I picked Morales to stop Barrera in the rubber match.
Whats your most embarassing boxing pick gone wrong???

Yep, I knew it was over mid-round in the first also. I was thinking, before the fight, that Manny will have prepared this kid for Margarito this time. He'll be in shape, will have worked on what to do when being roughed up inside a little, and will have watched Margarito tapes for weeks to find a way inside without taking fire. And then a few seconds before the bell rang, I saw Kermit's eyes and all I could think of was "Deer caught in the headlights" and actually said to myself "Oh, ****".
The whole thing really pisses me off. The kid has ****loads of potential. He needs a little polish, but his talent, speed and power are so obvious even a fool can see them plainly. Only thing missing is heart, and willpower. Just goes to show that those two intangibles make up the most important parts of a champion fighter. I'd go so far as to say they're about 70% of the total of a true champion.Comment
