    molina didn't beat delahoya. he simply roughed him up and made him look like shit. not sure where you heard that, baldelli, but certainly not from me.

    perhaps I was just 'joking', the get out of jail free card that some dullards tend to use when they make outlandish claims such as joe mesi would beat arreola if they fought today, or margarito would defeat roberto duran. who can forget chris byrd being more exciting than ray leonard?

    I never said Chris Byrd is more exciting than Leonard, Reed said I said it. I said Ray Leonard is awful to watch and the worst Superstar ever to watch fight. He said how can a Chris Byrd fan say that. Byrd was in some awful fights. I'd rather watch Tua/Ibeabuchi, and Tua/Byrd OVER any of Gay Ray's fights for sure. That said, none of gay ray leotard's fights ever approach the awfulness of Byrd Williamson or Oquendo. On a fight per fight rating I imagine Leotard would rank higher although I can't think of a single fight I his I would ever rewatch except the Camacho fight.

    As if you have any right to talk, You suck dna from the tap of Floyd Mayweather and as awful as some of Byrd's fights have been never have hundreds run for the exits rather than watch a cowardly performance. PBF has given the UFC a shot in the arm that will last for decades. His performance against DLH had people chanting for the UFC. Don't throw stones weakling and I mean that figuratively because you probably couldn't lift one.

    Sorry if the nuance is too much for you. After all, Herve, you had difficulty with saying anything other than "Da plane Boss, da plane."

    in terms of putting him on the map and a new income bracket it certainly was. it was a major event. especially considering Hopkins was the first to KO ODH.

    Neither fighter was doing much during those rounds (referring to the Quartey/ODH fight). Neither fighter wanted to lead. It became a jabbing contest that neither fighter dominated. Plus, round 12 was easily a 10-7 round. The ropes were holding Quartey up, whether he was throwing punches or not, a second knock-down should've been called.

    Neither guy was doing much for most of the fight, but it was clear Quartey was doing the better work for most of the middle rounds. The only round I gave to DLH from rounds 6 through 11 was the 10th.
