      only wlad has fought him? i thought they both did? got so used to them fighting the same guys......

      i didn't even know monte had a prime.

      monte's on a 3 fight win streak won all 3 with early ko's.

      if haye is hype he'll prove it. this fight is not for a belt , this fight is not built up a superfight.

      just look at it as a tuneup for haye. monte's not bad for a tuneup.

        Cliff Couser is cahrazy.

        He's a crazy cat. Watch his fight with Malcom Tann for proof.
        He got a screw loose.
        he's mike tyson's half brother isn't he?

          The first bridges were made by nature — as simple as a log fallen across a stream. The first bridges made by humans were probably spans of wooden logs or planks and eventually stones, using a simple support and crossbeam arrangement. Most of these early bridges could not support heavy weights or withstand strong currents. It was these inadequacies which led to the development of better bridges.
          Epic literature of India provides mythological accounts of bridges constructed from India to Lanka by the army of Rama. [2][3] The Arthashastra of Kautilya mentions the construction of dams and bridges.[4] A Mauryan bridge near Girnar was surveyed by James Princep.[5] The bridge was swept away during a flood, and later repaired by Puspagupta, the chief architect of emperor Chandragupta I.[5] The bridge also fell under the care of the Yavana Tushaspa, and the Satrap Rudra Daman.[5] The use of stronger bridges using plaited bamboo and iron chain was visible in India by about the 4th century.[6] A number of bridges, both for military and commercial purposes, were constructed by the Mughal administration in India.[7]
          The greatest bridge builders of antiquity were the ancient Romans.[8] The Romans built arch bridges and aqueducts that could stand in conditions that would damage or destroy earlier designs. Some of them still stand today.[9] An example is the Alcántara Bridge, built over the river Tagus, in Spain. The Romans also used cement, which reduced the variation of strength found in natural stone.[10] One type of cement, called pozzolana, consisted of water, lime, sand, and volcanic rock. Brick and mortar bridges were built after the Roman era, as the technology for cement was lost then later rediscovered.
          Although large Chinese bridges of wooden construction existed at the time of the Warring States, the oldest surviving stone bridge in China is the Zhaozhou Bridge, built from 595 to 605 AD during the Sui Dynasty. This bridge is also historically significant as it is the world's oldest open-spandrel stone segmental arch bridge. European segmental arch bridges date back to at least the Alconétar Bridge (approximately 2nd century AD), while the enormous Roman era Trajan's Bridge (105 AD) featured open-spandrel segmental arches in wooden construction.
          Rope bridges, a simple type of suspension bridge, were used by the Inca civilization in the Andes mountains of South America, just prior to European colonization in the 1500s.
          During the 18th century there were many innovations in the design of timber bridges by Hans Ulrich, Johannes Grubenmann, and others. The first book on bridge engineering was written by Hubert Gautier in 1716. A major breakthrough in bridge technology came with the erection of the The Iron Bridge in Coalbrookdale, England in 1787. It used cast iron for the first time as arches to cross the river Severn.
          With the Industrial Revolution in the 19th century, truss systems of wrought iron were developed for larger bridges, but iron did not have the tensile strength to support large loads. With the advent of steel, which has a high tensile strength, much larger bridges were built, many using the ideas of Gustave Eiffel.

              Rahman >>>>>>>>>> Barrett
              sorry but i disagree, i think barrett would annihilate rahman, at least barrett has heart, and a LITTLE skill should he choose to use it.

                Um, Rahman beat Barrett pretty easily.
                I know. I was there.
                Please don't ask for a Rahman-Barrett 2. I am begging you.

                    Wasn't there a story to the Couser fight.

                    Something like one of Barrett's friends or family got murdered or something just before the fight.

                    Or did i imagine that?, i'm sure i heard that one way or the other Barrett had mental problems going into the fight.

                      You know I'm just joking around, Wlad Owns will do anything to discredit Haye
