    Tim Tomashek against Tommy Morrison - but in Tim's defense, he was plucked out of the audience at the last second when Morrison's original opponent bailed.

    Andrew Golota could always be mentioned in a context that is negative towards boxing; bad at boxing.

    And this edition of Golota is not very representative:

    I'm not saying that Andrew Golota has always performed poorly in a title fight. Against Byrd, he was robbed, but that is also bad for boxing.

    Tyson-Seldon would have been more competitive if Seldon had failed to show up. It was the saddest excuse for a prize fight that I have ever seen. Joe Hipp on the other hand, left nothing on the table against Seldon. I don't understand what northpaw was writing about.

    Ray Anderson ran like a thief against Bob Foster, but at least he was in the race for 15 rounds.
