    I've just watched Casamayor vs Katsidis. A fairly entertaining fight. Ultimately Katsidis decided to come out way too aggressively for the 10th round and paid the price. 84-83.

    I want to watch Casamayor vs Santa Cruz, because that was apparently the worst robbery ever, but it's not on YouTube or WBVA.

    And by the way, Casamayor's Cuban dialect is ridiculous, I could barely understand anything!
     
  2. Casamayor vs Marquez is a fun fight IMO, though I'm not sure anyone agrees with that.

    I watched 3 rounds of Bernard Hopkins vs Jean Pascal II and feel asleep on my bed. I had been the gym early in the morning, and was abit tired anyway. I only watched it because i have been in heavy debate in the general forum..? and i just wanted to see how **** Hopkins is, these days.

    But boy..? Hopkins makes for boring fights.

    I watched Hagler vs Hearns Round 1...

    "And i was pissed off by the youtube comments"

    The fight is abit overrated..? It was pretty much over after the first round. Some ****witts where saying it was the greatest fight of all time..? One of the greatest rounds of all-time..? for fight..? Hearns was done after one round.

    Fatigued, and fought by Hagler, and injured.....

    I also watched Holyfield vs Bowe I round 10...

    I watched this after Hagler vs Hearns to compare the brutal nature of the two rounds.

    "I watch some random blacked dude..? Adonis something..? A middleweight..? watched him knock some guy out, and go mental"

    I watched this violent knockout, about 4 times.

    "I also watched Julian Jackson vs Herol "Bomber" Graham......i watched Julian Jackson knocking Graham out afew times over"...

    Marquez vs Vasquez 1. Great fight. Thought Marquez won nearly every rd. Even when he got knocked down it was a tight rd.

    Gona watch the other two this week when I get time.:bbbn

    Kalambay-McCallum 1, gonna crack on with 2 later methinks
     

  13. He went mad not because he had scored a knockdown but because in the build up the opponent had suggested that he was a gay prostitute (or something to that effect)

    RCR's interesting fact of the day :good
     
  14. After the Bruno/Haye debate earlier I watched the Bruno vs McCall fight.

    I scored it to Frank 117-111 (**** knows what fight the judge who had him win by just 2 was watching)

    Oliver McCall, as hindsight tells us, had mental isues and I think it is safe to say that he was suffering from them in this fight. He gave away the first 3 rounds as Bruno dominated behind his very under-rated jab and even when he, McCall, was more active it seemed a bit half-hearted and without any conviction. Only in the last 3 rounds did McCall grasp the serious situation he found himself in and went about to change that and if it had been a 15 round fight would, in my opinion, have won by KO as Frank was ****ed.

    First time I've watched the fight since the actual night and I was shocked at how poor it was. Still great seeing Nigel Benn supporting Bruno and **** being the person who was sat behind him :lol:

    Watched Bruno vs Tyson II afterwards and haven't got much to say about it apart from even if you didn't know either man ythat you could have easliy guessed that Bruno didn't fancy it from the walk-in. Glad he got a great payday and walked away afterwards though.
