Three cards on tonight. FNF, Showbox and Fox Sports 1. To start on FNF its everybody's favorite Subway sandwich poster boy Lt. Heavyweight Mike Lee fighting Gonsalves in a 6'er and eating some punches. Bloody nose in the 3rd
Caleb Truax 23-1-2 (14) fights Derek Ennis 24-4-1 (13) in a co main and Roberto Garcia 35-3 (23) meets old trusty Breidis Prescott 27-5 (20) in main event.
I think Chris Byrd could be a very wise mind in the corner of a young fighter. Be interesting to see in the future.
Spicoli you are the man, thanks for the extra work. I hate it when three different cards happen on the same night.
Which card looks the most promising to you?
Truax has taken over this fight, if I was at this fight Ennis' father would be driving me nuts with his constant screaming. Ennis does well in spots but is dropping farther and farther behind.
Caleb Truax and Derek Ennis are putting on a spirited fight here. Far from top flight but meat & potato fights are what keep the sport going. Thought Traux had him going out in 4th but Ennis still hanging, and giving trainer a coronary by not letting hands go more ;D
bennKOed, probably going with this one and FFS card with Frankie Gomez 17-0 (13) vs Vernon Paris 28-1 (16). The Showbox card started 10 minutes ago but the overlap cards make a guy schizophrenic. They'll replay it Sunday. Garcia and Prescott should be worth a watch after this one. Prescott has had the longest 15 minutes for a guy and Garcia at 147 prob way too strong and wears him out to body.
Good 1st for Prescott, moving well but starting to get trapped a bit in corners
Garcia better get to work...he's making Prescott look like the next coming of Chris Algieri here. Prescott getting a bit mentally bothered, legs look wet, but Garcia only throwing one & done. Nice pressure end of 5th...DO MORE!
I think Teddy is all off on that score. Its not pretty but no way is Garcia pitching a near shut out :cwm13: Prescott came in with a plan and being allowed to get off, leaves Garcia in these ugly lurches and wide misses. Just about dead even here
Garcia won 1st half of 8th...and then Prescott damn near clinic last half stopping Garcia in his tracks with one-twos and having him "look" out of attempts. Damn man. This is very interesting ebb and flow, Ohhhhhhhh down, Prescott drops him with straight right down the middle!!!! Huge tide change
Garcia is busted up, that was a beautiful shot!!! Damn near put his jaw into the back of his neck
Garcia needs a KO in 10th..really surprised at Prescott focus and stamina
Teddy is a funny guy, he knows boxing, but I think he would be a terrible judge.
Garcia vs Prescott is turning into an ugly, draining fight.
Garcia down from straight right in 9th!
Garcia is a bitch. He'll be destroyed against real competition.
I like Teddy, but this one in particular has to be one of the most biased fights I've heard him on??? I got Prescott winning, he was doing physical and mental damage to a fatigued and disinterested Garcia late. I was way off!!
Going to be interesting decision!
I honestly think that call was shit..and I love me some pressure fighters, but that was shit. Maybe its this Light beer I'm drinking :p
GBP on Fox...Terrell Gausha 10-0 (5) vs Ronnie Warrior jr. 15-8-1 (5). For 10 starts Gausha got some valued experience with Whitaker and came back from being rocked, but should steamroll Warrior if his head is in it
Like I said, Teddy would be a terrible judge, in my opinion.Quote:

Frankie Gomez 17-0 (13) vs Vernon Paris 28-1 (16)....Paris has been through the grinder, Shot 4 times, stabbed multiple times and escaped the coffin years ago. Also got 2 wins overturned because he smoked a joint(s) :p
Could be a decent dust up here
Cannot say again what a nice change of pace it is to have Paulie on the mic!!
Paris looking unstable , Gomez very solid foundation and moves him every time. Wicked hooks to body
Turning into a shoot out. Paris is just out gunned here, dropped hard in 4th but up and sponging serious hurt!! In another life Paris is top skill but its all he can do to keep Gomez off of him here. Hard stuff
Gomez is eating Paris alive, Paris down in the 4th.
If Gomez can keep up the pace he will win, good fight.
Golden Boy is putting some great fights together, that's a good thing.
Someone said they're glad to see Paulie calling more fights, me too.
It Spicoli, of course!
Tough tough round for both, this is lasting kind of damage Paris is taking here. Its literally written on him. Back, neck, face all bruised and red. Deep damage. Think if Gomez pours it on Ref or corner could help him out
rear area of Paris right ear looking all Rahman-ish. I can't get passed a guy with a bullet lodged in his head taking all these punches
Paris on raw instinct and heart, wouldn't have mind them stopping this in 9th or 10th. He just looked all wrong last couple rounds. Gomez has tremendous pressure and body work
Scores 100-89...all three cards
On a side note I wanna be on the Corona girl talent search team ;D Wow
Paris is taking a beating now, Gomez sent him backing away with two stiff jabs. Great performance by Gomez and Paris is tough as nails.
My recording Prescott v Garcia stopped after the knock down! :mad: Hate it when that happens. Prescott was getting bullied around.
