    I thought it was more of a cartwheel...Actually, I think from now on we should call this the Puerto Rican cartwheel.

    It killed me that I had to miss the action tonight... but apparently from what I'm reading, I didn't miss anything, aside from a few laughs.

    Alright.. I watched this **** like 20 times.. yes he was falling off balance.. yes he had momentum.. but that nicca still jumped out the ****ing ring. He could of just ****ing fell. but he took that extra hop through the ropes like WWE. It was not like he just fell out. Why this awkard mother****er jumped out is beyond me. I would of just fell down in that situation or got an arm around the ropes. There was no reason for this nut to go head first out like that. I dont need a scientific explanation for some simple **** like that.

    I know. So many conspiracies for people on both sides, or neither side. The material here is endless! Cintron threw it! Williams threw it! It was a mutually agreed fix! the promoter threw it! The commission threw it so they could give it to Williams! Everybody who hates either of these two fighters will have tons of great material to keep them going on this board for months to come.

    Admittedly, I thought Cintron won round 2 and was doing well in the fourth prior to the controversy, but the only reason that fight didn't continue was because Cintron was trying to manipulate the rules or what he thought were the rules. There's no doubt in my mind that Cintron could have continued. If you watch the footage once more, even twice, you can clearly see that he got a relatively soft and comfortable landing. Had Williams fell out of the ring and endured the same landing, he'd have jumped back up, brushed himself off, and resumed combat. So would 99% of other elite fighters.

    Congratulations Williams, I know when I pay to watch you fight that I'm going to see you give it your all, and go out on your shield if need be.

    I think people give the thought speed of boxers WAY too much credit. In the middle of a fight, you think one boxer is going to see another start to go down, and in the time it takes for him to hit the ground, with zero lag, calculates that he might be ahead on the cards, that the one solid punch he was hit with probably means he's going to lose the fight, and that he's in California and therefore fights are scored after three rounds with the forth being scored even if it's not complete, and all he has to do is trip over his opponent's legs at just the right place just as he hits the ground, then fly through the ropes, and aim for a table to make sure he can land in a way that slams his head against that table (to make things look good)? Really? All of that in the space of .5 seconds it takes for Williams to fall down? You think Cintron is that quick-thinking? You think ANYBODY is that quick-thinking?

    I wish the fight was called a technical draw or no contest, but if Cintron was OK like claimed, why did he lay still like that face down? I'm open to suggestions as to why, because I can't figure it out...

    who knows. Dr. probably told him not to move while he checked him out... Could have just been a precaution once the Doctor ordered for the stretcher.

    The doctor said "Your back is broken, son." and Kermit said "What part?" and the doctor said "spinal". It was all scripted by Mike Tyson.

    I'd like to think these first two aren't correct...but that's the most logical I have heard so far...damn.
