He's much better then Bernardo in the studio, I saw him calling fights for top rank last Saturday. He used to give Floyd a lot of shit, which I really enjoyed. ;)

Noe will get the upset.

Jeff Lacy Alright its fight time!

Do you know how many children you could make happy by melting all those worthless trinkets down into Chucky cheese tokens :mad:

round 1 Stevenson. Gonzalez didn't throw any punches that round.

what the fuck?

You stopped it. Really!

huh, well...............that was pretty pathetic of a stoppage.

Well hell, now we've got 45 minutes to go before Lara vs. Hearns starts on Showtime.

Ohh my. Good punches but that ref just froze and second guessed himself big time...bad stoppage. Rule him down along ropes if anything ???

Rubbish stoppage. Bullshit decision.

Boxing meanders along like a limping dog that knows death is impending.

didn't ropes hold Gonzalez up there? Should have been a count.

Shitty ref.

If I didn't know that this fight was in Canada, I might have thought this fight was in Texas. :p

Bad stoppage.

I absolutely HATE it when a ref looks so unsure of himself. Geez... get some experienced refs in there, for crying out loud.

Yes, he should have said ropes held him up and ruled a knockdown. Or if he thought ropes didn't hold him up, it should have gone for another few seconds.

Ref and judges. None of them are worth a damn anymore.
