    Ortiz was untested, had a lot of high hopes and eyes watching, I don't know any yuri foreman fans lol, or anybody expecting him to be something great.

        I wonder why Tunney is complaining about Yuri

        Maybe just maybe it has something to do with Yuri being ***ish

        Typical Tunney

        Ill make it short and sweet. The Zonists control boxing and would never allow Yuri to be ridiculed

          Why didnt you make this thread about Mayorga?

          He quit on his feet literally telling the ref to come stop it, yet you jump on the *** when his corner stopped it

            Be hoest you didnt see the fight did you. Stop make your assumptions off what somebody told you because you'll just feel like an idiot when you do see the fight. When in history has a TKO been considered a horrible performance?


            Foreman quit but no expected him to be much anyway. The Zibokowski fight was more important to people than that.

              Yea that punch he landed on Cotto that broke his hand was brutal.

              You a skinhead Tunney?

                I'm not criticizing Foreman myself. He was getting beaten up and had no answer to Wolak's relentless pressure.

                I just wonder why Max Kellerman was so hard on Victor Ortiz, while the Showtime commentators (especially Bernstein and Albert) were full of praise for Yuri Foreman. Ortiz has had a lot more adversity to overcome in his life than most of us.

                  Why didn't the people who criticized Devon Alexander get called skinheads?

                  Was Max Kellerman a skinhead for being so hard on the Hispanic boxer, Victor Ortiz?

                    And people were critical of Devon Alexander for quitting against Bradley.

                    Both those fighters were visibly marked and had serious cuts.

                    Yuri Foreman was being hit, but he wasn't cut or injured...

                    Why hasn't he been criticized for quitting on his stool?
                    Its because there is ZERO hype and very low expectations for Yuri. Nobody made him out to be a world beater.

                      Winner. HBO is not selling the farm to bet on Yuri as a future superstar. He is what he is, and Max and Co. knows it.
