Since I did the right thing and paid for it I think all of you who watched it for free should do the right thing and send me $5 each. PM for my banking details, its the only fair thing to do.
I promise in the next PPV to send hourly email updates about the fighters to the forum, unless I'm drunk in which case I'll randomly insult whatever comes to mind and probably eventually vomit over my keyboard. Good times.

Don't even think about watching Dawson on ******* cunt. He's too good a fighter to waste on that sought of quality.... Its funny because Adamek is a bigger and stronger fighter then Johnson. But to the american audience this will be seen as his "breakout" fight. And he will absolutely dominate no question.

:lol: Agree on everything but how am i meant to watch the fight live? I was gonna download it and watch it later without going on any boxing sites but i'll be like a kid waiting to open his christmas present. Watch shit quality live then download DVD quality later sounds like a much better plan, also gives me a chance to watch Tarver-Woods which i wouldn't have downloaded. It's not like there's any other fights worth watching that day anyway. Yeah i said it.

Yeah no doubt, Cintron-Margarito rematch should be entertaining though, despite the fact that both guys are pretenders.
ipswich express
03-16-2008, 12:09 PM
If you check the odds, I think Cintron is well over priced for that one. Maybe worth laying a few bucks on him.
Cotto is such an awesome fighter to watch though, I wouldn't miss it for the world. Sometimes its great to see a guy of his calibre against someone who isn't in the same league as the Shane Mosleys and Zab Judahs of the boxing world. Its serves as a great reminder of just how good these guys really are. Gomez is a great guy and an exciting fighter as well. It will be a great fight to watch while it lasts. Gomez will certainly not die wondering thats for sure. Massive credit for hoping in with a guy like Cotto.
Marg will overcome Cintron as well. Cintron has been hyped again because he is a puncher, and looks impressive when he KO's people like Maythysse.
In reality, Cintron is not all that, and still pretty stiff overall. He won't be able to handle the pressure well. He went life and death with Estrada, i just can't see him being able to do that against Marg. It will definitely be much closer then the first fight though.
Dawson v Johnson is almost as big a mismatch as Cotto v Gomez IMO. If its anything less then a total shutout from Dawson i will be pretty disappointed. Johnson isn't exactly a young fighter.

Good point but i'm not sure if Cotto is that calibre of fighter, i mean he is good and will easily win but i don't think he is spectacular or skilled enough to the point that you can just enjoy seeing him dominate a fight, I think Mosley beat him in that fight aswell.
I think Cintron will be alot more focused for this fight so his mental weaknesses will be abit more hidden so it should be close, he needs to be landing consistently to keep Marg off him though. Cintrons last fight was pathetic so he has to be kicking himself over that, i think he'll be very determined.
Dawson v Johnson is a slight mismatch but not as much as if he was fighting that midget Diaconu. Johnson isn't just gonna lie down so Chad has to work hard atleast, as the fight gets closer i'm starting to think a late round stoppage with the referee stepping in.

Yeah i was hoping Cintron would be the favourite, but he is the underdog.
I was hoping for some good odds on Margarito:?
But it would not surprise me to see Cintron pull out a W with Steward.
Esp after his last fight, like you mentioned, he will want to show he is on the top level.
But im leaning towards another stoppage by Margarito. Well so far anyways.
Yeah agree with you on Dawson, he will take it too.
Yeah alot of people were favouring Diaconu against him though, Diaconu had a good amateur background, but have not seen enough of him as a pro, i felt Dawson would have won handidly.

With Diaconu he would have to be close to the shortest top 20 fighter at Light Heavyweight.
Dawson would be far too skilled with the big height/reach advantage.

He had alot of amateur fights but i think he lost about 60 and in the 1st round of the olympics he got KO'd by a Cuban so i don't know if you'd say he has a good amateur background. As pro he hasn't beaten anyone apart from Rico Hoye who doesn't have the most solid chin so anyone who is picking Diaconu over Dawson is speaking from emotion, there is no logic behind picking Diaconu. What they say is Dawson is chinny and tell you Diaconu is a devastating puncher like a Tyson despite the fact that Diaconu only has about a 60% KO ratio against limited opposition. Also what Kegsy says about the height and reach, Dawson has half a foot on him plus he is far more athletic, anyone who tells you Diaconu can win doesn't know what they are talking about.
Trust me mate, if that fight comes off bet your house and everyone in it on Dawson.

