    Nobody should take Elie Seckbach serious, he's better off getting run over by a bus.

      Yuri Foreman was a part time fighter, full time rabbi. Salita was a bum with a padded record.

      They are a disgrace to the sport of boxing how such low class fighters can get title opportunities.

        To hell with both of them, but at least Yuri was a titlist. He still might have been more hyped though, because I bought into him frustrating Cotto to a UD. I never have believed in Salita, though I was shocked he was knocked out in the first round.

          Foreman, for sure. Nobody genuinely gave Salita a chance against Khan.

          Elie Seckbach makes me want to puke - his dodgy interviewing style, goofy wide-eyed expression and accent are horrible to watch.

                  Bull****. The manner they brought their religion into the sport? The guys just boxed, it was the media who brought their religion into it.

                  As for being happy Foreman lost, not at all, from what I've seen, he comes across as a genuinly decent guy and I wish him all the best. I didn't pay much attention to Salita though, so I can't say much on him.

                    Foreman is better than Salita and actually had a chance against Cotto. Salita we will never hear of again, Foreman probably.
