    I've been gone for a while...

    but I'm BACK!

    I just moved, so we didn't have internet hooked up for a while, so I've missed pretty much everything that has happened this month. I know what has happened in the actual fights, but with fights that have been discussed, finalized, etc. I'm in the dark.

    Anyone want to fill me in?

    While you were gone, 50% of all the boxers in the world died.

      I'm still bummed about Forrest's death...

          Vitali vs Arreola is a done deal.

          There is a six man supermiddleweight tournament between Froch, Kessler, Ward, Taylor, Abraham and your boy Dirrell.

          Dirrell is fighting Froch, Sorry if you already know.

          Pavlik vs Williams should be a done deal soon.

          Tim Bradley is fighting Nate Campbell this weekend.

          Cotto - Pacquiao is a done deal.

          Haye is fighting Valuev.

          Again sorry if you know all this news.

            Hmm, I guess Warp did a pretty good job filling me in on all of this... I thought there would be more.

            No, thank you very much Precision, you gave a pretty thorough rundown on what's been happening.

            God I'm ecstatic that Dirrell got Froch first... I can't think of an easier step up in class... Dirrell will be an undefeated champion by beating another undefeated champion easily.

            I am worried if and when he has to face Kessler, Ward and Abraham though... Taylor shouldn't be too tough of a fight.

            Kessler has the experience and the jab that could take Dirrell's athleticism out of the game. Ward has the slick style that could give Dirrell major problems. Abraham is a huge puncher, and Dirrell has absorbed a clean blow here and there, plus his chin is kind of in question from some that I've talked to.

            Either way, I'm super excited about this tournament.

              Nice to have you back, D.

              starjammer made a really good Forrest tribute ; you should look it up.

                  I will...

                  You pretty ecstatic by the news that Hopkins wants the winner of Dawson-Johnson 2, which will so clearly be for The Ring belt?

                  I know I am. Hopkins is going to have another ridiculously impressive win on his resume, especially if Dawson wins.
