    Mieguel's never been afraid of a little blood, but that thing was sick and a sick cut like that always effects a fighter's mentality.

    He just fought a more tactical fight because of it.

    And I don't blame him.

    Only a tard would say he should've went all out with a ***** of a gash like that one.
    That cut Cotto got was similar to the cut Wright got against Hopkins.

    I like the way Cotto adjusted, Watching the fight i got the feeling Cotto was out to prove he still had balls, Most fighters would of pulled out with a cut like that.

      Well that is just straight blasphemous.

      I see you've got Dirrell over Froch too. I've got faith in Andre
      Froch and Taylor are the worst in the tournament.

      I think Kessler is the best.

      Dirrell and Ward are probably on the second tier.

      I'm not really sure where to place Abraham, I would think in between 04 Olympians and Froch-Taylor, but... idk, he could really be a wildcard with his sick power.

        Yeah i agree with that. If Taylor had better stamina, i would rate him above all but Kessler because of his experience,etc.

          I'm still working on it, son.

          I got Matt up in there ; and I'm going to get you and Marti up in there as well.

          It just takes time.

          It's not right if I just nominate dudes left and right ; I've only made one nomination thus far, and that was Matt.

          Until then, keep carving out your rep as an intelligent fan in here who knows his **** like you always do. The right people will notice eventually.

            It was.

            He could've easily pulled out and just won it on points because of the early lead, but he dug deep and fought through it.

            I don't know how anybody ****s on him for doing so.

            Fighters are damned if they do and damned if they don't sometimes because most fans act like possessive girlfriends.

              I know... it's fine dude.

              I can't believe you picked a fellow Hopkins fan over your bestie on here Marti... for shame Big Mike.

                Yeah man it's easy to forget Abraham is in the tournament sometimes...I can't even begin to imagine what drama he's gonna bring.

                Taylor's let me down...but I'm not gonna give up on him. I'm gonna continue to support him right to the end.

                But if I had to pick who I think have the best chances of winning, I'd go with Kessler and Dirrell

                  I'm surprised they even let Matt in.

                  They normally don't take well to newcomers to the sport ; no matter how intelligent and knowledgeable they seem to be.

                  I'll get you guys both in if it kills me.

                  You, Marti, and Matt are my 3 closest pals on here alongside Hurricane.

                  And 2 of those 4 are already card carrying members.

                    agreed.

                    There are some fans you can never please.
