    Andre Dirrell looked like he was scared of Carl Froch, even though he beat him.

    Oh yeah! Dirrell started to fight a bit more on the later rounds but the desicion went Froch's way.

    There were many Tyson fights were his opponents were scared before the first ring of the bell. This one comes to mind. Imagine Spinks reaction when he was told that Tyson was punching the wall before the fight.

    It was probably the most optimistic point of the night for him. His only hope was having Tyson break both his hands.

    I know, huh? Maybe the only damage Tyson received that night was not from Spinks but from the wall.

    Derrick Gainer/JMM, I don't see how you can explain Gainer's actions in that fight if you argue that he wasn't just petrified.

    Hopkins/Hakkar.

    The Noriega guy that fought Rigondeaux had no desire to be in the ring.
    For every story told that divides us, I believe there are a thousand untold that unite us.
