    I've been hard on him, but I have to give credit where credit is due. After shamelessly ducking Zab years ago, Shane is finally stepping up to the plate to face Super Judah. Good luck to both men on May 31st. Hopefully Shane doesn't lose too many brain cells from the beating.:thumbsup

    I hope you plan on giving Shane & B-Hop the same kind of props after they wins their fights.

    Please, Joe was content to defend his crap belt in the U.K. Joe is lucky that Nard is nice enough to share a ring with him. Joe is getting his biggest payday because of the Living Legend. So he and his fans need to show some respect. How many U.K fighters need to benefit off the generosity of their superior American counterparts before they show a little grattitude?

    If Shane wins, I'll give him all the props in the world. Hell, I give him props for putting up such a spirited effort against Cotto.

    Cunningham will ***** slap Haye. You know what, I don't even want to put Haye down. He's a good young fighter who will inject some excitement in the HW division, before getting violently knocked out.

    How did he SHAMELESSLY duck Zab? Let me guess...Zab called him out, and Shane never fought him? :huh

    Either way, good fight.

    He claims that he skipped over the 140 lb. division to fight Oscar. We all know the real reason. He wanted no parts of Zab. Shane doesn't like to fight lefties and he doesn't like to fight guys with superior handspeed. That's all in the past though. He's fighting Zab and I give him a lot of repect for that. Not many old men would want to fight a guy like Zab.

    I think the steroids have alot to due with his "warrior' mentality. Roid rage will do alot for a man's courage.

    I see. So the REAL reason is just one you think is true. Thanks for clarifying that. :roll:

    Zab wasn't that big of a deal when Mosley skipped 140 to go to welterweight. Talented, undefeated fighter, but he wasn't even a title holder then.

    And neither was Tszyu for that matter. Tszyu won the vacant WBC belt about a month before Mosley fought Rivera (obviously Mosley had already signed for the HBO date with Rivera by then).

    I'm joking about him ducking Zab. Zab once said that he skipped over 140 because he wanted no parts of Zab. I thought it was funny. I have nothing but respect for Mosley. The man is extremely brave. In this case, his bravery is going to cost him his health.
