I think as a radio announcer, he did his job very well. I wouldn't argue agianst that at all. I simply didn't care for him on TV. It's funny, I've seen ESPN lately try telecasting some older fights and lay over the radio broadcast with it. Obviously by what I have said here, that I didn't particularly care for this, as agian, I can SEE what is happening. I do not need a Radio announcer telling me what my eyes are...

PS Greg although I wont bet Vic I WILL bet 100 pushups Artur Abraham wins that tournament and impressively. This guy is a beast~

Wow, Bute stops Andrade in 4. He ran around and grabbed for a bit, but then nailed Andrade with a left to the head as Librado was coming in, and dropped him. He then finished him with a left to the body. I don't care for his style, but at least he sat down on his punches and landed some meaningful knockout blows. The guy can punch but he fights like a startled faun at times. But it sure worked tonight. Tough matchup for anyone because he...

hey rock, thanx but no thanx on the abraham bet. i can't see anyone turning him around. when i think of him lasting against a puncher like miranda with his jaw busted.... tough to pick against him. italian- armenian.... i am polish - irish ... so you can imagine i have developed a thick skin when it comes to ethnic jabs.... you know .... they invented whiskey to keep us from running the world and the wheel barrel to teach us to walk.. ah...

At least these fights are being shown on Versus on a Wednesday night where they belong... Not that anyone seriously cares, but in that car-accident curiousity does anyone feel like there's a chance of an upset on here that will foil their stale showdown? I don't know anything about Ornelas but Green has enough pop, chin & stamina to create some problems for an old RJJ.

[quote=PD99] Floyd can duck, dodge and weave his way from the 1st, 2nd, 3rd or perhaps even 4th punch in any given Pac salvo but rest assured, there will be another on it's way. QUOTE] Thats the part of the fight that interests me. Floyd is great at avoiding a punch, but can he avoid 5 in a row? On the other hand, pac is vulnerable when tossing out those 4-5 punch combinations and if anyone can counter in between those punches, its floyd.

Speaking of Van Damme, Juan, he's just made another Universal Soldier (Universal Soldier: Regeneration). a straight to DVD flick starring Chicago's Andrei Arlovski...
