    No doubt about it. While there was a pile of manure on HBO tonight,
    there was a tasty treat on showtime in the rios/antillon mexican
    phone booth war. That was a good a 3 rounds as the classic between
    hitman and marvelous. Not as high profile but every bit as good. rios
    stood in front of urbano and backed all his talk. Great action tonight.

    Sorry, HBO. you got beat again by showtime.

    HBO has a real knack of putting on some incredibly boring matches.

    Rios seems the type who be fighting even on the street if he wasn't in the ring.He is a serious badass

    Knew the fight would be a war and my only disappointment is that I didn't place a big unders bet like I wanted to

    Started at the same time as Williams fight and it was a no-brainer for me. Didn't even flick between rounds or anything

    lost too much last week on haye and am a bit gunshy at the moment

    10 threads on Williams.
    No threads on the great fight between Rios/Antillon.

    Sure is non boxing fans in here and pro HBO fans.

    I didnt bet today either. Copa America has depleted my bodog account.

    This weekend would have been a good one with all the big fights and games. However when you lose all your bets for a week straight you do become gunshy.
