I love Maidana, great fighter to watch, but I think it will be a close fight early, with Khan edging 4 of the first six rounds, but maybe being dropped in a flash knockdown sort of way. Khan will rally the second half, knock Maidana down late and claim a close, clear UD.
That being said I could see either guy bombing the other out in a few rounds!
Allan Green has too many damn problems, it always sounds as though the man is going to fall apart! "my colon was removed" this, "my stomach shrank" that
Wow, just finished watching Floyd's greatest hits and I have to say, how can anyone call themselves a boxing fan and hate on Money Mayweather..
What a career this man has had...
2x Castillo
Corralles
Hernandez
Dela Hoya
Hatton
Judah
Chavez
Baldomir
Mosley
10 time World Champion
Top 10 P4pounder 12 out of 14 years
Barely lost rounds.
Undefeated.
2 time Lineal WW Champ in his 4th weight class.
Greatest 130 Pounder of all time.
Love him or hate him, this man has had an incredible career.. Yep.
NoCeilings, you have totally missed the point. People don't hate Floyd for his abilities, as his skills are PHENOMENAL. People don't hate him cause he beat their favourite fighter. People, myself included, hate him because a man with his skills should be an AMBASSADOR for the sport. Floyd comes off as a hoodlum, buffoon, racist criminal.
I was just shitting my pants and saying "****...it's over...May just got exposed...there goes his career"
This is what I hate about boxing fans. A dude is 40-0 (25) and all of a sudden hes exposed cause he gets rocked once? His career is over? No, only because us morons put so much importance in that "0". Floyd is a magnificent fighter, and even if he did get dropped and put out, his career wouldnt be over.
Baldomir is easily the worst fighter of all time, he would get destroyed if he ever got in the ring with Clottey again, or Maussa, or Margarito.
Total fucking bum.
Fuck off.
Cloud comes out fast again, but dosn't land yet. Nice head movment and a WICKED right hand just misses for Cloud. Right hand for Cloud. Woods looks very composed. Grazing hook for Woods. Both guys really working the jab well. Woods hit Cloud 33 times in round 2. Cloud taunts Woods. NICE hook by Woods. Another. Bodyshot for Cloud. Right hand grazes for Cloud. Right uppercut snaps Cloud's head back. Woods doing a beauty of a job with his left hand, but now Cloud slightly staggers Woods! Woods taunts Cloud. They trade nice rights. Cloud aggressive, backs Woods up.
Cloud's round, this is a wicked fight!
29-28 Cloud

Cloud throwing a combo against hte ropes. Cloud falls off balance in to the ropes. Big right. Cloud throwing a lot and using a ton of pressure, but not landing that much. Cloud more active.

Lol, god it is absurd that I have to put that down, but you are right, I'm sure a random Floyd fan claimed that Collazo got robbed against Hatton without having seen the fight.
I will expand my rulebook as more posts come in. I am actually totally serious about people following this. It annoys me more than anything to hear that "Vernon Forrest got robbed against Ricardo Mayorga in the rematch!"
As much as I would like to agree, since Forrest is my favorite, I have to say "No cabron, he didn't."
I hear ya man, its painful when people cry robbery at the dumbest stuff. I remember when Malignaggi-Ngoudjo happened everyone called it a robbery and claimed that since Ngoudjo wobbled Malignaggi bad a few times in the 7th or whatever that he deserved to win the fight. So in relation to #4 there should be something like:
5. While it can make a difference, one 10-8 round does not automatically negate multiple rounds won 10-9 due to clean, effective boxing.
Cloud looks tired. Woods more agressive to start. Body shot and a combo by Cloud. Nice hook by Cloud! Can Cloud hurt Woods? Hmmm. Dosn't look like it. Woods chases Tavoris back and lands some nice stuff. Woods relaxed but fields a right. Nice, wierd combo from Woods. Cloud land a right inside. BIG right by Clinton. Another. Woods lands a little hook. Slapping right by Woods. Jab and a right uppercut. Woods eats a few body shots. They wrastle on the inside. Woods eats a few shots. Cloud lands a few rights. Woods too inactive.

My favorite fights ever.
Close fight, could have gone eithe way but both really suck defensively but atleast there not defensive nutt jobs like ishe smith who obviously has no fans with the borefest he always puts on.
Good to hear it was a good fight, Kevin can really box but is far too happy to brawl if it comes down to it. He can fight defensively pretty well, I hope he shows that in his next outing.
Excellent post, but could do with some more expanded rules. Lol, if people followed this, imagine how much less spam there would be on these boards!
4. In order to call robbery, you must have seen the fight in its entirety.
I think that is a very vaild one, especially for an internet community.
As annoying as you are White Hope, and as big a disgrace you are to real fighters (even amateur fights as myself) I would actually like to see you win. Nobody ever really wants to see someone lose except for the guy in front of them. So as lame as this whole internet bullshit is, and as little skill you have, all the power to you if you come back from your loss...
We are in the minority of thinking that though.
All the judges thought Hopkins had that shit well in hand. Lederman was seeing shit that my eyes were missing when he gave rounds to Hopkins. I've heard plenty of people on here saying that 9-3 or 8-4 for Hopkins were about right...
I saw Wright win that fight.
Taylor-Wright would be a rematch that the loser would win.
Vargas-Wright would have been as well IMO.
I can't imagine that Baldomir wins a second fight against Zab Judah.
Oh yeah, and Hopkins-Eastman. :rolleyes:
Judah beats Carlos for sure now, imidiate rematch back in 06 Baldomir wins though, or so I think.
I for sure thought Winky beat Bernard, and I thoguht I was the only one who thought that. 8-4 Winky Wright.
Mayweather beats them all...EASILY.
Come on man, don't be so brainless. Its a stupid comment to make, especially from a poster such as yourself. Pavlik gets to Floyd for sure and its possible that he KO's him. If Floyd wins, then that is real history.
Damn Barragan and Reynolds put on a pretty decent show. Both didn't have much of a defense, but they both kept throwing punches.
Kevin is my trainer and employer, but I had to run the gym and couldn't make it to the fight, did he look any good?
Is Cloud breaking Woods down, or is Woods walking Cloud into a trap? Hard to tell.
They miss some big shots to begin round 5 of a great fight. Jab for Woods. Cloud admonished for low blow. Right hand for Woods. Nice light right by Cloud down the middle. They're trading nice short shots. Woods warned for elbows. They punch each other on the break. Cloud way slower this round? Hard to tell. Tavoris' mouth peice comes flying out after a hook. hes not at all hurt though. Cloud stalking. Clinton very calm. Cloud misses a nice right. Nice hook by Woods. Cloud eats a combo on the inside. Woods looks very relaxed in there. I'm impressed.
3-2-1 Cloud
There is this overwhelming feeling that Cloud is walking into a trap. I feel like this may end Marquez/Diaz style. We will see. They start round 4 jabbing. Nice hook smacks Cloud in the face. Woods backs Cloud up with the jab. Teddy and I have the same scorecard. Jab by Cloud. Combo by Woods. Big right hand and some sneak head movement for Woods. Beautiful triple jab by Woods. Cloud lands a huge hook and Woods responds with an equally big right. That triple jab works well for Woods. Double jab by Woods. Triple jab by Cloud. Cloud misses with two rights. Woods misses with a hook. Nice jabs by Cloud. They trade combos. Woods spins Clounds on to the ropes. They trade flurries. Close round.

Tye Fields is calling out Jeff Ford, for a battle for the ages. Jeff Ford is the greatest fighter of all time. He KO'd Tye Fields. He has NO RESPECT for his POWER.
