    Great calls on both (Duran/Camacho/Paz and Pac/Bradley)!!! I'm a huge Evander Holyfield fan, but his "rivalry" with John Ruiz was horrible. It is by far the worst to me, since as a Holyfield fan I was forced to watch probably the ugliest series in history. Just proves that Norman Stone and Ruiz could make anyone look bad in there.

    I am sorry you had to sit and watch those fights but Valuev v Ruiz was even worse.

    Product of Don King in house useless round robin at it's finest. The beginning of the ugliest run in Holyfields career, battered by Toney next and just badly thought out moves to "fight" styles like Byrd and Donald. Larry F'n Donald Just be glad they didn't go for a 4th after "draw" aka Holyfield win in last fight.

    I think Holyfield won all of them and hate Ruiz for faking a low blow when Evander landed a body shot.

    Ruiz held Kirk Johnson's head down so that all body shots strayed low and then Kirk was just like "fuck it" and landed one last punch to the testes

    Groves vs Degale just because they were both before peak and they made it sound a like world title unification fight.

    Frampton vs Quigg because Frampton is just a much better fighter and Quigg for me is just, just and I mean just world level.
    You say tomato,
    ‘n I say …… it correctly.

    That is very harsh on both accounts.

    How often do you see 2 young undefeated fighters fight one another at such an early stage and not talk crap about building up the fight and interest but just getting the fight on? Not often BJS v Junior is the other example but they are few.

    Was reminded of Azumah Nelson v Jesse James Leija going four times. Or greybeards Nelson and Fenech in third fight.

    In that case add Jones Jnr v Hopkins 2.
