Those darn excuses!!!!!!

He did look somewhat flat, but thats really irrelevent. He could have been in perfect condition and still would have eaten punches all night. I've seen heavy bags that avoided more 1,2's than that guy. If he kept his hands up in the first part of the fight, I might believe that it was fatigue and malnutrition that dropped his arms later.

He swings wide and and doesnt defend. He'll be the new mayorga .

First off CC, haven't seen you around in a long while.

And yeah, Pavlik just had the right style to beat him. It's wierd, he usually does have his hands up and his defense is usually tight from the outside, especially in the early rounds. Wasn't the case here but either way, I think Pavlik beats him 10 times out of 10, he just has the right style and he isn't scared.

Thanks CC back atcha. Yeah, I havent been around that much. Probably has to do with the excitement level of some of the fights being made now. Hard to get intrigued and break down a fight like i used to...or pick apart fighters like i used to. So many fights are to easy to call right off and and the action isnt even worth it. Also too many fights on PPV, so unless i feel like spending the money, i feel like i am too late to talk about it by the time I've caught the replay.

I agree on Pavlik. Pavlik doesnt strike me as the future of the division either. Dont get me wrong, the guy puts his work in.... but against a thinking fighter, i can easily see him being confused on his way to a loss. For as much leather as was landed on Pantera, you have to wonder if anyone will ever be afraid of him again.

Who do you think won the Spinks fight?
