Oh great, women's softball looks like it will be on another 30 minutes.
Softball huh :-X
David Telesco still around eh. Wow. Should be a fun card.
I don't know if it's true or not but i've always heard that women's softball is nothing but a bunch of lesbos/dikes and ugly ones at that.Quote:

Sexual preferences aside, I just have no interest in women's softball or women's basketball or women's golf. et al.Quote:

Alright, here we go, Teddy and Joe calling the action, Rooney vs Jones a 4 round opener.
Kid Rooney looks like he's wearing roller skates and lost...Jones is very upset minded.

cheers
Unless Jones get's KO'd in the last round, he has this one in the bag because of the 2 KD's.
Good for Jones. Rooney seems a nice enough kid but he may want to look at boxing like an experiment rather than career.
Up next Nick Brinson vs. Jason Escalera.
Both Brinson and Escalera look to be in good shape, nice scrap.
go to the body
1 or 2 good body shots would have done him in there.
I've got Escalera ahead by a couple points.
neither of these guys is going anywhere long term. How about a draw and a FNF rematch some time.
A draw, all things considered, that sounds about right.
no problem with that. wasn't scoring it. But i feel like brimson did well in first half of the fight Escalera came on strong late with the caveman pressure.
Okie, the main up next = Karim Mayfield vs. Raymond Serrano, Mayfield is an undefeated up and comer, who uses the same trainer as Andre Ward.
Serrano looking good in the first round, both guys throwing heavy leather, hard to see this one going the distance.
Serrano knocked down and hurt in the 3rd round, but survives the round, good fight.
wow what the hell was that corner doing?????
lol........
not a bad night for friday night fights.
serrano's corner= EPIC FAILURE
There was one smart guy in that corner and he was the one calling to stop it...way to brave for his welfare!
Corner was ridicileous...thought mayfield would be the one to get caught watchin the first round but he made adjustments
fathers training sons, doesn't seem to go well.Quote:

I thought the ref should have stopped the fight after the KD in the 4th round, Serrano was out of it. Anyway that was fun fight to watch.
Exciting fights.
I thought Escalara came on very strong and should have won the fight. The 7th was nearly a 10-8 round.
A draw wasn't terrible tho.
Great KO by the San Francisco kid. Those Doctors sure messed things up in the corner afterwards along with in fighting from the corner, but as others have said probably didn't matter much in the long run.
Tremendous heart from Serrano to get up from that shot in the 4th.
Also Kevin's Rooney kid fought bravely, but was far too conservative with his punches.
This is on tonight over here, so must be a repeat thanks for the result and commentary.
