Don't Sleep On Tim Coleman

[BoxingGorilla]

I just want to endorse Tim Coleman since he is being overlooked in his fight against De La Rosa. I know Coleman to be a fine boxer who could very well win Friday's fight. I am surprised that I'm the only person to pick him in the prediction contest.

He may very well get knocked out, but I think he won't. I think he will outbox De la Rosa.

Coleman sparred with De La Hoya when Oscar was preparing to fight Forbes. I understand that "sparring" in not "fighting" but it counts for something.

He was off for some time with a broken hand and that does worry me since he is not a power puncher to begin with, yet I still feel good about picking him in this fight.

Well Silverback, DLR is a very good boxer himself.

I just haven't seen Coleman before not that I can remember at least....

Horseshoes and hand gernades...

Still, Coleman showed everyone that is worthy. He is still my favorite local boy and I expect to see him in the national spotlight again.

Coleman showed some nice in & out,quick but faded abit.The announcment and error by the Mc had to be a hard pill to swallow.Much learned here by both he and De la Rosa

Yeah. I think the MC was sure the three Maryland judges had given to the Marylander.

I thought Coleman handled it well. I know I was already celebrating when the annoucment was switched up.

The only thing running through my head was Mick just scored 7 points and I just scored a big fat zero.

Great effort by Coleman. Just fell a little short.

That was a nice little fight; a fight from the 1st to last bell

I actually thought Coleman won but must say I'm very happy for my Tx. boy to get the nod, though I'm Baltimore bred so I'll be cheering for Tim as I liked what I saw.

Too bad he doesn't have more power or that fight may have been over in the early rounds.
