    Achievements Overshadowed By Excuses

    By Jake Donovan - It's a practice that will never go away, but one that has become an ugly recurring trend all through March. A loss is no longer a loss, instead grounds for a fighter or his camp to air out a list of reasons why the other guy's hand was raised by night's end.

    Two bouts on this weekend's schedule – Joel Casamayor-Michael Katsidis and Gavin Rees-Andreas Kotelnik – all but have controversy written all over them. Rare is the occasion when a Casamayor fight that goes the distance doesn't result in major dispute over the final scorecards. The next win Kotelnik manages on the road will be his first, which should make for plenty of anxious moments this weekend in Wales, Rees' home country. [details]

    This whole article is about trying to make guys that thought they won and gave their thought to the public about it, seem like they are doing sotheing bad. Dont try to talk bad about a great fighter like marquez for speaking out his thoughts that he won, hell the majority of the fans, whose opinions matter the most, saw it the same way marquez and his camp saw it. Some had him 1 point ahead some had him 2 points ahead. However my point is dont try to make them( the Marquez bros,Diaz) look like they are crying about the out come of the fight and make guys like Maskaev or Macarenneli seem like they did the right thing by not complaining like Marquez. ****, they got knocked the f@#& out!!! Im pretty sure that if Maskaev would have lost a fight by one point that he thought was technically wininng, you would have definately heard something form him.
