    Is there Anything Worse in Boxing?

    Ofcourse there are worse things but nothing makes me madder then someone pulling out of a fight right when its supposed to happened, wether its for a injury or other reasons.

    I was really looking forward to seeing the Mighty Mike-Vivian Harris fight. That fight was one of those under the radar thriller type fights. I think it wouldve been a great fight and I was in the minority in picking Harris.

    I hated it when Tszyu use to pull out against Mitchell all the time right before the fight, Castillo getting hurt before the 2nd Chico fight, and now overweight for the 3rd fight.

    James Toney getting hurt right before fights and so on. It makes you mad because boxing is the only sport where guys only do things a couple of times a year anyway. You have to wait atleast 4 months for every fight now, and then when someone gets hurt a week before the fight then it makes you mad.

    I feel bad for Harris because he seemingly cant catch a break with promoters & big fights. He tried so hard to get a big fight and I think it caused him to get burnt out in the process. He also was very stressed about his managment and I think all that led to his loss against Mouse. Now he has a big fight against Mighty Mike to prove how great he is and I think that we all really wanted to see and this happends. Now he's back at square one again and probally wont get a big fight anytime soon. I would love to see him fight Chico.

    I hate that too.
    But the worse move of all has to be the move Vitology did.
    He pulled out of the fight and then retired because he was so terrified of Hasim Rahman.

            Who have they said? I havent heard any names yet. Most of the times you dont get anything good because its too late in the game to bring in a good replacment after you prepared for Mighty Mike all this time. Its kind of dangerous and you could easily lose like that so most promoters dont take that risk. On the other hand Harris is a tough guy and Im sure he wouldnt mind a great replacment

                All I gotta say is Castillo and Vitali

                They've both given me more than enough reasons to never watch them fight again

                  Mighy Mike totally punked out too.
                  Do you think he was legitimatley afraid, or knew he was too unprepared for Harris?
