      I thought it was a very entertaining fight. Jirov looked very

      impressive in the early rounds to round 7, peppering Moorer's

      face with the jab and hitting him with tough body shots. After

      Jirov got cut he stopped using the jab and Moorer came to life.

      When Moorer finally got on the offensive in the 8 and 9th rounds

      he looked very sharp and punches found a home on Jirov's jaw!

      I was impressed with Moorer's defense and movement in the early

      rounds but I was unimpressed with his lack of offense. Overall,

      a very entertaining fight with two sort-of big name fighters.

      The only thing I thought was bad about the broadcast is Tom

      Arnold's ******ity. Why on earth would they show him scoring a

      boxing match when he doesn't know the first thing about boxing.

        finally! I was waiting to see if anyone else had a problem with Arnolds 'techniques'. He apparently tries to score fights the way theyre "supposed" to be scored by the judges (that what he says anyway) and he did the same thing during the Toney-Booker fight. I understand what he's getting at, just dont necessairly agree with him, and he's yet to say anything that made me think he knows much about the sport! I also thought his comment "I'm going with the white guy" was a bit crude, and if it had been anyone else at all that had said that alot of hell would have been raised.

          That was a pretty ******ed comment especially since he was sitting next to 3 big African-American guys(Toney,Byrd,Sally)What a effing buffon Arnold is! I think the only reason why they have the guys from BDSSP is that they attract their viewers to watch the boxing broadcasts. Other than that I would much rather see Sean O'Grady and his partner(dont know his name) do the whole fight and maybe also Max Kellerman.

            I agree...I've never been a fan of Tom Arnold anyway, and having to sit for 35-40 min's and listen to the opinions of someone that knows less about the sport than I do is not my idea of "good boxing coverage" The other guy I think is Barry Tompkins (or something like that) and they may not be as high class as HBO and Sho..but I've always liked them just fine. Having Grady (and ex-champ) commentate compared to Arnold (an ex-actor..possibly an ex-jock??), I'd say Grady is more knowledgabe of the sport and the way it all works, etc.. so I prefer him anyday!

              sorry dude your right i was tired whe i read it. jirov wanted to keep the pressure on even though his hands were tired. it was definately not a good idea.

                thats very close to the way i saw it. tom arnold should stick to movies and stay away from boxing. at least i can choose not to see a movie but i'll be darned if i'll miss the fight!
