DLH was tired, McCall was crazy and not fit to fight anyway. There were medical reports before hand that he wasn't fit to fight.
William Joppy: why don't I stand here with my hands on my sides and let Tito hit me in the face?

Why did Patterson take the rematch with Liston?
Why did Jones spend so much time "resting" against Johnson?
Why oh why did Ali come back for Holmes?
Or Gatti deciding to outbox Mayweather.

Ahh this. I remember watching the fight and wondering WTF he was doing. It was like he wanted to prove to himself that he could be in the ring again without being KOd or something so he just hung out for a while...till he got KOd.

But he looked so relaxed. I mean he really looked OK to me. But he was fucked on the cards, he needed a KO by round 8!
It is one of the strangest thing i've ever seen. At the end of round one Johnson went back to his corner and his man said: "That's what it's going to take to win this fight. That every round." And I thought, "yeah, right."
Fair play to Johnson, he just about managed it.

Would it have made any difference?
Jost postponing the inevitable.
Tszyu was a finisher and there was little doubt what would have happened next, given the state of Zab's legs.
On the thread topic, why didn't Jones retire after Ruiz, or even after Tarver (1)?

Not only that but the way he went about doing it , 'I know what I'll do , I'll stand with my feet wide apart in a stance that reduces my speed and movement and I'll try to outjab him' . Throughtout that whole fight while most people were thinking 'wow Mayweather's boxing amazingly' , I was just thinking 'wow Gatti's a fucking idiot'
The reason Morales fought the last round against Pacquiao Southpaw.........because he could , and that's why we loved Morales .

I think that a more suitable question would be WTF posesed Gatti to sign a contract to fight Mayweather.

The nice payday, his own guts, and it wouldn't look good if he got stripped of his belt.

What the hell was HBO thinking by televising any Cory Spinks fights?
Which fight did Stinks appear on HBO besides the first Judah fight (which was actually the most entertaining fight I've ever seen him in)?

Hasim Rahman with his "mummy" defence v Lewis.
Nate Campbell v Robbie Peden. "Go on, hit me then......oops.."
Agree with the Hagler fighting orthodox one.
Kirk Johnson training on donuts before fighting Vitlay
Toney taking steroids AFTER already being caught once.
Golota walking out of the ring v Tyson.

-Carlos Navarro counting himself out along with the ref against Bobby Pacquiao.
That was the craziest and funniest thing ive seen, but what was also funny was Pacquiao slippin' and slidin' like he was on skates with them old ass shoes on

All of these are good. You could make a whole book on these about Golota,
Remember when he was shot up with demerol or something right before fighting Lennox Lewis and had a panic attack?
