Re: BTW Season Week #30 MDT Quarter-Finals
Some EPIC Battles here. Morales vs Olivares III may have been the best one yet.
Rafael Marquez and Manny Pacquiao had the greatest of their 3 bouts as well. Fighting Harada and Agustin Senin was good stuff too, Senin damn near pulled off another one.
Erik Morales is now a 2x World Champion!!!!!
BigJuicyHog, Olivares will always have my respect. Win or Lose, Morales was always in a f*cking all out war when Olivares was on the other side of the ring. An Epic rivalry!!!!

Re: BTW Season Week #30 MDT Quarter-Finals
Wow, just wow.
Re: BTW Season Week #30 MDT Quarter-Finals
Great fight indeed but The people disaagree with the decision.
Flushed? Pacquiao was saved by the bell when he got flushed in the 14th.

Gilgamesh.....get thicker glasses, and pay attention to detail.
On the day of this statement, Jofre was a FORMER champion. Not a STANDING champion....though he was also a FUTURE champion.

Eder Jofre!
From earlier in THIS thread. I'm thinking maybe you need thicker glasses BoxDuck.
Re: BTW Season Week #30 MDT Quarter-Finals
Nope...I don't, my glasses are way thick. Now...I'm tellin' you ...it was a fact when it was a fact. That's all you need to know. Other than that, there is very little variance between what I wrote, and the facts of the matter.
Now stop provoking me or I will pull out a series of multi syllable words that will impose a dire consequence upon you and your loved ones.
Besides...it's Eder Jofre.....he doesn't count....his software has been known to abuse steroids.
