    If thou talketh **** about thy opponent and then proceeds to get thy ass kicked on a consitent basis, then thou shall shut the **** up permanently.

    Looks good. ^


    And one for the fans; never disrespect a fighter unless he disrespects the sport.

    6. Thou shall make the agreed upon weight.

    (cough) Mayorga.

    Like that one. Very nice.

    Follow thine game plan (until it doesn't work, not just the first blow).
    Have a "plan B".
    Between rounds, listen to thine corner!
