What agitates me the most about that is the way Dibella makes it all come off. Saying "NO!" to a hometown decision doesn't mean that Taylor's being dodged like a bullet.

Yeah very true.

Mora did the smart thing by turning that fight down. He is actually doing what other prospects aren't and taking his time with his career.

I disagree entirely, every real boxers dream is to be world champion, and when your Sergio Mora, a man who has faught no one of any real class, and your offered the chance to fight the undisputed world champion, you take it by the horns and fight like a man, who cares who's yard your in, you fight with all your might and you can win. It's not like a better chance will ever come around. He's a pussy.

He may very well be a pussy...but after seeing Hopkins Taylor I, Taylor Wright, & now Taylor Spinks...one can easily deduce that you gotta knock Taylor's a** out to get a win over Jermain "Honey Pot" Taylor.

If your'e undefeated & you have those odds stacked against you...I don't blame ya for being a pussy.

That's a pretty good point, huh? You pretty much do gotta knock that guy out or beat the everloving shit out of him to beat him...

yeah he wants to be world champion so he's gonna walk int othe jermain taylor fight unprepared and in Taylor's backyard.

So you're saying that a fighter's dream to be world champion so they'll take the best chance they have at losing right?

You beat me to it...not in so many words...but pretty much the same thoughts.

I guess there's a good example of this, with Junior Witter fighting Zab Judah about 6 years ago, and going into obscurity, but at the same time, if someone offers you the chance to fight the top dog out of nowhere, without even earning it, and you say no, it says a lot about this guys self belief. If it was me, I wouldn't be able to look at myself in the mirror and say I'm the best, I'll be the best middleweight that lived.

Mora aint gonna do shat but talk rubbish like he's the best and he wants to fight the best, The guy at best is a chump. He is very overrated and I would like to see Miranda fight him for a comeback where Miranda can snap his next with a hard punch to that big ass nose.

Yeah and it took Witter near 7 years to get another shot. You think Mora's got that kind of time if he loses?

Hold up, Witter never got his shot for 6 years later because his fights were fucking boring, he has 0 fan base, he cannot sell tickets, he's arrogant, cocky, an just a complete tit. Mora will get his shot if he beats either A) Top ranked contenders or B) Decent fighters, and is exciting when he does it. Thats the basic formula for being a top guy in a division, the other way is to be in exciting fights, and sell tickets.

Even if he went out against Taylor and lost, if he let it all hang out like Ouma did, he's still be much better off. if he went out and got destroyed like Manfredo, he'd STILL probably be better off. Right now he's further off the radar than The Titanic.

couldnt of said it better myself...
This whole "he's smart for not fighting taylor" is utter bullshit, give me a break. He's a joke, period. He had a shot at the world title... anyone would take it. anyone.

Don't people say that about Mora too?

First of all, I don't see how any fighter can be called a "pussy." It take balls, huge balls, to climb into a ring in the first place, and put your health on the line just to try and entertain a bunch of people who might just end up calling you names because you don't do what they want you to do... sorry, but it bothers me when fighters all called pussies, though I have been guilty of it myself in moments of anger and frustration (see my recent posts on JT), but it is simply not true, and I recind my previous comments to that point. All fighters have tremendous courage and guts... even JT and Mora.
Secondly, there is no way Mora was going to KO Taylor, and thus no way he was going to win. B-Hop, Winky, and maybe even Spinks all beat him and still got the shaft. Why throw away all you've earned and accumulated just to lose?. If you look good against him and still lose, you'll probably get ducked, and if you get KO'd in the 1st round, then you were overrated garbage anyways, so how can the guy win?
I don't blame Mora for a second for turning the fight down. Spinks is already established as a top-level fighter, as is Ouma, so they really had nothing to lose. Mora in my opinion had plenty to lose and very little to gain, as he was not going to get the decision in JT's backyard, performing for his pimps at HBO, no matter what he did in the ring.

Cheers man for putting my feet back on the ground there, I don't know how many times I've made posts like your one there myself, anyone who steps in the ring gets my full respect for that, they really are brave men. When I say "He's a pussy," it's always within the context of the sport. My bad.

How about when mora got the nodd for the second manfredo fight? When a fighter is fighting at home and the fight is close the home town guy ALWAYS gets the benefit of the doubt. So here's an idea. Win the fight in impressive fashion so its obvious how it has to be scored.

Peter lost. Get over it.
I can't believe you Manfredo fans are still bitter about Sergio beating Peter 3 times.

You guys sure do know how to hang on to a grudge. To bad there is nothing else you guys can do but run your yuk mouths.

First of all, peter did win that fight. Secondly i no longer support him after his debacle against calzaghe as i have stated previously. And thirdly if manferedo can't make it on a world stage what makes you think mora can?

Since when did you become a judge?

You had your fan nut hugging glasses on that night of the fight.
You wish Peter had won but the judges saw it and called it right.
When Mora started with the flurries, Peter turned into a little ball just like he did against Calzlappy.

Ok I am glad you are no longer supporting Peter but you still sound sore about Sergio beating your ex 3 times.

Get over it completely. You can do it. You know Peter can not hang with any one who can flurry.
Just because Peter looked better in that second fight does not warrant a win.

I give Peter the most improved award.
First fight he got an F and Sergio got a A
Second fight Peter got a D and Sergio got an C.

Sergio was sick and cut bad from a head butt and Peter could not do anything with that.
That is sad.
I knew he was going to fold under Calzlappy. I thought you knew!

I was blinded by the contenders first season. I will never again take anything on that show seriously

Rewatch the whole first season, they make manfredo look like F****** godzilla.

lol if they do that slow motion bs in season three, i for one will not be watching it looks so cheezy now in retrospect.
