    Messed up he never fought Tszyu.
    This was his first fight at 147. It was right after Gatti and before Zab. Hes grown into the division quite nicely since then. The Tszyu fight would've been awesome. It's too bad they couldn't make it happen.

      That was kind of a nitpicky video.

      The elbows are not legal, but the ref didn't say nothing so keep it going.

        prohibited from kicking, head-butting, or hitting with any part of the arm other than the knuckles of a closed fist (including hitting with the elbow, shoulder or forearm, as well as with open gloves, the wrist, the inside, back or side of the hand). They are prohibited as well from hitting the back, back of the neck or head (called a "rabbit-punch") or the kidneys. They are prohibited from , holding an opponent while punching, or ducking below the belt of their opponent (dropping below the waist of your opponent, no matter the distance between). based on the video it shows money doing all in bold letters.

            If you're not convicted, it's legal right? See OJ, Zimmerman...

            Bottom line is the boxers need to have a game plan for the likes of Floyd, Bhop, Holyfield, Bradley... Can you see anybody getting dirty with a Duran? I'm hoping Matthysse has the same nasty streak. Most boxers today are too clean, Pacquiao included. If you're not going to do something about the nasty then your tough luck.
