    I'm a very personable chap!:nono:

    I don't care too much for personalities when talking about my favourite fighters...for if it were just about personality then Mickey Ward would be number 1.

    The five mentioned at the top and the rest are the guys with incredible skills and unique fighting talent.:cool:

    fair enough, those are type of fights i like most as well. I prefer to watch a guy take apart an opponent with skill though not just a 8 foot reach, 20lb weight advantage and a clinch.

    Nah. I knew Vinny had zero chance of beating Jones. All I was hoping for was a respectable showing and I think he provided that considering that he had no business fighting at 168, much less against Jones. Vinny came to fight and the ref had to all but sit on him when stopping the fight after the last knockdown.
    Even more funny than the Sugar Ray stuff was the "mistimed caffeine" excuse after the fight. :lol:
