      Katsidis trainer got him knocked out against Casamayor.

      He told Katsidis to come out like a madman and he walked right intoa huge counter punch.

      Katsidis had come back from 2 first round knockdowns to take control of the fight and was doing damn well fighting the way he wanted to fight. His trainer jumped up his ass in the corner demanding he take Casamayor out and a minute later the fight was over.

        Because he had the fight in the bag.. He got robbed.

          I remember Steward telling Vivian Harris to throw a short left hook, and when Vivian Harris threw it, he got countered by Maussa and KO.

            After round 1 of Wright-Mosley 2:

            Joe Goosen: "That was perfect. That was so perfect! Let's not change a thing."

            Consequently, he lost the first round, didn't change a thing, and lost the fight.

              The whole fight all he told Kelly was to throw or double the jab....but Pav could never find him to throw it.

              Great call - that was the worst advice ever, that is all Jack said every damn round - meanwhile BHop is schooling Pavlik all over the place.

                Even if you felt DLH did get robbed that’s no excuse for a champion to act especially in the championship rounds…

                      It's not terrible advice, but consider it was always in Ray Torres's ridiculous voice, it made me laugh that every single Mexican fighter would get told to "THROW the LEFT HOOK to the BODY!" every single round.

                      I did think that Jose Morales was really being the general in the corner when he instructed the cutman to "Put some water on his balls" in reference to his son.
