:lol: why?

unless audley was in on it too its upto the fighter to decide when he wants to finish the fight...

and he said he would finish him in 3 rounds.. nothing wrong with that

not like he has to make more money from the fight already made 5million

Because he said he told friends and family to bet big money on him winning it in the 3rd round. That is not right. You can't bet and compete in any other sport. Why should boxing be different?

Fraudley does it again, what a joke.

Hope Haye can get a fight agreed with one of the brothers, there is no other fight to make.

Would love to see Manny v Floyd, first superfight in a long while that would be!

So, Mayweather vs Pacquio. I've been off work ill the last two days and because I've been under weather have been unable to do anything constructive so I've been catching up on some boxing stuff watching a popular online video sharing site etc. Curious about the allegations Pacquiao is using performance enhancing drugs, I've done some digging and found out that it's not only the Mayweather camp who are suspicious of Pacquiao; but Cintron, Malignaggi, Cotto, De La Hoya and now Hatton have raised their concerns. Malignaggi in particular has some interesting points regarding his claims on some online interviews. There's also been Teddy Atlas (former Tyson & Moorer cornerman) and Tim Smith of the New York Daily News referring to emails sent to the Mayweather camp from the Pacquiao camp about what would happen if Pacquiao failed the test. Regardless of the inconsistent reasons spouted by the Paquiao camp about why he won't agree to random drug testing, the most authoritive and damning interview I found was by the CE of USA Doping Agency, Travis Tygart's who was involved in the negotiations:- read for yourself here:- http://www.mlive.com/mayweather/index.ssf/2010/01/usadas_travis_tygart_current_d.html Another worrying interview with the guy involved in the BALCO scandal, Victor Conte and it leads me to the conclusion that random drug testing is the only way to rid boxing of cheats:- http://www.doghouseboxing.com/DHB/Kim122509.htm#

after the haye v harrison fight.. some proper boxing this weekend!!

froch v abraham... fancy froch in this, a fan of both but think abraham starts too slow and froch will build up a lead he cant get back... cant see any knockouts as both got good chins.. froch on points!

marquez v katsidis ... two more warriors.. fancy katsidis, tough and his brother dying last month will spur him on even more to become the champ!

I think Abraham will knock out Froch in the mid to late rounds. Froch keeps his guard too low and that spells trouble against a fighter with Abraham's power.

Marquez vs Katsidis has the makings of a classic, I think they'll both come out swinging and keep swinging untill one of them can't get back up. I'll say Katsidis 8th round stoppage.

froch does keep his guard low but still handled pascal and kesslers shots, think abraham is too slow to get to froch, he got showed up a little by dirrell who is also quick.

can get some fancy prices with the bookies for katsidis 8/1 to win on points, 10/3 to win by ko, 9/4 to win fight

froch & katsidis double £10 pays £71 with victor chandler...

Carl Froch takes apart Arthur Abraham easily....A performance on a par with Calzaghe's win over Lacy???

Hopefully, people will now give him due respect.....He's a top fighter, real warrior, and best of all, doesn't dodge a fight!!

That was as good a performance that I've ever seen from any British boxer away from home. Totally dominated the fight from the first bell.

Froch gave Abraham the battering of his life. It's alright saying Abraham has power,and his record at middleweight shows that, but when he has the boxing ability of an arthritic snail compared to Froch, then you don't get any chance to show it.
