      not to take credit from wolaks performance but does anyone that watched the fight think he looked less bouncy, like maybe the surgery or the time off really hindered him?Again I'm not trying to bash him but the Foreman who showed up against Cotto was constantly moving, evading jabs but from what I gathered on Saturday he kept his hands down almost the entire fight and leaned against Pawel alot..using his shoulder to block most of the time. I don't think he's cut out to box anymore, atleast not like he's used to.

        I saw both fights and you are right Foreman was doing less from ring generalship to jabbing. I heard from the fight that Foreman didn't have his long time trainer with him in his corner at the Wolak fight. Also, Wolak's corner used to work for Foreman a long time ago so they knew how he fought basically he was an open book to them. Everything was sort of stacked against Foreman last Saturday night. Still, Wolak fought his game plan regardless of his opponent's situation.

          Its a very simple scenario:
          Foreman rushed back too soon from his ACL reconstruction, thats why he was weak and not himself.

          That a crazy move: he just learned to walk again in July.
          It was way too soon

          he should have taken at least a year off

            no ****tttt... this guy is a fraud... hes a brawler and was facing someone with baby power and a guy that just had reconstructive knee surgery who is probably shot... Chavez, although sucks, would kill this guy... enjoy the win and cong****... but dont get it twisted youre not an elite fighter... people talk about chavez jr dodging this joke, this fool was offered a fight vs vanes twice and twice he turned it down

                  man, this card was the first time i have seen this guy fight. i must have been hiding under a rock or something - this guy is fantastic! he's so ferocious and NEVER let yuri breathe. this guy has a lot of potential. good interview too.

                    Wolak seems like a cool, humble guy.
