Salido V Cruz now. My prediction.....Orlando will win

[ToraToraTora]

Pah, one way traffic. Salido by a country mile. Cruz was very disappointing. Nice uppercut to finish it.

Mehhhh Bradley got on the bike and won at least 10 rounds pretty easily. Marquez didn't get near him except maybe the last 2 rounds. Disappointed. Unbeaten record stays intact and you can't say he didn't deserve it.

I had it 7 rounds to 5 for Bradley. Dull fight.

Bradley did what he had to do to win, and he fought smart. JMM is beginning to look old.

Hey do any of you guys and girls care about mundine v sugar shane here next Wednesday?

I hope mouthy mundine gets knocked into next week. Never has an Aussie sportsman been so hated.
He could have been the most awesome indigenous ambassador in history; but chose instead to be an arrogant humorless big mouthed wanker.

Anybody catch that ESPN E60 bit about Leonard/Duran II?

It was pretty cool, but unfortunately Hands of Stone still says that the reason he quit was because he was gassed from making weight.

Sugar still looks like a bitch though... I just need to know why??? Shut the fuck up, Ray.

I couldn't watch it. I was 12 or 13 at the time the fight took place and i remember listening to AM radio trying to catch news of the fight results. I was heartbroken to hear the outcome. I was the biggest Duran fan at the time and i can't bear to relive it.

I guess if that fight took place today Duran could have just ignored the weight and paid the fine. Then if Leonard still wanted to fight so be it and if not...oh well.

I thought it was really good. Leonard was always my favorite boxer growing up.

The 1st fight was a fucking wrestling match... Leonard made a huge mistake trying to go toe-to-toe with Duran...

But he smartened up for the rematch and kept his stick-and-move going, frustrating the fuck out of Duran.

I don't believe that weight bullshit one bit...

Duran was just pissed that Leonard wouldn't stand still, much like the Leonard/Hagler fight....

My father met Duran in PA about 15/20 years ago...

Sugar Ray needed his ego rubbed a bit there..I mean did he really think Duran would say he quit?? ..Im glad Duran didnt back down for Leonard on that piece..

The guys in Duran's hometown in Panama said it themselves, one day it was one excuse, then next day a new one....

It was obvious that Leonard had Duran so flustered he quit...period..goes without saying and Leonard trying to coax that out of Duran just sickened me..no need to rub his nose in it..

[DlocRoth]

The clips and interviews were great.

The whole two old dudes toe to toe in the ring at the end was lame.

[Fairwrning]

Does Ray still think he beat Hagler?

[Von Halen]

Does Ray still think he beat Hagler?

Of course he does. What a fucking joke that was. I'm all for strategic fighting, but he ran that whole fight, like a pussy.
