    Hmm, much nicer.

    Hopefully they won't start charging for looking at some of their content.

    I guess my only question is whether Detloff with continue to post a column, since he's become one of my favorite boxing writers.

    I just read Oscar's Blog. He is as Full of **** as an outhouse at Ozzfest in mid July. Challenge my ass. He did it because Manny Pac offered the biggest PPV $$$$ for the least amount of danger, being he weighed in at what, 135 last time out? I read Roaches as well. Calderon? Hmmmm. :good

    Yea the Calderon bit is interesting...

    At first, I thought putting this fight together would be impossible because Manny and Oscar were in different weight classes. Then I started thinking about it. After I trained Oscar, I realized he had trouble with smaller guys and southpaws. Oscar sparred with Ivan Calderon, the former 105-pound champion, when I trained him for the Floyd Mayweather Jr. fight because I wanted someone real quick. Calderon slapped Oscar around like it was unbelievable. I said between rounds one time, “Oscar, I want you to hit him one shot to show him who’s boss.” He couldn’t do it. I got mad at him. I told him the same thing another time; we used Calderon for a couple of days. I said, “Go ahead and hit that little mother.” Again, he couldn’t do it. Calderon was too quick and had a southpaw stance, like Manny does. That’s when I thought of Manny. I knew then it was a winnable fight.

    I quite enjoyed the Calzaghe V Jones post fight interviews, and the small interview with Kessler - I hadn't seen them yet.

    They also have some blogs from named guys as well... It's actually now turning into a report, and news source, rather just purely a list of Rankings. I'm not sure where that leaves the magazine though, because if they include too much on the site, people will stop purchasing the mag'.
