I wonder if his handlers have tried hypnotism.
There is no guarantee that he has what it takes to be the king of the hill but I would exaust all possibilities.
Theres my smartass!!! :D I have missed these type of comments b-dog!! ;)

guinn looks like grant does in the ring.... they look disinterested, like they really dont wanna be there... there's definately no fire...
It sad..to have potential and do nothing with it. No fire, no win :(
He reminded me of Michael Moorer. I was a big MM fan back in the day when he was hungry, then he just lost it. It seems when some fighters reach a certain platform, they are happy getting there and the desire and hunger escapes them. Joppy had that look the other night too, just not hungry. Tyson too. But Mike is very hard to read.
Yeah, anybody that can "read" Tyson is a gifted person! :eek:
Man, that avatar is freaky!!
Man that is SO true! He need's to take time to think it out...decide if boxing is what he reallly wants to do and if so dedicate himself FULLY to it. He just seemed like he didnt even wanna be there. I like him but it's hard to "cheer him on" when he looks like he doesnt even care :(

I have to admit, I bought into him. Still think he's pretty good, he's just going to have to reavaluate his career. No one can motivate a fighter but himself.

True about Peters! I hope he pans out. He sure hits damn hard. I am looking forward to his next fight. He should fight Liakhovich, that would be a good stepping stone since they both beat a known fighter. My money is on Peters!!!!
Interesti ng matchup. Segui gets hit alot but seems to have a descent chin w/the exception of Mo Harris :p . The Nigeriannightmare vrs the WhiteWolf I LIKE IT. Make it so #1. :eek:
50/50 pick for me just cause Peters defense lacks and I could see those body shot of Liakhovich making some trouble for peters
Like the match up though good fight as an undercard on HBO afterdark

Mike Tyson type of fighter = Guin??? NO. Guin has no power what so ever. This kid will seriously get hurt if he in there w/a top 10 guy. That lazy attitude of his will get him put into a coma. Put a fork in this guy hes done. I was very hyped about this kid about a year year ago and was hoping him and Messi would go at it in the ring. But one is a Bust (Guinn) and the Other is Busted (Mesi)
OH WELL
Maybe this White Wolf gets in shape he could make some noise if anythinmg he fights more like a little guy in that he relentlessley attacks the body. AS FORa Tyson Type of fighter I think will hjave to see if Peters pans out or Kalvin Davis moves up. However they are by no means in the same league as an eighties Tyson.
Guinn just looked like he didn't care if he won or not. He didn't look surprised when he did loose. Beating Grant (IMHO) was a matter of timing, Grant hasn't been close to what he was since Lewis got a hold of him. When they got in the ring, I really thought Guinn would have killed this guy, he looked in much better shape, but that wasn't the case. I can't take anything away from Liakhovich, he did what he needed to do to win. He needs better compitition to solidify his rankings.
The HW division needs a new hero, a "Mike Tyson" kind of fighter. When you look at the belt holders, can you honestly call one of them a true champion?
Does anybody think Guinn will get his act together and rise up to the occasion? I hope so.
I didn't get to see the fight, but I am disappointed. I had hoped Guinn would do better in the division, as he is such a nice young man. Very polite, well spoken kid, the kind of young man that would be good for the sport, kind of a black Joe Mesi. - Oh well - NEXT......
See, thats the main thing that I liked about him too. Its one thing to be a great fighter; but to have a good personality is such a bonus! I know alot of guy's dont care if they act like apes out of the ring, but kids look at them as role models..and theres no way I'd let my daughter listen in on a Tyson interview...you just never know what will be said, and then I would have to explain it! :eek: Rocky Juarez, Juan Diaz are other examples of good guys...I know there are alot more than that, I just cant bring them to mind right now ( I always thought Lennox was a stand up kind of guy too..very well mannered and my kid loves him!!!)

At least Guinn wasn't knocked out. This wasn't as bad a loss as people make it out to be. He just needs to go back to the drawing board.
True...I like him too, and was disappointed and frustrated with him so much! He honestly looked like he would rather be any place other than where he was :confused: Just wouldnt commit to anything...a very lackluster performance :(
That's disappointing. I was on the Guinn bandwagon after the Grant fight. Not that I thought he was going to be a legend, but I did feel that the kid had some really good things going for him. I don't know what his problem is. He just seems so lethargic. Lethargism gets a football player benched; it can get a fighter killed. Guinn needs to re-evaluate his participation in the sport.
