    The hat brought in an aspect that only a true ******* could pull off. I thought it was brilliant.

    SRL ducked Pryor about the same way Wlad ducked Haye. In other words, he didn't. Pryor did zilch at welterweight and wanted a big fight with SRL and he priced himself out of it (this is coming from a Pryor fan). He rejected SRL's offer and he never earned a shot at him to begin with, then he complained about it as though SRL were pissing himself scared. The super star chose not to bend over and take it in the ass to make an unnecessary fight happen with a champ from a lower weight class who didn't bring half the celebrity.

    Froch winning 120-108 off AA is not surprising.

    I haaaate Leonard,and have mucho respect for Manny,but Leonard is the best welter I've seen in my lifetime and one of the greatest fighters I've ever seen.In fact,Leonard's only loss at 147 was against Duran.Leonard by late tko.

    IMO, Pacquiao's optimum fighting weight was 135-140lbs.

    IMO, Leonard's optimum fighting weight was 147-154lbs.

    A great bigger man beats up a great smaller man. Leonard by late stoppage in this one.

    Agree to disagree here.

    Not that I think AA has p4p boxing ability, but Froch's boxing talent alone is C-, maybe C at BEST, for a world class fighter.

    I don't think I saw anyone who said beforehand that they expected Froch to outclass AA with boxing ability and score a shutout decision. If you did Philla, props.
