    Robbery was an exageration, I don't know if you've picked up on it but I do like to do that.

    I prefered what Godoy was doing with his defensive crouch while coming over with hooks and working Joe over on the inside :bbb

    That's fair too, but you know that what a fight looks like and how it actually scores are two very different things. All Louis has to do is shade more rounds. On my card, he did that.


    Another good example is Eubank-Watson one. Watching that and forming an "impression" just doesn't work, you have to score it, and you have to pay attention. You had that one to Eubank I believe. That's an important fight for me, and I scored it three times, W, D, L for Watson, can't get anywhere.

    I've scored Godoy-Louis I twice and gave it to Louis twice.

    Tyson by early KO. I just can't envision Louis opening up early enough to discourage Tyson from going at him.

    Joe said on plenty of occasions he hated to be pressured. Tyson is a pressuring fighter, and I don't think Louis could take too many of Tyson's punches before he dropped.

    Typical itrymariti :yep
    Jenna Jameson , Holyfield=Louis , Godoy=Tyson. Actually I sense signs of deterioration.
