    I know it's tough to be one these days, but there's a great fight this weekend. Vargas vs Trinidad. I believe both are undefeated, and both hit very hard.

    Who's gonna win ? I'm rooting for Felix, but I think Vargas may knock him out in 9 rounds or less.

    Lennox Lewis ruined boxing, IMHO. What a chicken-****.

    He doesn't want to fight anyone. He sticks out his arm so that no one can get inside and tries to win by decision every time. I enjoyed the Holyfield and Tyson championships more because these guys would really go out and try to knock people out. Depending on your reach all of the time like Lewis just shows me that he is afraid to mix it up with guys. The only fighters worth watching anymore are Roy Jones Junior and Prince Naseem Hamed(sp?). Those two will go out to knock their opponent out. Although I do think RJ needs to drop back down to the lighter weight class.

    You may be right Hydra. But, I don't see anyone out there that can beat him.

    I don't know, but I certainly enjoy watching Prince Naseem Hamed fight! What an arrogant little bloke he is. But he sure is entertaining!

    Watch him next time, he fights on Showtime!

    That is going to be one bad ass fight. I say Felix in a decision over Vargas. When was the last time a good fight actually had a knockout [​IMG]?
