Cintron-Margarito
This is pretty much what I figured what it would be... Cintron being the slightly more technically skilled boxer... but that not mattering because of the chin difference. You can hit Margarito with a 2x4 and it doesnt seem to make a difference, however every punch landed on Cintron seemed to definitely effect him. I think that was ultimately the reason of the outcome.
Woods-Tarver
Like I said before, it all depends on the Tarver that shows up... The Tarver that fought Roy whoops Woods... The Tarver that fought Hopkins, gets whooped... Fortunately for Tarver, the better of the two showed up tonight... This was the night of the 39 year olds... Good fight for tarver.
Cotto Gomez
I would say, Cotto did exactly what I thought he would do, but that Gomez did not... I thought Gomez was better than he showed tonight... but apparently not... Cotto has continued to impress, regardless of competition... his toughest fight to date is yet to come in July IMO... Goodluck to Cotto
Dawson-Johnson
I wont talk to much about controversy of outcome, but it was a great fight. Dawson showed a lot of heart, and Glen impressed with not letting age become a factor in how he fights.
With that said, I thought Glen deserved the nod, and don't ever talk about Chad Dawson having questionably the same skill that Prime Roy Jones Jr. Had... Ive heard that way to much, after this fight... don't ever mention it again... If someone keeps hitting you with a jab to the left side of your face... guess what you should do? HOLD YOUR RIGHT HAND UP... if your the taller longer reach fighter, guess what you should do? BOX and dont get ****** into a toe to toe battle... If your 25 years old and the undefeated champion of the world, guess what?! you should NOT be showing signs of fatigue in the 3rd to 4th rounds, against someone nearly 40... this is basic ****.
Lucky for Chad hes only 25 with plenty of time to learn from his experience... for Glen, hope he gets the rematch.
Nonetheless, Boxing has entertained me, for yet another Saturday.
