What Counts
On Saturday, May 19, 2007 at the FedEx Forum in Memphis, Tennessee Jermain Taylor will entertain another fighter moving up a weight class to test Bad Intentions' mettle, when he gloves up against Cory Spinks. Taylor's WBC and WBO Middleweight Championships are up for grabs, and while Spinks doesn't possess all that much pop, no one can deny he is as slick as they come technically. Would you be terribly surprised if he stole a win by giving Taylor a boxing clinic? Then, we have a rarer-than-it-oughta-be showdown between prospects Edison Miranda, the entertaining trash talker from Colombia, and Kelly Pavlik, an up 'n comer from the a Midwest fight town going way back, Youngstown, Ohio. Tell us, TSS readers, whose stock will zoom highest on the night of May 19

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
