I hope nobody forgot about the other brooklyn bred welterweight champ my boy Louie Collazo wba champhttp://www.wbaonline.com/wchampionships/images/collazosmall.jpghe's supposed to be fighting Oktay Urkal it was re-scheduled for a change of venue
Got to root for my boy John on this one he has more expierence then ANdre which could tip the scales in his favor even with some of his flaws plus were in the same camp so I gotta back him :)
I neer saw Sugar Ray at welter but I have a collection of probably his best fights at middleweight and the guy is great I'm not gonna go into all that GOAT crapbut he was a great boxer.
How do you go about putting a pic right here in the text box like some of you do?
If you click the picture of the yellow landscape next to the globe it brings up a bar and you just add the url of the picture you want to add or just type webb address here

I wont express my views on how the fight went but what I found funny was how lampley had the nerve to say Hopkins was being more productive in the rounds but Taylor was throwing the "showier" punches?first off showier is not a word and I never knew throwing a punch w that looked good was more effective then throwing and landing a punch
2006 could have a very good line-up of fights if all goes well 2006 could rival or even surpass 2005 with a sharp line-up of fights.A few on my wishlist
1.Zab vs Floyd
2.Calzaghe vs Lacy
3.Winky vs (Taylor/Hopkins)
4.Pac vs Morales
5.Corrales vs Castillo
6.Margarito vs Cotto (toss-up)
7.My greatest wish some actual heaveyweight contender and some good fights in the heaveyweight division hopefully "Lights out" can provide
It's clear that quite a few peope on this board has some racial issues they want to deal with.Put it like this don't just blame blacks or even black fighters blame the jorunalist,the sports writers,the promoters, blame everyone it's everybodys fault that white fighters are down played and yada yada yada you want to cry?All the great fighters no matter what race are respected period.
Thats funny, I always made fun of this..... how do you get hit so hard you almost break your leg? haha.....
He wqas refuring to the way etienne fell if you watch his right leg it gets caught up under him while hes falling
They like to count him out because of the color of his skin.
Nobody is ready for people to say the best heavyweight is a white guy. I promise you. This has more to do with race than anything else.Why do you say so there have been many great caucasian champions
