    I thought The Secret would Royally fuck up Sergio Martinez second time around

    Poor Richard Williams, if getting duffed-up once wasn't enough, against a future P4P star, they sent him back in to get beat even worse.

    How about Brodie-Chi? Now not me personally, I was a big Chi fan, but all the talk for the rematch was about how Brodie had prepared better and knew what to expect. Err the complete opposite happens. Chi was the one that improved massively from the first fight and just beat the living fuck out of him.

    At the time I thought Brodie could do no more than he did in the first fight, Chi could, and did

    I thought Big Frank had a chance second time around as well

    I fully admit I used to fall for the Brit "hype," especially from Sky, a little more back then than now

    Poor Bruno. He could have cleaned up with a few easy defenses. Instead he gets thrown back in with his worst nightmare. Cruel bastards.

    Tarver Jones 2 was a surprise. I expected the opposite.

    Most people thought Eubanks would beat Benn in the rematch as it was at a higher weight and Eubanks would have more time to recover from the weigh in. I disagreed an in fact Benn was a better boxer by that time, more relaxed and better defensively with his head movement. He should have got the decision, Eubanks did not expect Benn to be that elusive.

    I also knew Shane was never going to beat Winky so do not know why he bothered a second time. A bit closer but same result.
