Drop In Weight=Sad Fate
“Great performance by Andre Ward. I did not expect him to dominate like that. Dawson has always shown a good chin. It was shocking to me to see him get knocked down like that. Coming down in weight was not a good idea. Fighters have to stop doing this. Cotto got spanked by Pacman. Roy Jones downward spiral started after coming down from heavyweight after the Ruiz fight. Sugar Ray Leonard got his azz whipped by Terry Norris after going down to junior middle. Ward was awesome but Dawson was drained.” –The Roast says dropping down in weight is not smart

YOU GUYS ROCK
Another stellar year from our Forum crew, the best in this known universe. Results for Reader of the Year are still being tabulated. In a moment of weakness, I hired CJ Ross to help with the computation and, well, it didn’t go well. Happy New Year to the best and brightest amateur scribes! –Editor Mike

(MGM) Grand Illusions
“Boxing is full of optical illusions. And I give Money May MAD props for doing a mix of Houdini and Marlin The Magician. Wow! Money May fought a club-fighting-like humbug in “The Cali Ghost.” And a hyped-up B fighter in Canelo. The promotions were grand to get eyeballs and easy impressionable minds behind those PPV screens. Because the live gates didn’t sell out.” –Radam isn’t sold on this being the year of Money May

War Torn But Still Dangerous
“It must be said that even a wounded, war torn Martinez is still a more dangerous threat than Canelo for Cotto. The powers that be must be expecting a phenomenal turnout.” —Brown Sugar says that Martinez is a tougher out for Cotto than Canelo
