      I'm glad that some fighters still have heart unlike Cintron.

        Round of the Year candidate. Encompasses so much of what is great about boxing. The resilency, sheer guts. I was baked as **** and it was amazing to watch.

          Ionno, Reggie scoring back to back 3's against The Knicks was pretty dramatic, but I mostly agree.

            Foreman showed a lot of heart to keep going in that round, he earned my respect.

              was reggies face busted up? was his knee busted up? was he faced with a man in front of him whos intentions were to inflict as much physical pain as possible on you (whos highly trained at doing that too). was reggie tired and spent beyond his wildest dreams? was reggie's character as a MAN being tested?

              the answer to all the above is NO. he was sitting down drinking gatorade on a ****ing bench half the game..

              no comparison whatsoever

                I agree. I want to see the round again. When I was watching it live I thought it might be a contender for round of the year, I doubt Ill have the same feeling watching it again.

                  Hell yeah! I mean I love basketball but it can't compare to how amazing boxing is. Boxing shows us what men are really made out of. In basketball, you can have a bad game, miss shots, and still have your team win. But in boxing its all up to YOU, the guy in the ring.

                  Boxing is a badass sport.
