    I have to say, i am more impressed than anything that he's able to do as well as he did last saturday given all the stuff i've heard he's dealt with outside the ring..

      Who gives a **** when he's been fighting all the tomato cans making up the 168 division? Let him fight some real competition if they ever show up! He'll never be the best until he fights legends, so he better move up to Lt heavy if he wants any kind of serious rep. 168 is like cruisers...it's a dead division!

        Anybody who knows boxing knows that the current crusierweight division is anything but dead...it is actually pretty ****ing competitive...but you wouldnt know that.

        Joe needs to fight legends huh...is Antonio Tarver a legend? ****...are you overstating things again here?

          I always thought he was good, but felt as if he never had the real test to prove he was beyond just good.
          He had that test this weekend, & he ****in' ran with it. That was an amazing performance. Looked like two fighters separated by several levels.
          I am a believer now, & I'd be a real ****head if I weren't.

          How fighters conduct themselves outside the ring, has never mattered much to me. But, I couldn't have been more impressed with the way both fighters handled themselves after the fight.
          True class acts.

            raesaad I'm surprised you have not changed your sig. Do you still believe Lacy will be p4p #1 or are you keeping it just to show him respect for Sat.'s courageous effort

              Tarver beat Roy 3 times when he was supposed to be the P4P best! Tarver is on his way to being a legend fool! And cruisers ARE dead, name me any who aren't bums!

                The real **** Cheney doesnt ask for facts.

                It is time for an undressing son...

                ****Cheney says: Tarver beat Roy 3 times when Roy was the p4p king.

                Reality is: Tarver lost the first fight not because he was cheated but because he got extremely lazy in the middle and late rounds, plus the third time they fought Roy was on no ones p4p radar let alone number 1-WRONg ****.

                So if Tarver is on his way to becoming a legend and you want Joe to fight a legend the question still remains...which legend do you want Joe to challenge? Legends dont grow on trees dip****.

                You want some crusienrweight names huh?

                Ever heard of Steve Cunnigham? How about Guerillmo Jones? What about O'neill Bell? Big Truck Braithwaite? Jean Marc Mormeck? Kelvin Davis?

                **** if you have been following the cruiserwegith division which judging by your rhetoric you havent you would know that it is as competitive and as exciting collectively as it has been since the days of the Holyfield dynasty.

                ****, if you dont know **** the best move is to not say ****-your as dumb as they come and I love it, do you?

                    People should not be surprised that Joe is still being criticized. Joe has a long history that is downright stale. With this win, Joe has opened a door. That is ALL. He still has to WALK through it. If he goes on to do what he did before the Lacy fight (fighting unknown/unproven fighters at home) then his win means little. If he walsk through the door of oppurtunity and uses this fight as a launching pad to get bouts with guys like Kessler, Tarver, Woods, and Adamek, then we can really be impressed.

                    It is not a crime to admit that Lacy was not as good as people thought. That's not demeaning Joe, it's just stating a fact. And along with that, we also state the fact that Joe did very well and won in such a fashion that he demands attention.

                      I wholeheartedly agree with this...

                      Its opened the door, now its up to him whether he walks through it.
