What Counts May 5th, if you haven't heard, Oscar De La Hoya will fight Floyd Mayweather. The fight is being billed as the Super Bowl of boxing. The hype machine has been in overdrive for three months, as HBO and Golden Boy Promotions work to show that boxing still has more than a bit of life in it. But we wonder, can the bout live up to the hype? |

Witter A Slapper, A Flapper (A Career In The Crapper?)
"Another upset! I keep making the right bet. I never thought for a moment that Witter was a good boxer or a hitter. He is just another slapper and a big-mouth flapper. In the hurt business, no word can hit you like a fist. He got knocked on his butt, and his words didn't cushion his fall. Hopefully, he will now shut up. More of today's boxers should learn the art of hurting, and cut out all this garbage of hyping. All the sightings of "Big Foot" and "UFOs" have been delusions, but these sightings of upsets in 2008 boxing are hard realities." ---TSS reader Radam is lovin' the upsets
