At one point I was pretty high on this guy (Green); however, he never lived up to the expectations and has become a 'name opponent' or gatekeeper these days

Must have been training with Kirkland and Chavez Jr

One thing I noticed about this, and it is sort of off topic, is that Russ Anber's own brand of gear "Rival" is getting picked up as the preference of more and more fighters. He is going to be making real coin soon.

Another thing I noticed is that it looks like Allan Green is back to staring at his feet again.

To me he has never really been the same since his surgery

What is it with weight at the moment?

You'd think a string of recent bouts like this one, Tapia-Kirland, Chavez-Vera were all on the same card on Boxing Day, having spent Christmas round James Toney's house.

Green looks like he did maybe 7 situps during his entire 'training' camp
