not a great fight....#3 anybody?....
congrats to corrales backers....although i thought it was closer than bernstein had it...
one thing that bothers me...something i learned tonight....don`t buy into the myth that these ex fighters(mcgirt and mayweather)are super trainers.....
i watched mayweather give rahman the absolute woirst information in his corner vs john ruiz.....
and tonight,mcgirt,for some strange reason had casamayor run like hell for the first 8 or 9 rounds.....you can`t run from corrales....he chases everybody....it`s all he does....
you have the better boxer...a lefty....with the better chin....that can stand his ground(at least periodically) and hurt corrales..he can`t punch going backwards for 8 rounds....never setting down on his shots.....corrales can`t fight at a standstill or going backwards....he HAS to go forward...
mcgirt gets a ton of credit for gatti...but,gatti hasn`t fought anyone since mcgirt started handling him....
mcgirt and casamayor outfoxed themselves...mcgirt had a terrible gameplan....
he didn`t ask casamayor to stand his ground until the 9th...that`s when casamayor took control...
mcgirt,as is mayweather,are over rated...
again,good job corrales guys...that was most of the group.....happy you guys collected...
