| It Is The Way It's Always Been - Sunday, 12 February 2012 "Money gone. Shane will take his lumps for the paycheck. It is the way it has always been. The young lions kill the old lions. No different than when Oscar beat down Chavez. At least it's just an undercard fight." --The Roast predicts a paycheck-... Read more... |
| Floyd-Cotto Better Match Than Floyd-Manny - Sunday, 12 February 2012 "I think its a good match up style wise. I will even go as far as to say that this could be a better fight than the much hyped Floyd/Manny super fight. I think Floyds style will give Manny fits. Cotto has become a much more seasoned, calculating f... Read more... |
| Cotto A Two Time Loser, Floyd In A Snoozer - Sunday, 12 February 2012 "Floyd by easy pot shot decision over tweleve predictable rounds. Cotto today is a re-habbed fighter. A two time loser, both times badly. Once to Margarito and then badly decimated by Pacquiao. He has never been the same. Floyd Money Matyweather ... Read more... |
| Mayweather Coulda Been A Legend Like Ali - Sunday, 12 February 2012 "Oh Gaa-w-w-w-d, who cares?!!! Pacquiao fought the whole division for him while he was fighting cherry-pickins and wrestlers. Money May is courting a small pie here. He could have been the next Ali or Tyson if he had stepped up to all the competit... Read more... |
| Real Talk: Cotto Has A Real Chance - Sunday, 12 February 2012 "Cotto is a live dog in this fight. He has a great jab, can box, move and has a good corner. Props to Floyd for taking this fight at 154 and not playing the catch weight games. Cotto is boxing and moving more instead the bulling forward stalking ... Read more... |
| 35 And Full of Jive - Sunday, 12 February 2012 "Will Money May win? Probably so, especially in the City of sin. But is he still all that and a bag of chips? NO! He is now a man of tin. If Cotto makes Money May bleed in sweat, Money May will rust. The end of every era is a must. Money May at ... Read more... |
| Who'll Give Manny Problems? ML Says Bradley BEATS Pacman! - Wednesday, 04 January 2012 "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, Margar... Read more... |
| "Willing to Die" the New "Going to Give 110%," Pt 2 - Wednesday, 04 January 2012 "Willing to die in the ring," is now becoming a standard quote for every sucka to an interviewee.

| "Willing to Die" the New "Going to Give 110%," Pt 1 - Wednesday, 04 January 2012 "I'd rather hear,... "I'd die trying to learn how to box better"....

| Hark, Herald Angels and Haters Sings, Jailtime for the P4P King! - Friday, 23 December 2011 "Incarceration for any lenth of time can suck your soul into oblivion.

| Past the Point of Caring - Friday, 23 December 2011 "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... Read more... |
| Welcome Back, Lurker Fe'Roz - Tuesday, 20 December 2011 "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 ban...

| Ortiz By KO6 - Tuesday, 20 December 2011 "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... s... Read more... |

| Ward is the Tebow of Boxing - Tuesday, 20 December 2011 "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 t... Read more... |
| This Was Sound Fundamentals, Not Home Cookin' - Wednesday, 14 December 2011 "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 sens...

| No Fan of Juan Manuel Khan - Wednesday, 14 December 2011 "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 know... Read more... |
| "A Classic Skill vs. Will Fight" - Wednesday, 07 December 2011 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 vi... Read more... |
| "My Hat Is Off To All of Them" - Wednesday, 07 December 2011 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 a... Read more... |
| Please Karma, Kick Back Harder - Tuesday, 06 December 2011 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 - Tuesday, 06 December 2011 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 ... Read more... |
| "He Went Back To The Old Cotto" - Tuesday, 06 December 2011 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 t... Read more... |
| Margarito Was A Disaster Without Plaster - Tuesday, 06 December 2011 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... Read more... |
| NOT A Manny Fan - Tuesday, 22 November 2011 "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 Mayweathe... Read more... |
| Pacman Earns But Can't Beat Money - Tuesday, 22 November 2011 "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 t... Read more... |

| Joe Made Ali - Tuesday, 08 November 2011 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 ... Read more... |

| Legacy Lost? - Tuesday, 25 October 2011 So long Hopkins, it's been real. You got nothing to prove, Homie.

| Ahoy, It's Time To Be Pinoy - Tuesday, 25 October 2011 Nonito Donaire Jr is beginning to lose his edge. In his latest bout, his performance was like a ship in the ocean dead.

| Cortez Should Pull A Padilla - Wednesday, 28 September 2011 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... Read more... |
| Paging Floyd..Check Out What Amayseng Said - Wednesday, 28 September 2011 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 like... Read more... |
| I Thought His Nickname Was "Maravilla"... - Wednesday, 28 September 2011 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... Read more... |
| Cotto-Margarito II Will Be A Treat - Wednesday, 28 September 2011 Hide the kids. This one is for adults only. They should have scheduled this on Halloween.

| Friday The 13th, Part 7: The Husk Known As Margarito - Wednesday, 28 September 2011 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... Read more... |
| RIP, Floyd's Career - Friday, 23 September 2011 "I am no longer interested in Pacquiao-Mayweather, not the slightest bit. Thanks to the internet age Mayweather will always have his loyal followers.

| Lara Got Madoff-ed - Monday, 11 July 2011 "To say Lara got robbed is an understatement. Paul Williams should retire before he gets hurt!

| Curses, FOILed Again - Thursday, 28 April 2011 Big Problem Unless Martinez Lures In Big Name Brand"Maravilla needs to fight a Big Name Brand to get to next level.

| Could This One Be FOY? - Wednesday, 23 March 2011 Could This One Be FOY?This is the best ticket available in all boxing as far as I know. We've waited too long for this rematch.

| "Don't Like the Judges, Don't Leave It In Their Hands" - Tuesday, 21 December 2010 "Bernard did go down twice albeit the first time might have been called differently.

| Clean up the Corner Chaos - Wednesday, 28 April 2010 "Good first step on the road back for Cotto. His face held up. Seemed more confident with Manny in the corner. Cotto is still a force to be reconed with. A match with the slick Martinez would be interesting at 154. Foreman was brave. Mercante did ... Read more... |
| In Defense Of Dirrell - Monday, 22 March 2010 "People must realize that even though it wasn't a big looking punch, Abraham still was able to turn his leg and back into it and it looked to catch part of Dirrell's temple.
