    Calzaghe-Kessler set

    By the end of this fight Kessler will have the same stunned look on his face as Lacy did when he fought Calzaghe.

    Ibragimov Klitschko Feb 23?

    All good points, Ref. Just sort of ironic. The law of unintended consequences, I suppose.

    Ibragimov Klitschko Feb 23?

    Let's see, what happened the last time Vlad faced a left hander with fast hands and a big punch? I think he'll be ready this time though, with faster hands and a bigger punch. Mixed feelings about the demographics, though.

    Floyd Mayweather vs. Ricky Hatton

    There are still some good announcers around. Jim Lampley is excellent. He is very good at describing the action, and his observations often anticipate what happens in the ring. Al Bernstein isn't bad. Larry Merchant has fallen into the "yeah, but.." rut lately. I watched a couple fights...

    Robert Gallery

    Is he playing well? I was watching a replay of Iowa somebody tonight. When guest goof and Iowa alumnus Tom Arnold mentioned Robert Gallery, the announcer did a double diss by comparing Gallery's NFL career to Arnold's acting career. Was the Hairdo just talking out his ass?

    2007 NFL Week 8

    What about this latest fashion of players slowing down and dragging their feet or high stepping well before they reach the endzone? It seems to be getting worse as the players try to top each other. On one TD Antonio Gates seemed to be doing the slowing down bit even as a guy was trying to...

    White Boxers Keep Winning Titles!

    A while back I saw some strange (or typical?) behaviour from Atlas. A white heavyweight from the midwest was thoroughly outboxing a black fighter, and all Atlas harped on during the fight was how a less talented figher was beating a more talented fighter. His point was that the black fighter was...

    2007 NFL Week 6

    Didn't Anderson get cut at one point last year? It's good to see him playing and growing into a clutch receiver, the same thing Mike Hass will do when he gets an opportunity.

    Another hoax

    I've been following this, but no news. It'll just die, with no resolution? The assumption, and hope, is that mean ol' whitey did it, if not we've been smeared. The delay with Columbia, and now with the police looks fishy to me. A lot of people are predicting a hoax (and I'm sure that from...

    Holyfield vs. Ibragimov

    Many years a boxing fan, and I still get fooled by physiques. I expected Calzaghe to run for his life, and he walked right into Lacy no worries. Same deal with Pavlik-Miranda and Taylor. Kelly looks like a pitcher, or a shooting guard, not a murderous puncher, but he sure is. I logged on...

    Kelly Pavlik vs. Jermain Taylor

    True. But I've noticed his hips are a little tight.

    Lyakhovich-Ruiz next week

    I'm guessing that The Wolf has to be hungry before he gets into the ring. He fights, makes a nice pile of cash, then he spends it down before he starts thinking about fighting again. Hence the long time between bouts. I just hope he doesn't turn out to be another Corrie Sanders, with years...

    Kelly Pavlik vs. Jermain Taylor

    Would you call him fast? I wouldn't. Let's just call him sneaky quick. In my prediction I said Taylor would be faster, but Pavlik would have just enough speed to put his big guns on target. I would compare Pavlik to the great Alexis Arguello. Arguello was a tall rangy fighter who almost...

    Andrew Golota vs. Kevin McBride

    This was a no brainer. McBride is at best decent sparring partner material. He's basically a heavy bag with arms and legs. Still, I wanted to watch the fight to see how sharp Golota was, but it looks like no one showed it.

    Peter new champion???

    What a crock these idiot boxing organizations and networks can make of the sport sometimes. Two guys who have both had their asses kicked by Vlad, and Blowtime never mentioned him, except to show Peter's rabbit punch knockdowns of Vlad and imply Peter got a bad decision. Since when does a...

    Kelly Pavlik vs. Jermain Taylor

    I love this kid. I remember reading of him years ago, then he seemed to disappear, but he was just working his way up the ladder. Finally saw him fight, on Versus TV maybe seven or eight fights ago. Pavlik seemed rather slow, and I was wondering what the fuss was about, then he hit the other...

    Kelly Pavlik vs. Jermain Taylor

    I disagree that Pavlik was hurt by the elbow. Taylor was using his elbow to better position an already hurt Pavlik for his punches. A borderline tactic at best, but no worse than Pavlik using the open glove of his left hand to hold Taylor's head in place as he hammered him with his right...

    Your Heritage?

    As a matter of fact I have. My Dad was LDS (Jack Mormon variety) and his family tree is in the LDS Family Library. I've spent hours exploring different branches. It's a good resource.

    Kelly Pavlik vs. Jermain Taylor

    Pavlik is not supposed to be where he is now. They thought they were getting rid of him when they threw him in with Miranda. When Kelly demolished Miranda instead, it was now what do we do? Well, put him in with their "superstar" (HBO's description) friendly judges, and a slow stop referee...
