    Ya, I know it's just the graphics guy who screwed up, but don't they check these things! Not only did they get the wrong Klitschko listed, they can't even spell his name correctly!

    Ortiz showed some real heart that night! It's shameful how he got jobbed with that early stoppage, though. The talks with Minto's camp look good as an undercard for Malignaggi v. Diaz III, held in Germany for neutral ground.

    ESPN's stock photo of Andre Dirrell for YEARS has been a picture of Anthony Dirrell. I swear they've used it about 20 times now.

    HBO's boxing page is always rife with typos.

    The possibility that it was some dumbass kid being paid peanuts is just as feasible.
