    Now the real boxing card. 100% Judah free. :fightme::fightme:

    Great idea by the IBF. Lorenzo lost his last eliminator and Marquez was overmatched agianst Abraham, so let´s put Lorenzo back in an IBF eliminator again.

    Yeah, Miranda has no chin. 3rd time he was KTFO. Says a lot about the alleged puncher Quillin that he couldn´t stop Miranda.

    Or not, did Steward drop Banks before the fight?

    According to the announcers he wanted a crack at the Ring Mag #1 instead. Took less money to fight Adamek to.

    Adamek is fun but he'll have a short shelf life.

    Yeah, he just crumpled in the corner. Banks was finished after the first knockdown.

    Main Events has a pretty good thing going with Adamek at the Prudential Center.

    And I love that Farhood mentioned the old Kronk-inspired low left of Banks.

    Anybody else think Eddie Cotton was a little slow getting in there for the last KD?

    It mightbe a stupid question, because it's throwing out there a hypothetical circumstance that's hard for all of us to imagine. And the answer to the question may have no real implications.

    But having said that, here goes:

    If Dawson were not a southpaw, would his other attributes like his hand-speed, counter-punching and punching power have been enough to dominate Adamek in the fashion he did? Afterall, let's not forget that Adamek scored a bonified knock-down late in thefight. But then again, Dawson's ability to recover and once again take over the action was impressive.

    Any input?

    What about bizarro world Double. What if Dawson was right handed and Adamek a southpaw! Would Adamek had been the one painting the masterpiece just to get dropped late in the fight but surviving and winning easily the fight? Or what if both were southpaws? Would both win 11 rounds and get knocked down late? I think a much better, skilled fight would've been if both were southpaws.

    wow. you're really obssessed with insulting me. you act like a kindergartner who has a crush on someone and doesn't know how to display it except by slinging insults.

    you're a real piece of work.

    i "thought" i was apologizing for the absurdity of my question, prior to asking it. so it's not as if i'm oblivious to the question's loftiness. but i guess a dick like you still can't resist to essentially repeat what i've already said, and be the smart ass that you can't help but be.

    but i think despite your childish references and irrelevant counter-examples, there is some insight that could be gained from disucssing the topic.

    but it's no surprise at all that V10 and little Neil would not be the ones to help that cause. it's too bad that the prickiest posters on this board seem to be the ones that post the most.

    as REED would say, the next time V10 posts something worthwhile will be the first.

    if I was slinging smack as well as insults you would simply grin and bear it, you scatterbrained syringe jockey.

    for what its worth I found the first six words of your hypothetical post to be quite accurate.

    Sorry Double, I'm a nice guy but you're too much of a target and your stupidly biased, out of this world rants turn me off quite a bit about you. I'm gonna try to give a serious answer... If Dawson wasn't a southpaw he wouldn't be the fighter he is, so it's a bit pointless to discuss how the fight would develop. My guess is Dawson would still have won as it was the speed and skills that troubled Adamek the most but no doubt, fighting a lefty ain't easy no matter who you are.

    He saw a man walk for that long rubberlegged, not come forward when he asked him too, and he still waited for more than one flush punch to land...

    Yeah, he was late. At least it was a definiteve KO.
