    He was a weak champion, Cotto beat him coming off a devastating loss and moving up into the division for the first time. And he looks worse off now, i can see quite a few guys in that division beating him at this point

      Arguello-Pryor:
      Arguello took a bad beating in those fights, never quit and fought to the end. Never made up any silly stories to explain away his loss like some other fighters have done

          Danny Williams against Vitali Klitchko, he took an immensley one sided ass whoopin and kept coming

          Vitali Klitchko got my respect himself against Lewis after goin toe to toe and wanting to continue despite his face hanging off

          Joe Frazier in The Thrilla in Manilla, obviously i missed Joe's career but this was the first fight of his i saw and i loved his guts and heart

            Sergio Martinez vs Paul Williams. I honestly though tWilliams would spark him out in 6 or 7 in that 1st fight.

            Cotto vs Mosley. I really though the best of Mosley was behind him yet he still put Cotto through a damn good test.

            Mayorga vs Mosley. I know Mayorga talks a lot of **** but is exciting to watch. Couldn't help for respect him because he gave Mosley a much harder fight then expected. Mosley needed that last 2nd KO to seal the deal.

              Paulie Malignaggi against Miguel Cotto - He showed tremendous heart, I saw him as abit of a punk before I watched that fight. I gained alot of respect for him while watching it and look at him differently now.

              Rosendo Alvarez against Ricardo Lopez - Lopez basically dominated all but 3 opponents. Only Alvarez, Grigsby and Guardia were even competitive with him. Even though the latter two only managed it for a few rounds. Alvarez gave Lopez the two toughest fights of his career, he showed incredible toughness in the 2nd fight where he walked through tons of punches in order to get close and win rounds. He fought for several more years after Lopez and was the Ring Magazine 108lb champ at one point, but he was never really the same after the Lopez fights. He was incredibly tough but also very skilled and smart.

                  Co-sign on that! Although I thought Morales won it...even more unbelievable. That was one of the most ridiculous things I have ever seen.

                      To be honest, I didn't score it last night. 1. I didn't think there was a point going in and 2. I was watching it as a Morales fan rather than an impartial observer. I'll get around to scoring it eventually...so I can ***** about El Terrible getting robbed.
