    watched Green-Codrington - theres only 2 punches landed in it then a Brutal KO so it dosent get a rating but tha kO is a 10

    Benn Logan is a 7 theres too much holding in it though

    Morales Barrera 1

    i had it 114-113

    Barrera got the 1,2,7,8,9,12
    Morales got the 3,4,5,6,10,11

    cracking fight i have it a 10

    the KD in the last round wasnt a KD so it really should be a draw IMO

    Barrera-Morales III

    9/10

    A lot of people said Barrera was the clear winner, personally I thought the first fight was easier to score than the 3rd. Although, I had Barrera winning them both anyway.

    It was a great fight but Corrales should have been disqualified for constantly spitting out his gum shield, that referee was a disgrace. It was blatant what Corrales was doing but he still had to finish Castillo which he did brilliantly so fair doos ..
    Ive been watching plenty of great fights today,

    Holyfield v Bowe 1,2
    Holyfield v Dokes .. (forgot how brilliant that fight is)
    Wilfredo Gomez v Lupe Pintor .. (one of the best fights ever)
    Pryor v Arguello
    Pintor v Zarate .. (biggest robbery ive ever seen, Pintor gets a split decision over 15 rounds but one judge has Zarate winning by 12 points, the scores were 143 - 142 Pintor, 143 - 142 Pintor and 133 - 145 Zarate. The third judge was spot on, the other 2 were clearly bought off)
    Moorer v Cooper .. Cracking slugfest

    well it was up close toe to toe war in the first 5 but it lacked drama and huge power like great fights. dont get me wrong the first 5 were great rounds and if a fight just had them 5 rounds it wouls till be a great fight but the 6-10 were truly phenomanal rounds

    AXL nose

    Corrales got a point deducted the second time he did it. the first time it xcme out as he got hit so it wasnt his fault. 2nd time he said he tried to catch it.

    AXl nose you been watching some great fights

    what was your score in the first 1 btw

    i have only saw the 1st one might watch the rest this week to get ready for khan barrera but i cant imagine any fight living up to the first one. That ferocity and passion but with brillaint technique throughout and so evenly matched fighters
