    Fighters looking past their opponent.

    Sometimes, a fighter doesn't take their opponent as seriously as they should, either because they think they'll win easily, or they're thinking about a future fight with another opponent for a huge payday.

    When has this happened? I think Tyson-Douglas is a great example. Tyson, by his own admission, barely trained for the fight.

      Not the case with JRock. He said he was taking it seriously.

      Even though he was too willing to engage. He should known he was too brittle for that.

            When Josesito broke Ortiz' jizaw, I was happy. I really enjoy watching Victor get the chit whipped outta him.
            I am a fan of watching him get smashed.

            Jhonny, my Chihuahua is named after Jhonny Gonzalez.
