LOOKS LIKE IT....  how do u go from fighting guys with records like that to a guy atop the div....  He deserved to get KO'd
Like your name... Jake was the man.. Best chin in boxing history. heres your first cool click welcome
It's called taking a step up, more fighters should try it.Quote:

and thanx for the sad click...  here's yours, chief
Green wasn't a HUGE step up, sure he had a few more fights under his belt but he wasn't exactly elite. Codrington just got fucked up ;D
I thought he had a fight scheduled? maybe I was wrong.
nuthin on boxrec yet
I didn't sadclick you...I had no reason to.Quote:

thnx for the cc providence.. I feel bad for Coddrington because he was a great prospect and was doing well, I think it was unfair for DiBella and Dash promotions to put him up against some one like Green with only 9 wins or whatever it was. They got cocky with him and were trying to push him and the chin checkers in to the spot light too quickly BAD PROMOTING !! Yeah green is not unstoppable but wayyyyy further along then coddrington was it is a shame.. That Coddrington got his heart ripped out and because of it probably doesnt even want to fight any more because expectations were so high for him..
Then I apologize and will make up for it tomorrow and will throw u another cc the next day... It happened right when u posted so I thought it was u... obviously it was somone in another post or so one who chose not to joust with me and cowardly sc me without a word. I am sorryQuote:

Thats why Im so irritated with Calzaghe... He'd take on a green right now cuz he's afraid of damaging his record... I like joe alot and he is a great fighter. the best in the smw. but he needs to grow a set and fight(Besides the 1 demensional Lacy, was a good win anyway. way outclassed him) a true power in the division and not a manfredo or a catch fight with the human stepping stone Johnson...Quote:

well i know his partner Curtis stevens has still been knocking people out consistently! so i hope his promoters dont make the same mistake they did with Jaidon
I had read that Jaidon had the flu that week and wasnt feeling 100% on fight night. He did not want to back out and he got caught early. Hopefully we will see him in a ring soon.
an auful lot of boxers get "the flu" prior to fights they get their @$$s handed to them don't ya think... Maybe there's a flu epidemic in the sport!!! ;D
;D It is an easy excuse to hold onto.Quote:

I don't feel bad for him. He talked alot of shit before the fight. He should of kept his mouth closed.Quote:

He deserved to get KO'd for talking smack about his friend, so his friend put him in his place. Green originally didn't want to take the fight because he knew he'd do that to him.Quote:

**Sorry - I deleted this post and started a new thread with it about baboons. It didn't really follow the Coddrington thing.**