To be more accurate: He had over 300 amateur fights.
Diaconu was KO in his third game at the Olympics by the Cuban who became the champion...so u can see was KO by the best. He won silver in 98 and bronze in 97 at World Championships for amateurs. He won bronze in Euro 99 championship. He is a midget that will gain respect even from detractors like u... He has a low KO percentage cuz his opponents usually feel his power and run all day.

Why do the numbers 210 wins and 59 losses stick out to me? I never said how many fights he had but i'm pretty sure that's his record. I'm surprised that he's never won a significant AM tournament, thanks for that. If you're a top amateur you don't get KO'd.
If he is such a heavy puncher then his opponents aren't going to get a chance to run, they will be knocked out. Shouldn't a good pro be able to cut off the ring and get to the guy? That's a pretty poor excuse for him mate.
I seriously don't think the midget can gain respect from me, first decent fighter he faces will beat him. Your name suits you btw.

I disagree with you about Cotto, about him as a fighter and the Mosley fight.... 8-4 Cotto i scored the fight. Just because he was being defensive at times during the latter half of the fight, doesn't mean he was being effective.
Shane Mosley was stylistically a bad match up for Cotto in hind sight, much like he was for Oscar. Still, Cotto took out the fight, and showed just how well rounded he is a boxer.
His skills are very different to that of a Dawson, Mayweather or Mosley. He relies heavily on timing, his supreme balance and combination punching. Technically he is very under rated, much like KT was very under rated for his era as a boxer.
I think Cotto is definitely on the same level as all the guys i have mentioned above, just that he posseses a very different skill set. Still very effective.
Anyway, in regards to the Johnson bout, i think the fact that he opens himself up so much with his workrate, will make easy pickings for a counter puncher on the level of Chad Dawson. I wouldn't be suprised at all to see Johnson get KTFO, as unlike Adamek he doesn't know how to just sit back and let the fight slip away. An active offense will definitely be his downfall.

I don't know man, there's something about Cotto i don't like.......... the guy never smiles, i don't like the way he holds out his left hand, his stance and his right hand looks awkward, his defence is head down and cover up, he just isn't flashy enough for me, he is quite effective though. What it probably is is the fact that i keep betting against him and losing my money :patsch His timing is brilliant and he is an intimidating figure in the ring.

Yeah even before or after the Zab fight, i would not have wanted to put Cotto in these with Shane. I felt it would be a too dangerous fight.
But he proved he is one of the top guys in there.
Mosley did not lose the fight with Cotto and those fuckin commentators were pissing me off. The fight was a draw.
I thought Cotto would win the stand and trade action and Mosley the boxing action but it was the opposite.
Fuck Cotto, he def is a future Gatti just wait and see, he will lose little bits of form over the years and end up copping beating after beating to my delight, actually he's probably closer to being like Vargas than anything except Vargas had a health issue.

Yeah future Gatti that just beat one of your favourite fighters by OUTBOXING him hahaha. Are you saying that Gatti could outbox Shane Mosley then??? Prime Vargas was a very under rated fighter, who just didn't QUITE have enough. Cotto has shown on a couple of occasions that he succeeds in the face of adversity, where as Vargas simply could not. I agree with you though that Cotto will probably not have the longest career with his style of fighting. I can't see him doing anything good beyond the age of 33 to be perfectly honest.

Fair enough.... Dawson KO is paying alright as well, doesn't look like a bad bet. Johnson has a pretty good chin, but Dawson is a class above, against an older fighter. Dawsons power is under rated IMO also, and Johnson isn't as big or strong as Adamek.

Cotto has shown on a couple of occasions that he succeeds in the face of adversity, where as Vargas simply could not. I agree with you though that Cotto will probably not have the longest career with his style of fighting. I can't see him doing anything good beyond the age of 33 to be perfectly honest.Well the adversity Vargas had to endure was Oscar and Trinidad in their primes, how would Cotto fair against those two :think
Bring on the Mosley v Cotto rematch cunt :twisted:
I want some fucker to tear Cotto a new arsehole
