Who'll Give Manny Problems? ML Says Bradley BEATS Pacman!

"I feel Bradley and Peterson can give Pacquiao some problems. Pacquiao has faced bigger guys with no defense. In addition, Pacquiao has only done well against boxer punchers (Mosley, Cotto), face first and straightforward fighters (Hatton, Margarito), and old fighters (Oscar, Mosley). The pe...

"Willing to Die" the New "Going to Give 110%," Pt 2

"Willing to die in the ring," is now becoming a standard quote for every sucka to an interviewee. I will tell you like "Old Blood and Guts" said. "A true warrior doesn't die for a cause or a belief, he kills da otha' bastard for that bastard's cause or belief..." The way Cotto worded it was ri...

"Willing to Die" the New "Going to Give 110%," Pt 1

"I'd rather hear,... "I'd die trying to learn how to box better".... Besides... even though Rubio represents a more experienced, seasoned opponent... and a far better boxer... statements like that should be reserved for opponents anxiety producing opponents of Hagler-like dimension only.... He...

Hark, Herald Angels and Haters Sings, Jailtime for the P4P King!

"Incarceration for any lenth of time can suck your soul into oblivion. Floyd will learn to relish not putting himself into a position where his basic human rights and privilleges are snatched away in an instant and his very life becomes property of the state.. And I promise you, it'll be a l...

Past the Point of Caring

"The Pac-Floyd fight will never happen, i called this after the first talks broke down what, almost two years ago now.. Honestly, i don't even care if it does happen now...Flloyd will be 35 and way away from his best and Manny will be what 33 and already looks to be slowing down a bit since ...

Welcome Back, Lurker Fe'Roz

"As for Berto/Ortiz, I think Showtime has a winner. For me, neither guy has ever proven to be truly elite but stylistically these two are made for each other. Berto is just flat out limited by his horrible footwork and poor balance but he can bang. And he will have to .... because the Victor...

Ortiz By KO6

"Even with the Mayweather disaster, Ortiz is an improving fighter, in fact that stage and being in with the smarts and skill of Mayweather have made Ortiz a better fighter even in such defeat. Berto hasn't improved since he was 11 years old... sad...His last fight showed him looking the sam...

Ward is the Tebow of Boxing

"My daughter's family is active in the community and thei local Church. When I told them that Andre SOG Ward was the Tebow of boxing, they became engrossed in the fight like grizzled cigar-chomping boxing fans. Ward presents a different look to the prizefighter stereotype...a good look.... c...

This Was Sound Fundamentals, Not Home Cookin'

"I am really not buying into the "home cooking" hoopla. I have watched the fight 3 times already and I remain convinced that it was an even fight through the middle to late rounds. Khan clearly won the 12th by being more busy but one got the sense that Petersen was landing the more hurtful s...

No Fan of Juan Manuel Khan

"Happy for Peterson, he earned the win! Big mouth Khan can keep on talking. How can Roach expect his fighter to do a poor version of JMM, dashing, moving and sticking and coming out on top? Khan was on his high horse running for his life. He knows the rules, why does the ref need to remind h...

"A Classic Skill vs. Will Fight"

It's a classic skill vs. will fight and, while I give Froch a chance to exert his will into a late stoppage, I think Ward is well on his way to dominating the P4P lists in the years to come and will effectively box his way to a fairly close UD victory. Regardless of the outcome, Lucian Bute ...

"My Hat Is Off To All of Them"

Still picking Ward to win by UD. Ward was one of my two original picks, the other was Abraham who didn't do to well. I thought he could transition to 168 but it didn't happen. I think Froch has definitely gotten better since the tournament began as did Ward and these are the two best of the fi...

Please Karma, Kick Back Harder

Real Karma would be if Margarito's millions suddenly went up in flames. Or if he went blind in that eye... but I'll settle for a Cotto victory. ---TSS reader Brown Sugar, NOT a Tony fan

Tony Was A Tiger Coming On Late

If Marg was "brickless" this time out you'd think that Cotto would have the courage to duke it out with Marg. Cotto now knows for sure whether or not Margarito truly had something in his gloves the night they first fought. During the round prior to the stoppage when the doctors almost stoppe...

