a 3 loss fighter by now.

    Figure of speech, thats all. Just a way to emphasize the poor performance to 2 so called fighters.
