No love for young Danny Garcia???

Its nice to see Castillo is enjoying himself after he just lost a couple thousand dollars for his family and embarassed himself once again. Start looking for a job you got a family to care for you, your best days are well behind you.

Lol right?? They follow paul williams around too......

the 3rd guy is Al Haymon. Mayweather's manager. Also manages Garcia, Broner, Berto, Andrade and others. The first guy is his son

I had morales ahead by 3 rounds

Absurd wtf were judges watching ? Since when are blocked punches counted as real punches ?

Garcia did good last night.The emotion was written all over his face.In boxing your always going to have stepping stones,regardless of name.

Garcia and Kirkland may have been the victors last night. But neither of them will go far in their divisions imo.
Bradley, Peterson, Khan, and Matthysse all beat Garcia.
Cotto, Canelo, Lara, Molina, and Trout all beat Kirkland.

I would agree with that with the exception of Canelo. Kirkland and Canelo are about on the same level, so that may be a pretty close fight. You could stick Ishida on that list because he would OK Kirkland again. You can also add Paul Williams and probably Margarito to it also.

Garcia vs Morales was actually a good fight on the surface, but the whole thing just ended being depressing because the Morales we know just wasn't there anymore.

Morales/Garcia was a nice clean fight though. Kirklands strong but wont get too much further on strength only, not with that glass jaw, even Molina had em worried in the 1st round. Alvarez knocks em out Ishida style.

Can anyone tell me who the 1st and 3rd guys along are in the 3rd photo down? They're always cheerleading at Mayweather fights and they annoy the heck out of me.

That is not al haymon, that is sam watson n those are his twins, they do haymons dirty work they also manage boxers, they were at the fights since the first fight in realiant kept walking up n down all night they stay busy

Nah, that ain't Al Haymon. This is Al Haymon: http://www.nytimes.com/2011/12/18/sp...game.html?_r=1

Thanks for sharing that article. I'm sure the ny times wrote it without Haymon's consent. I suspect Haymon's lack of media exposure is because he either lives an alternative lifestyle (eg. ****sexual) OR he is involved in white collar criminal activity (eg. cheating the IRS). NOBODY with that type of success puts all that effort to be a ghost unless he's hiding something.

Shelly Finkel is very low-key and he's in the music business and boxing management. Shelly still does interviews and poses for pictures without seeking it. He's not hiding like Al Haymon.
