I was happy when Valuev lost because he realy didnt deserve to better Rockys record with his standard of opponents.
Too many sad ones to list as there have been plenty.
You know what?Quote:

Yeah the fight was a surprise. I didn't know much about Hopkins at the time except he was always talking about how good he was and he seemed like a bit of a dick. Tito was better known to me and I thought he was going to hand him his ass on a plate. After the fight B-Hop apologized as you said. It took me a while to figure him out but have plenty of respect for him now and don't buy the bad guy talk. At least that silly S&M mask is gone now. Isn't it? Please let it be gone.Quote:

Very Angry: Lewis-Holyfield I Holyfield totally outboxed but gifted with the draw.
I always saw him as very beatable with a guy who could move and counter properly. I always wanted him to fight Wlad and I still hope he will as I think his size would be much less a factor and his skill level would be exposed.Quote:

Still, Lacy will get back and hopefully make some more memories like Tito did to erase one VERY bad one. Bad memory in the context of boxing anyways.
Happiest moment is a lot of them. Peter - Toney II I was very happy about, and I showed it afterwards :D When Winky Wright dominated Tito, that was awesome.
Mayweather beating Oscar was AWESOME. But it left me with kind of a "what now?" effect in the days afterwards. Kind of like when the Super Bowl is played and the Pro Bowl is next. It's football, but you don't care quite as much. Luckily Pavlik and Miranda picked up the slack and filled the void from May 5 to June 9. Also, the Margarito - Williams build up is getting good.
Corrales KO'ing Castillo was the most pulse pounding, extreme adrenilane rush.
But probably Winky - Tito for me.
I can't really say I remember my happiest but I sure as hell was happy when b hop put a clinic on tarver, I thought that would shut his ass up but no I was wrong it didn't shut anything up, it just made him delusional in more ways than one.
Happy KT v Zab
Saddest Holmes V Ali
HAPPIEST: Holmes destroying Cooney
Corrales KO's Castillo
Terry Norris whoopin Leonard
SADDEST: Douglas KO's Tyson
Byrd and Williamson( i was ashamed to love boxing after that fight)
I was pretty sad when Danny Green was dq'd against Beyer. He would have won - he was killing him. I still reckon if Johhny Lewis was in his corner he would have won. I think there was too much aggression from fenech.
HAPPIEST:
KOSTYA TSZYU defeated SHARMBA MITCHELL (2nd Fight)
SADDEST:
LENNOX LEWIS defeated MIKE TYSON.
saddest was when Byrd got beat around the ring by Wlad in the rematch.
i'm not sure what my happiest is.
Saddest was when Hopkins beat Trinidad... I could not believe the ease off it all.
Happiest when Corrales got up twice to KO Castillo. Truly amazing.
