If you eliminate controversial decisions, losses that were avenged, and take fighters close to their prime ages and weights, it's harder to come...
That will be televised stateside tomorrow night, I believe, on FSN.
That's part of the beauty of the fight, though. He wouldn't be taking the Andre Berto route to a title (if he won).
Not if the Cotto rematch still goes ahead. It's not like Arum hasn't done that before.
It may be because most fighter's mentioned in this thread didn't come as close to getting knocked out in their "virtuoso" fights as Pavlik did.
He's the IBF #1, making him next in line for Dawson's title. It's near the top of my list for fights I'd like to see next year.

Steve Kim:
If you think Barrera was robbed in the first fight, then we simply disagree. I thought the screams of robbery after both fights were way too...
The first two Morales-Barrera fights were about as even as you can get...Barrera's "superiority" and "scoreboard" didn't come until the third...
And Junior Jones.:fightme: :lol:
I agree. Throw in Bradley-Holt, Demarco-Raimkulov, Adamek-Flores, some solid ESPN2 fights (like Urango-Ndougdjo) and not a lot of pay per view...
Well, '08 had one really good month of boxing...I'm not sure the year as a whole stacks up, though.
Soto...but you wouldn't have known that from watching it on tv.
Yeah, that was complete shit. And the picture quality sucks on TV Azteca's broadcasts.

That's a given in this fight.
"Nicolay Valuev's performance in this fight is one of the worst I've ever seen." "It's atrocious." "It's a dreadful performance by Valuev."...
Who do you want to give it to, Raul Marquez?
My stream mercifully cut out.
Is Valuev on the take for this fight?:lol: I'll wait for the threads if HOlyfield wins.
Holyfield back on dancing with the stars. Valuev thrown off by it.
Is Valuev getting some boo's?
Ringwalks.
I think this is part of the difference in opinion. Did you read/hear opinions on the fight before you watched it? If that's the case, then...
Eileen Olszewski-Nadia Raoui, on tape delay, is up next.
I loved hearing Charles talking about the acoustics from ringside.:lol:
Coco apparently went down but not ruled a KD...looks hurt this round. Now he's put down. It's over. Corner throws towel. Right uppercut,...
Nick Charles says Holyfield-Valuev about an hour away.
He fought Gatti, Mayweather and Forrest on HBO/PPV. How much more should he have gotten out of it?
