serious?
perhaps it's the gut reaction for a close fight, but this is the HW division, boys. these aren't dudes the size of your GF (nishi and donaire, for example,)
yall been conditioned with the last few years of hbo and showitme not covering the HW, and the guys in the HW division not being aggressors.
when these guys connect with big punches the fight starts to end.
4-8 rounds is when this one will end. no later.
that's right

Originally posted by joe strong View Posti agree arreola took a knee but mitchell showed excellent ring intelligence when he was hurt. he had the ring smarts to hold on & not let chazz get off any clean punches until he cleared his head. chazz has very good power but he is a C+ heavyweight at best. i think it was a good lesson learned for mitchell. after he obliterated timur ibragimov(C+ HW) he may have got a little complacent & thought he could walk through any HW's punch but he found out quickly that's not the case. he won't make the same mistake vs banks or arreola.
Mitchell grabbed twice, and he was still getting hit, he was not covering up well, and he didn't move his head and upper body like he should have
when he went back to his corner, he was still wobly

Originally posted by Big Dunn View PostNO, I know who doesn't watch and its alot of north americans. I think its a problem when a large portion of the western hemisphere doesn't know or care about the HWT champion of the world .
I mean the HWT champion is virtually unknown in North America and when he fights very few people in North America watch.
I know this is a sore subject with you but I think we can only discuss this if you are willing to be honest about the current HWT division.

you're comparing mitchell and arreola to wlad - haye?
the possiblity that the wlad and haye fight would be low contact was there. the expectation was for haye to get hit more with the jab and not be strong enough to take it, but he was able to take away. they weren't expected to go to war by anybody who knows boxing
the only thing the two fights have in common are knockout power from all four fighters.

And no, I didn't vote for a decision, as I didn't vote at all in fact. If I had voted, I would have picked Arreola by KO.

i don't wanna say it but arreola would be the favorite (to win by tko). but i'm a big fan of mitchell, met him earlier this year, so i'd be rooting for him on this one. this HW matchup def isn't going the distance regardless of who you're rooting for.
