      You know this is funny because its exaclty what I was expecting after Lacy lost. So I guess Manfredo is better than Lacy now because they both beat the **** out of Pemberton and Lacy lost? Just rediculous how people do this after a loss. If Lacy comes back with the same performance against a lesser fighter then ok I can except it, but untill then its nonsense.

        I hate to bump this, but what an incredibly ****** thread. Honestly, you have to be a ****ing ****** to think that Manfredo is BETTER than Lacy.

        Granted, I'm a Manfredo fan, and think he can and will be a good fighter later in his career, but he's still young, and very unproven. Not to mention he lost to ****ing Sergio Mora once (got robbed the second time, I had that **** 7-1, how anyone could have Mora winning is just beyond me). Mora ****ing SUCKS. If you want to talk about a bad fighter, there's a guy to talk about. Thinks he's ****ing Roy Jones Jr. in there clowning guys, and ****. He has no power, isn't that fast, and can't make up his mind about being orthodox or southpaw. What the ****?

          Yeah, Mora definitely is a ****head. Looks like a damn welterweight too and he fights at Middleweight & isn't as fast as he seems to think. Supposedly in the Contender Ishe Smith was a round away from knocking him out (but they wouldn't show it).

            That wouldn't surprise me at all. Ishe is a far more talented fighter than Mora was, and Mora got lucky to win that fight. The way they showed those really pissed me off, too. I would have much rather seen an actual fight than that gay **** they showed. I guess they had to make boring fights exciting somehow, right?

              Well, a boring fight would do nothing for their ratings, I don't really fault them. I just hate Mora with a passion. On the show (before the fights) he seemed like a genuinely humble, nice guy then he gets on the show and clowns like a jackass. Hell, anyone can clown, I could do it all the time but I don't see him landing huge punches when he clowns or anything of that nature.

                That's because he can't punch. He thinks he's hotstuff, but he's actually ice-cold. Dude sucks, and when he faces good competition when the judges aren't biased for him, everyone will see how bad he is. He was so thoroughly dominated by Manfredo in the second fight, too. Seven rounds to one, and I was looking for a round to give to Mora.

                  I don't know...maybe it's a bit different watching it on TV, maybe the judges have better views of what actually landed. Take for instance the Mosley-Vargas fight...Lederman was totally sucking Vargas' **** and the judges seemed to only have Sugar ahead by a round but I had it 6'3 (maybe there's a little bias as he's my fav fighter).

                    You get a far better view on TV, almost all would attest to that, too. I can't speak from personal experience, but generally speaking, the above the ring view is a better place to view it from, because you can see the blows land more clearly, whereas sitting ringside you have a more difficult time seeing certain blows due to the angle they're on. However, on the TV, you see them all due to camera cuts.
