1. His useless career
Other than his knockout of Jaidon this guy has virtually no notable wins. Him skipping out on that ESPN fight was arrogant and foolish and while he was credibly sick against Miranda, it was still a pitiful loss considering miranda has become the ricardo mayorga of the division.
2. Greg Leon
Greg Leon is a biatch, he went from being a very credible and insightful blogger to a wannabe lou dibella managing and acting like hes got some kind of credible background within the sport and beyond. He fronted with some stupid ass open letter talking about "Allen Green 1, Showtime 0" like somehow he deserved to be in the supersix with no title and no notable wins, and then was acting like he really took it to showtime by fighting for his guy to get in. Get over yourself. This guy Leon dikkrides anyone who will give him facetime and got very upset when mayweather rightfully started giving him the cold shoulder, hes a joke and having him as your manager is pathetic (see Kelly Pavlik)
3. Hes annoying.
This guy runs his mouth like everyone is either scared of him or like hes some kind of destructive machine. I remember when he got dropped by Donnie Mcrary on ESPN, wow what a fukkin world beater, and again, getting humiliated by Miranda on his only HBO appearence, this guy has done absolutely nothing other than torch a prospect who no longer has a career anyway, get over yourself, shut your mouth and beat somebody
so fukk him. Im american 100 percent stars and stripes, but i hope everyone in this tournament beats his sorry ass.
Bumped for truth
Yea, I actually thought he would be sooo motivated and hungry for this fight but from what am hearing he just didnt turn up, I looked at the scorecard and they reflect one of those Mayweather's scorecards 120-108! Shit.
smh @ "get over it"
Margarito is well liked in tijuana as well, i guess i should get over his fukkin handwraps too?
Wtf are you on about? Magarito is a cheater. TS is hating on green because he doesn't like his personality. I was saying he's not that bad of a guy.
...and yes, you should get over it. He's back regardless if we like it or not. Thank Arum.
it's true he's not a bad fighter at all. he probably won the first 2 rounds vs calzaghe since neither guy really did anything and manfredo kept him at distance. then the windmill attacked killing him instantly.
He's certainly not elite, but he's not atrocious.
Manfredo is actually a decent legit win. I think that guy has more skill than any other Contender who has come out of that show.
EDIT: Except Troy Ross, who is pretty damn good.

poor bika. he legitimately knocks out the great manfredo(no shoeshine not even hitting him ko like calzaghe) and now no one will fight him.

Does IBO have mando's? It's a fact that Bika won the belt in 2008 and that he hasn't defended it at all.

I have no idea... I know nothing about the IBO. He should get ranked in the WBO... he could win a fight vs. Stieglitz probably.
I mean... as shitty as sanctioning bodies are... at least they have mandatory shots that people like Bika can work towards... I don't feel too bad for him.

That's right, but he won the IBO belt and hasn't been able to get any fights. As I said I'm not an expert on Bika, but think he has been in the ring far too little in the last couple of years. Getting a crack at Green would have been a nice break for him.

I think so too. Dibellas fighter Taylor out. Enter Dibellas fighter Green. I also felt it was a bit shady how the sneaked out of a qualifier against Bika.
It could also be argued that Miranda was more deserving of a place than Green.
I would bet that there was a deal with the promoters that if their guy dropped, they got a fighter related to them in or something along those lines.
He's had a shot at Bute and Calzaghe, and he won The Contender. It's not like he has been super underexposed.

I like Bika and feel a bit sorry for him. He sure hasn't had the chances his talent should have given him. I guess this tells you the importance of having a good manager.

It might have been... I also heard his finances were not in line or something dumb like that.
I didn't hear about just needing another week. That would have been a really good fight.

Wasn't it about a visa problem or something? I think Bika needed another week? Not sure though.

Bika was the one who withdrew from that match... not Green's problem.
Miranda has been on quite the losing spree since his win over Green. Pavlik, Abraham and getting shut out by Andre Ward right before the tournament came together didn't help his case much.

he likes to look at his feet in the middle of fights and he trains hitting the double end bag and the speed bag with his eyes closed. strange human(if he is indeed human)

The only reason he's in the tournament is because of Lou Dibella. He should be grateful.
I've come to the conclusion that he should have been in instead of Taylor anyway. Taylor was coming off a loss and had done 0 business at 168. Other than Bute, both Green and Bika were probably more qualified than Taylor to get into the tournament. The problem in, Taylor made that money for the tournament and network, so he was put in it.
