Allan "Sweetness" Green improved his career record to 20-0, defeating Donnie McCray in six rounds on Wednesday Night Fights.
did anyone see this yesterday? Green, incontrol most of the fight consistently got tapped by a left hand. He went down in during the 3rd round , he survived the round and went on later to win by KO in the 6th. I know he has been labeled as the next great thing, but no way he is ready for Calzaghe or Lacy.
He looks very skilled, but too cocky at the same time. I don't think you can be champion when you don't take every fight seriously. The guy should have gotten ko'd.
you're right that he didn't take this fight seriously and he got lucky his opponet got winded, but i was surprised at allens demeanor in the interview, the guy is humble, i thought he'd be talking trash and calling out calzaghe but then again he knew he couldn't do that after being knocked down.

props to Donnie McCrary, the guy had NO CHANCE but he made the most of his big opportunity to be on tv. hopefully he gets a lot more fights, he was really stepping up against Green and he made it an exciting fight. Green ain't ready for Calzone yet, two maybe three, top 10 supermiddleweights and i think he will be. Green needs to get used to fighting guys with skills like his own before he'll ever be a champion
Funniest thing ever about this fight. Beforehand, my girlfriend asked who I thought would win, and I said Green would KO him in the third. She said fine, "I'll take the other guy". I was like, no way, those kind of things simply do not happen. I told her I can pick "upsets" in bigger fights, but picking this guy (I still did not know his name until after the first round) to beat Green was just ridiculous. I told her you at least have to know something about the "underdog" if you're calling an upset.
When McCrary went down in the third, she was like, "wow, you were right" and I thought I was the man, but then when McCrary almost took him out, we both went nuts. Truly a crazy moment.
One question though: why the fuck does Joe Tessitore ALWAYS pull for the underdog? I hate that shit
Joe Tessitore is an idiot. He's Teddy Atlas's bitch/yes-man....

does anyone have a .gif of the punches that put green down? i saw the replay at the end of the fight and it was krazy. Green got caught wit like 4 or 5 bombs before he went down...
I know you were real high on green
haha, was that intended as a pun? :D
but can you imagine if Lacy or Calzaghe caught him flush?
i can. lights out!!!! green is not ready for either lacy or calzaghe. especially if either one of them came in fighting kamikaze style.
yup! Green was fvckin exxposed as an ovahype joke. A bum hurt his ass mo than he hurt the bum. This guy has no future on in boxing to be honest. Aha!
he got up to win w/ a ko, regained composure, and may learn from his mistakes aha!
You people make me sick to my stomach. Fucking bunch of monkey loving bitches. Green got caught with a tap, yes you fucking turds a tap. And he got wacked with like four hard punches after that. NO, but he still gets credit from you nuthuggers, but Cotto fights people with good ko power and people who are not journeymen and he is exposed. You jerks deserve to get your asses kicked. Green wont last a round with a Taylor or even Winky would ko his sorry ass. He was floored by a nobody and he still gets credit. At least Cotto was floored by a guy who had twenty something ko's. This forum is full of blackies who just hate the fact that a small little island like PR has had more champions then all of your crummy countries. And thats the truth.

No offense, but i hate how people say Cotto was floored. Even Cotto said he got knocked down. He didnt at all, he was CLEARLY pushed or pulled down w/e u wanna call it. I think that 8 count was good for him though, but he jus was not floored he was pushed.
When Green dropped McCrary with the bodyshots, my roommate was all, "oh shit he's done." I was hoping McCrary would come out with no brain damage (as he already seemed a bit slow on the speech side of things) and then BOOM. Kid was just teeing off...that fight made my night...Allan Green got a big time reality check.
I'd like to see Green and Chad Dawson fight each other. Dawson would take that dude out with the quickness.
srzly.......
Did anyone notice how Mcray went out of his way after the fight to hug Green? He hugged him like three times and the third time he kissed him on the cheek. He was sayning something to Green, it seemed like he was apologizing for knocking him down in the 3rd.
lol.................
had mccrary been able to muster some more punches after that KD I think green was toast. mccrary didn't throw shit after he tagged him like that...and i couldn't hear his corner screaming for him to jump all over green (like i would have been doing).
i compare this to the college football game...where a top 10 or 5 school is beating a terrible, unranked school by 7. allofasudden, the shitty school scores a miracle touchdown to get within 1 with only seconds left. instead of going for 2 (mccrary going for the homerun shots) they go for 1 and try for overtime (where they are going to most likely get smoked by the better school).
shady analogy sure, but mccrary had the upset served to him on a platter and didn't capitalize. i would have been swingin on that motherfucker til the cows came home.
YUP, if Green got hurt by a bum then who knows what can happen LMAO. He got shooked bad. No credit is given if you got rocked/dropped bad by a bum at this point when people ovahype you n stuff. You''re suppose to KO and sestroy a BUM, NOT FVCKIn SURVIVE IT. LMAO!!!!!!!
He gets credit for coming back to win , but it does not bode well for his future.
