    Haven't seen all of it but looks decent, they actually show all the fights but we have comments from journos, promoters and the fighters between rounds.

    James McGirt Sr. vs. Simon Brown.

    I urge anyone who doesn't rate Buddy McGirt to watch this fight. Simon Brown was a top 10 pound for pounder at that time and McGirt put on a clinic, it was a boxing lesson and nobody talks about it. Buddy was in the zone and in probabily the very few times his shoulder didn't give way and hamper his performance. Vintage display.

    Some Michael Moore footage at light heavy.

    I think Moorer was a beast at light heavweight and he is underrated there because the division was bland when he was there. I think he could certainly beat some of the top 10 light heavyweights ever on a given day. It's hard to believe but Moorer gained almost 40lbs from his last light heavyweight fight and his first heavyweight fight, that's crazy! There was no need to move up so soon IMO because in hindsight the guy left his legacy on the table because he was just was so much better at 175lbs.

    I suppose it's always the big dilemma for dominent light heavyweights as we saw with Roy Jones, Bob Foster, Mike Spinks etc. They've got to chase that heavyweight money. But at least all those other guys established their greatness and left no doubt.

    Watched Cunningham - Wlodarckyzk or whatever his name is. The second fight. I had it a lot wider than the judge scorecards. Although the Pole came on in the late rounds, Cunnigham nicked the majority of the early rounds and won the last 2 for me, which was enough to give him a more than comfortable win IMO. Cunnigham 116-111 The Pole.

    And does anyone know where I can watch Cunningham - Adamek? I'd like to re-score that fight but I can't find it on Youtube.