"He Went Back To The Old Cotto"

I'm surprised by Cotto's conditioning, it looked as good as I've ever seen him. He had enough gas in the tank for 12 rounds if needed. Revenge is a great motivator but will Cotto keep on performing like this again or was that it? He went back to the old Cotto, the one before round 6 of ...

Margarito Was A Disaster Without Plaster

Disciplined, accurate, busy but economical, good power...absolutely prime Cotto. A dissection. Margarito landed but simply did not hurt him without building materials in his fists. A good way to win. And, for the record, when a fighter has one eye completely closed, rules dictate that the figh...

NOT A Manny Fan

"Pacquiao has always been nothing more than an overrated, overprotected "fighter", whose fights have been cherry picked very carefully by Arum to make some serious money. I've been watching boxing since the mid 80's when Chavez defeated Mayweather (floyd's uncle)...and sad to see that the th...

Pacman Earns But Can't Beat Money

"Pac-Man should be an underdog if he ever faces Mayweather because he isn't as skilled and can't knock Mayweather out, which would be his only chance because he definitely can't out box Money. I learned more about Mayweather in the Mosely fight than any other fight. Most fighters would have ...

Fire Exit

"You know that Manny Pacquiao ran out of fire. He only has the eye of the tiger now."--TSS reader "Marmero" thinks Pacquiao has slipped

Joe Made Ali

Of all the fighters from the golden age of the late 60s and early 70s, Joe was the guy who did the most with the least. Joe had bigger heart than them all. But he was short with short arms. The greatest left hook of all time. Joe was the only one who gave Ali serious fits. More than Foreman. M...

The Roast Salutes Smokin' Joe

The death of a true boxing icon, Smokin' Joe Frazier. Rest in peace, Champion, my condolences to Joe's family and friends. Also, my deepest condolences to Fe'Roz, the biggest Joe fan that I know. The Roast bows his head. ---TSS Hall of Fame reader The Roast salutes the greatest hooker of all t...

Legacy Lost?

So long Hopkins, it's been real. You got nothing to prove, Homie. I think you wanted out of the fight honestly and felt you couldn't handle the younger bigger stronger slick southpaw and would get hurt bad, outclassed and stopped or a onesided beatdown and lose all the accolades you got fr...

Ahoy, It's Time To Be Pinoy

Nonito Donaire Jr is beginning to lose his edge. In his latest bout, his performance was like a ship in the ocean dead. He needs to Pinoy fight. And quit trying to become a slick, quick, gingerbread boy from da-hood sight. Trying to be something else, NDJ will lose it all. It's time to go back ...

Cortez Should Pull A Padilla

Every fighter fights and take any advantage that is given to him. Floyd ain't a dang referee, or doing refereeing. Money May was not at fault, nor was Vicious Victor. They are like fighting cocks who must be regulated. Any miss stepping is because of a darn faulty referee. Cortez oughta take re...

Paging Floyd..Check Out What Amayseng Said

Floyd at 154 would be the best fight. Floyd has a belt at 154 and walks around 150. This would be the best fight possible. And Floyd's toughest challenge. One I think he can't win. Sergio at this stage and age is better than Floyd.---Amayseng likes Sergio over Floyd, in the Forum on ...

I Thought His Nickname Was "Maravilla"...

At 160 there are no opponents for him? How about moving up to 168 instead of challenging a natural jr. welter? Sounds like he's already making excuses. The bum doesn't deserve a shot at a big payday, after all the disrespect he's given to Pacquiao just to get noticed. Anyone who doesn't ...

Cotto-Margarito II Will Be A Treat

Hide the kids. This one is for adults only. They should have scheduled this on Halloween. Miguel better have some new tricks in his bag or else Antonio is going to steal his treats.--Fe'Roz on Cotto-Margarito II, in the Forum, 9/27

Friday The 13th, Part 7: The Husk Known As Margarito

I liked the video when Woodsy says he looked deeply into Margarito's impenetrable eyes and still couldn't decide if he was guilty or innocent of wearing tampered gloves. That's because there's nothing in there.... The spirit that inhabits the husk known as Margarito is just a pure sadist with an...
