    Demarcus Corley was stopped last month in a fight at lightweight?

    I just saw that on boxrec, anybody has seen the fight?

    surpising. after he went to war with Cotto, and gave PBF a good fight, i was thinkin he'd be a threat at 135. he has good instincts in there, but maybe the weight loss killed him?

    He was totally ripped at 140 lbs. I guess he had to take all the sperm off his ass to make weight.

    He's old and never was that much so, not surprising.

    Yeah, I saw it. I was actually kind of surprised because he had been in Floyd's camp and was talking about how much he learned from Floyd about training your ass off and what not. Next thing I know the mofo losses the fight. Go figure. :dunno:

    Was he dominated or it was a close fight? The guy that beat him doesn't seem like a world beater but he dropped him twice. It seems that he got beat worse than against Mayweather or Cotto.

    he lives in Hoodbridge, VA now. he's not very popular down here. mitchell is a boring fighter too, but he and too sharp were well received in the metropolitan area.

    My bad, I used a bad choice of words there. I meant I saw the article back when he lost, not that I saw the fight.

    Yes one of the worst fights ever. Only one that comes close to being so horrible was Bailey losing to Ishe Shit.
