The card was good
As The Great1 said Urango has the Tyson look about him, Eason was doing good landing the upercut when his corner told him to, then hot got caught good on his 3rd knock down, he protested his previous 2 knockdowns, not for sure why.
Big Time believe it or not was staggered by pannel at one point, pannel tried to make it interesting but for the most part seemed to try to rush him and tackle him or something.
Rothman, WTF? He was punishing bell with the jab, every time he landed it bell's head was going back. Sean O'grady mentioned that Rothman's eyes were messed up during the fight and someone was doing it to him, bell was landin alot of uper cuts in close but they didnt seem to have the zip on them. Then the frwaking 11th round. It was TheGreat1's turn to get up and scram this time, Rothman fell first on his arm, you could see his Right glove between his legs as he was lying on the canvass. Just an awesom pull it back from the brink combo by bell at the end. I didnt agree much with the judges cards, but Bell made it not matter.
Mercer, I still love watching him box, but this will sound silly, his age probably hurts him because he is a little heavyweight. Compaired to some of these monsters, Ray at 237 seems small. He still had the zip though, the Jab and the right hand were landing, and when Briggs would tee off, Ray would just talk back to him. The ending totaly ******, not just because Briggs had Ray over the ropes with his left around his neck and he landed 3 shots to teh side of head, but it didn't look to me like the shot was enough to put Ray out. Ray wants a rematch, briggs says ok, but I doubt it. I still will watch Ray box, maybe he gets the winner of a fifth fight between Butter Bean and Kenny Craven.
Briggs did look good, and The Great 1 said at 33 he still has a chance at making some noise in the division. He looked in great shape, and he looked like he was having fun boxing, throwing some foot feints and taking it to Ray early. And weather its BS or not, I liked the way he spoke and handled himself at the end of the fight.
All in all awesome, the PPV could have been less but thats the price to pay to be a boxing fan.Comment

Eason was destroyed, frankly. Three knockdowns. The last one hurt just to watch the replay...Originally posted by sisforshaqHow bad was Eason Ko'd?

glad it was worth your money.Originally posted by TheGreat1I ordered the Mercer/briggs PPV, and after two fights i'm happy, the first fight was reaaly good, this little guy built and fights like Tyson KO'd Andre Eason, Then McCline KO'd his guy in 3 rounds in a good fight, so far a pretty good card.
I think we all expected it to suck badly.

I agree was not real excited about it but it turned out to be a pretty good card due to all the KOs mostly but nonetheless it was o.k and that Little Guy built like Tyson ,Juan Urango looks to be a pretty bad ass mother****er if he can sharpen his skillz.Originally posted by TheGreat1I ordered the Mercer/briggs PPV, and after two fights i'm happy, the first fight was reaaly good, this little guy built and fights like Tyson KO'd Andre Eason, Then McCline KO'd his guy in 3 rounds in a good fight, so far a pretty good card.Comment
