    Henry will win that one. I was with Mack's manager last night and was too distracted to even ask him about what was up with Mack. Stupid me.

    Where's the Stinger!!!???

    Nice fight, and I agree, Henry wins this one. Might be a different story if Yusaf had a chin, but anyway, this will be a good statement fight (or at least career intro) for Chris, much in the same way that Tavoris Cloud received a lot of shine after blasting out a shot JUGO.

    Mack is in for a lot of pain, agony, smashed teeth and broken bones here.

    Chris is a much more lethal hitter than Andrade, and Mack will be looking for a way out of there after about 3 rounds of sampling Chris' power.

    When will Chris Henry fight a top fighter like Pavlik or Jermaine Taylor?

    Bob Spagnola is in charge of making that call, Hanzy.

    I can tell you right now, the top guys want nothing to do with Chris, and that is a fact.

    Mack is a pretty good kid, nice boxer, but he dosen't have the physical strength, conditioning, or power to hold Chris off of him and will be ground down and taken out about midway through.

    Well I think he can rule out Hopkins and Calzaghe for now. Both those guys are only looking for the most money and Henry doesn't provide it yet.

    HARD HITTIN' henry is a fearsome fearsome fella. I am worried for mack's life. HARD HTTIN' henry will splatter mack's medula on the ring apron and dine on his carcas. bring on the big boys after this, all roads run through HARD HITTIN' henry if u want to be the man at 175.

    Chad Dawson...hell I reckon he done flew the coop when old Hard Hittin's name come up. Jasper told me that done coward Michael Spinks Retird just to get out of Henry's way. He fixin' to shape up the erf if you ask me

    No titleholder would waste their time fighting Henry right now. He brings absolutely nothing to the table.

    Mack can punch a bit himself and has a nice right hand. Henry might get tagged a bit, but he'll put Mack away eventually, I think. Mack gets more worn out than knocked out, I think, and that's good for Henry's style.

    You mean Jim "Jasper" Franklin..Chris already took him out in one in Houston.

    Chris Henry could perhaps join some circus and become clown in there.

    I think that's how the fight goes also. This a good fight for both guys. Conditioning is the factor for Mack, but he has good angles on offense. He did drop Andrade with a uppercut. Chris just can't walk through him with that said.
