    Finally got round to watching Simpson-Truscott II.....what a fantastic battle and full respects to both fighters......Simpson is ready for a Euro shot or Lindsay....whatever comes first....and Truscott can look towards a bright future domestically, he would have learned a helluva lot from these two fights against Simpson. Hes still a young lad.

    My interest in boxing might have been rejuvinated from this scrap.....first bit of boxing I've really watched since Witter-Alexander

    pea vs mcgirt 1

    buddy was/is an underated technician, they guy made sweet pea fight his fight and made him lead, very good fight and competitive although pea dominated the second, i think buddy gave a very good account of himself in this fight, its a shame he was hampered with a cronic shoulder problem thus not being able to throw his best punch the left hook particularly in this fight.

    i think the 2nd fight is really average.

    and mccallum was well robbed in that one.

    terrible scorecards. :patsch

    yeah it was closer than that.

    nunn was ahead though no doubt.

    it was in nunn's hometown of davenport, iowa, so the margins don't surprise me. :yep

    I just watched Sugar Ray Leonard - Floyd Mayweather Sr. Floyd had some guts, but I was surprised to learn how low his KO ratio was and how he couldn't really punch.
    Excellent jab though. This was Ray's first real pro fight.

    I been catching up on some the boxing Ive missed recently.

    Malinaggi-Diaz...I felt so sorry for Paulie, he boxed beautifully at times and clearly won the fight...It would have been such a fantastic result for him aswell. I hear HBO is on board for the rematch so lets just hope its well away from Texas

    Sonsona-Lopez...WOW, tremendous fight and great performance from the kid considering he hadnt been past 5 rounds before...Bright bright future for Sonsona, just hope 'The New Pacquaio' thing doesnt stick...unfair pressure for him to carry especially in the phillipines....Hes his own fighter with his own future to make.

    RJJ-Lacy....I know it was mostly due to the opponent but it was great to see Roy look so good again and having fun....Danny Green will be a different kettle of fish but I think Roy will win

    Hasegawa-Malinga. God knows where Hasegawa has got this power from recently. Hopefully he'll get the big fights he deserves at Bantam soon.
    Cotto-Margarito. I'd love to believe this was a genuine fight as it was an epic- we'll just never know:conf. Cotto looked so sharp up until the 7th.

    Is this worth a watch? I've got it downloaded but I've got such a back log at the moment I'm picking a choosing what to watch first.
