i haven`t been around much lately....but,i have some observations on last night`s stuff...
first off,...casamayor`s head is as lethal a weapon as anything i saw land with a glove on it last night....
i heard diamond`s corner tell him to watch out for casa`s head....several times.....but,and i was listening closely,i heard nobody working the ref....
every sport`s sideline or corner guys should be working the ref...
what`s the sense of warning your guy?...scream at the ref between rounds....get his attention...try and get yourself a point...which,in this case,turns the fight into a win instead of a questionnable draw....
the corner work i`ve seen recently has been abyssmal...aside from goossen......
floyd mayweather sr is an utter moron...mcgirt is way overrated...
even stoney stone works the ref...i`d rather have him in my corner than some of these so-called great trainers...at least the guy`s an advocate...
and i have to add fenech talking about geting tyson some rounds....?????
alot of what happened last night falls on fenech,imo..a good bit,actually.....tyson never comes out like that....and he apparently got tired quickly with this huge guy roughing him up...and laying on him..
the idea is to win...and get another payday...anybody that was under the illusion that mike was gonna be champ again needs shock therapy...
getting rounds?.....that means they thought the win was a forgone conclusion....
and that`s ridiculous...39..coming off knee surgery...inactive....get a win...move forward...
...
on the tyson fight...and fenech`s blunder...
""The first round was an even event, as it seemed as if Tyson """didn't hurl one punch with bad intentions on it during the entire three-minute session.""" But it was Tyson, looking better at times in this fight than he had in years forcing the action, employing head movement and good footwork. After Mike ran off three rounds, McBride seemed to realize that the Mike Tyson of 2005 is not the one-punch knockout artist that he once was. And as Tyson tired, he became frustrated with McBride's holding.""
bobbing and weaving but not punching?
i said on another site,if this thing got to the 5th,mike could be in trouble....
maybe he loses anyway...but a 5`10", 39 year old puncher has to make hay while he`s fresh...not after a few rounds of having a 6`5" 271 pound behemoth lay on him...all the while gaining confidence... fenech could fight....but,he really screwed up here...
finally,laila ali,while probably talented,appears to be ducking all the real challenges that are available to her...
she was offered lucia rijker...who is soooo much smaller...she shpuld beat rijker...she`d have 20pounds and height on her....
but,it`s not an absolutely sure thing like the matron,christy martin...
she`s obviously avoiding ann wolfe and letitia robinson....
the girl she fought last night had 7 fights...total...no stoppages....can you say"safe opponent?...
ali could well beat robinson and wolfe...and rijker....she`s the face of women`s boxing....
she needs to put up...
