OK scratch that I haven't seen Martin before.

What is that on Torres head? It looks like a mullet-mohawk hybrid but the party is on top not in the back.

Yeah that hair is a mess. Funny though how stupis I'd look in the ring with my Jack in the Box tatoo on my head

I had it opposite of Teddy I had it 3-1 for Martin but wouldn't be surprised if it's a draw.

[amat]

I'm thankful Teddy has a job with ESPN otherwise he might try to be a judge. That would be all bad.

[amat]

Torres' corner certainly seemed happy with the draw.

[LEGION]

Am I the only one who thought Torres won? I thought he at least won the 2nd and 3rd round, possibly the 1st.

Damn Louis was great.Braddock was a ballsy, game guy.

[amat]

If I remember hearing correctly, Braddock demanded 10% of everything Louis made after this fight in exchange for getting a title shot. Pretty smart guy.

[amat]

I could watch Joe Louis all day, I couldn't imagine watching him live when he fought. That would be great.

That Maya Angelo quote was from When A Caged Bird Sings, read it for school and had like 20 pages dedicated to his fight with Carnera I think it was.

Damn, good first round there. Got a wobble, and a knock down!!

Earnie Shavers #9 all time Heavy weight hitters....huhTeddy is huffing paint

Damn...
With my newly found lifestyle I miss out on chatting on here during fight nights... I might have to re-think my schedule here.

I did see the fights tho as I can see thru the sliding doors.

Escobedo needs to stick to his boxing, he's a really good boxer but too many times he want's to trade and he looks for the KO. If he would just stick to his boxing he'd do very well. The KOs came easy for him early in his career and that's why I think he looks for them often. As I said he can box he just needs to get it in his head. When he popped the jab there was nothing Favela could do. Look at the combos that Escobedo put together upstairs & downstairs 3, 4 punch combos.

Roger IMO, gassed out Lock just never gave up and fought the whole way through. YOu gotta give the guy credit for that because for a while Roger was in full control.

All in all good fights and a good night of boxing.

Mar, thank for the insight on the night and sounds like you had a good time out there.

I used to read through these threads but they're just getting longer and longer, ten pages, its just a can't do thing.

Anyway I've never been that impressed with Escobedo. He does some things well but he's really not that gifted athletically and he doesn't seem like the hardest guy to hit in the world.

Lock frustrated the shit out of me, that fight showed how important mentality is in boxing, cause he should have never been in a position where he could have lost that fight, he was bigger, stronger, faster, at least as skilled and he gave away rounds that he never should have lost. When he finally had to do it he did but he shouldn't have waited that long.

[No Contest]

I thought Torres won , but I wouldn't mnd seeing a rematch this time 6 rounds.
