too easy for pacman, but it never looked like anyone would be knocked out

mayweather fight would have been good too but I honestly don't think anybody can beat pacquiao right now
man you know what would have been a fucking awesome fight? pac-man vs. julio cesar chavez

Sorry I missed this, just watched a couple of rounds on youtube and Manny looked untouchable. Disappointed Clottey hid behind his hands so much but I think the early tone put him in survival mode and he couldn't really breakout of it.
So otm. I love to see a big knockout as much as the next blood thirsty loon but nothing beats 12 rounds of schooling - Calzaghe vs Lacy a great example, who cares if Joe wasn't concussive just fucking watch the guy box.

Not a boxing stan, but Brits should check out When Harry Met Ali:A Tribute to Harry Carpenter, some fantastic footage, not least this reaction to Ali winning his title back in the 'Rumble in the Jungle', spine tingling stuff.

Explosive start from Haye - had Ruiz down twice in the first (the second with a cheap shot in the back of the head). Then he wasted the second round walking away. Strange fight.

is the fight PPV?
― pfunkboy (Herman G. Neuname), Saturday, 3 April 2010 22:25 (fourteen years ago) link
dunno I'm watching it on Veetle :)
I'd take either Klitschko to take Haye's head off on this evidence.

Yeah. Also can't find a decent stream.

and Ruiz is down again
another punch in the back of the neck tbh
― nasri like the wolf (onimo), Saturday, 3 April 2010 22:31 (fourteen years ago) link
like haye as a fighter but wdn't mind seeing a (highly unlikely) sonning from old man rr

jr lol
ruiz getting his bum bum kicked

Ruiz is a fucking hard guy to keep down. He's walking straight forward and Haye's picking him off at will but you get the sense Haye gets worried when Ruiz gets close in the corner.
― nasri like the wolf (onimo), Saturday, 3 April 2010 22:36 (fourteen years ago) link
Ruiz has been on his arse about six times yet it's still Haye boxing backwards looking to counter.
― nasri like the wolf (onimo), Saturday, 3 April 2010 22:37 (fourteen years ago) link
yeah wtf haye be a man and just go on the offensive
offensive like his ugly arse shorts
― he might have even have gone in. (a hoy hoy), Saturday, 3 April 2010 22:38 (fourteen years ago) link
Ruiz looks pretty much done but you have to admire the guy for not taking a backward step.

not like Haye is the most exciting fighter in the world but thank God for a Ruiz L
― Twink Will Ferrell (J0hn D.), Saturday, 3 April 2010 22:46 (fourteen years ago) link
Never in doubt tbh.
Dear David Haye,
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rabbit_punch
Because this is a potentially fatal blow, the rabbit punch is illegal in boxing
Regards,onimo
― nasri like the wolf (onimo), Saturday, 3 April 2010 22:47 (fourteen years ago) link
haye seems an unlikely hweight champ, he seems more charmed trickster than dull psychopath, you feel that if he did ever get hurt he'd find it difficult to come back
i guess he upped his psycho credentials a little tonight though
― nakhchivan, Saturday, 3 April 2010 22:50 (fourteen years ago) link
anything that keep Ruiz from scaring potential fans away is a positive imo
Ruiz fights worse than watching paint dry x10000
― Twink Will Ferrell (J0hn D.), Saturday, 3 April 2010 22:52 (fourteen years ago) link
Haye will never beat the Klitschkos fighting like this, which makes me think the plan is to never fight them.
― Matt Armstrong, Saturday, 3 April 2010 22:57 (fourteen years ago) link
Haye's quite late to the division and I think he's felt a few heavyweight punches and decided to be a bit more circumspect in attack. Anyone with a bit of talent and power will stop him.

this hopkins/jones undercard has been pretty limp so far

hopefully mora brings something but I'm not holding my breath
whoa no sooner do I complain than green-mora round 2 completely slays! complaining on ilx works...who knew?
― Twink Will Ferrell (J0hn D.), Sunday, 4 April 2010 01:58 (fourteen years ago) link
round 3 also great - this is a proper match
― Twink Will Ferrell (J0hn D.), Sunday, 4 April 2010 02:01 (fourteen years ago) link
green extremely game in round 4 but mora like a fucking tidal wave - whole flurry of unanswered blows but green refused to clutch. green's punches are starting to lose steam tho
fucking GREAT fight
― Twink Will Ferrell (J0hn D.), Sunday, 4 April 2010 02:06 (fourteen years ago) link
Mora relentless in round 5, buckled Green's knees at one point but Green is seriously on some I-will-not-fall stuff, like Frank Fletcher from way back - this is crazy but it can't last, he's gotta go in the next round or two
― Twink Will Ferrell (J0hn D.), Sunday, 4 April 2010 02:11 (fourteen years ago) link
nothing on Green's punches in round 6. cornermen should think about calling it a night imo
― Twink Will Ferrell (J0hn D.), Sunday, 4 April 2010 02:14 (fourteen years ago) link
stopped after too many unanswered punches in round 7. no knockdown. killer match

post-fight mic-audible-in-the-house interview is a weird thing - makes the fights feel like reality TV, which no-one will be surprised to learn is not a direction I'm eager to see more of, even if the Contender is what gave us Mora
