...This weekend there are some great fights on both Showtime and HBO respectively, who wins and why?

Darren Barker vs Felix Sturm IBF middleweight title fight--I'm rolling with Sturm, still think he has enough in the tank to take win this fight...should be a good fight all around...

Paulie Malignaggi vs. Zab Judah, 12 rounds, welterweights--total toss up, can't call it...

Devon Alexander vs. Shawn Porter, 12 rounds, for Alexander's IBF welterweight title--I actually think Porter has a shot to win, let's see how it goes down...

Erislandy Lara vs. Austin Trout, 12 rounds, for Lara's WBA interim junior middleweight title--I like Lara, crafty fighter...should be a solid fight...two southpaws...

Guillermo Rigondeaux vs. Joseph Agbeko, 12 rounds, for Rigondeaux's WBA/WBO junior featherweight title--would love to see the upset, just don't think Agbeko can pull it off at this stage of the game...

Glen Tapia vs. James Kirkland, 10 rounds, middleweights--Kirkland is tough, but his lack of activity may cost him, should be interesting...Tapia is no joke...

Integrity is the Cornerstone of Artistry...

Agbeko aint fking with no Rigo.

im taking Zab to beat Paulie. He's looked better as of late.
Should be an interesting fight though. Paulie can box.

I got Trout beating Lara, but the inactivity might do him in.
He shouldve been fought since he was robbed by "Canela". (c) Floyd Sr

EDIT: and Floyd's cronies aka sparring partners will all take L's again.

And no interest in the battle for BK?

I've watched each fighters last 4-5 bouts and I might watch if the big 10 chip is a blowout before i leave the crib.

I got Paulie outboxing Zab, but Judah gotta let those fist fly against Paulie.

Porter should beat Alexander, unless he lets him stink it out.

Lara beats Trout. Too slick.

Rigo beats Agbeko

Kirklands needs a win, so I'll go with him.

Great boxing weekend though, shit. Wish I had DVR for a night.

Really excited for that Kirkland fight.

Then he went to prison then got knocked out by some Japanese dude. Then I kind of lost track of him

porter with a smooth 5-1 underdog domination, too.

i still blame hip-hop.

Here's what I wrote about the card:

Also wrote about Lamar Russ on the HBO card this week:

It seems like most of the fights will skew towards chess match and away from slugfest, but I'm interested in most of them...pretty even/appropriate matchmaking across the board IMO. Trout-Lara for example, will probably not be that exciting, but it should be pretty interesting to watch them try to figure each other out.

Andre heart pumps sweet tea.

Breathe through the nose
keep the mouth closed.
Through the blood
Chi goes where the dow flows.

Speed/boxing skills trump power against the elite competition. If you're saying Anthony is more exciting to watch then I'll give you that but I've seen anything spectacular to say that he's better than Andre.

WHAT'S GOOD *****? What's REALLY good?!?!????!!! Ha HA!

He basically got shut out by 2 elite boxers in Ward/Calzaghe who killed him w/ counter-punches ....Andre is also a MUCH BETTER boxer than Bute who also beat Bika convincingly.

yeah, I switched over to the other network half way through that one…I had some paper on the underdog too, so it was nice to see Porter do his thing...

Integrity is the Cornerstone of Artistry...

he needs to fire his entire corner, they damn near got him killed, dude couldn't even open his eyes between rounds at the end there.

No doubt…

Typical no show Zab, brother had so much promise back in the day…Anyway, I picked Paulie cause I knew Zab has that tendency to disappoint. Going back to the days of his fights vs the Spinks kid, where he stunk ish up...

Integrity is the Cornerstone of Artistry...

Tapia's corner might have ruined his career

He thought he had a shot and didnt move.....sweet gameplan.

and seeing how his corner handled he rest of the fight we know they didnt plan for more than 30 seconds of that death match.

Tapia might be done.

Lol Zab lol

Think Dirrell got jobbed

http://i.imgur.com/vPqCzVU.jpg

I get the sense that the Dirrell brothers always look for the easy way out of fights, always falling/weak and verbally complaining…go out there and handle business, and stop crying….it's like they don't REALLY want to be in the ring….that said, I still think the younger Dirrell should have gotten the nod….Kirkland does sound bad, slurring and repeating himself…Poor Zab ain't never had heart, gotta go back to Brownsville and man-up to losing to pillow hands….lol….

Integrity is the Cornerstone of Artistry...

and it was a fluke loss at that
maybe they can set up a lara vs. kirkland fight at 154
cause i don't know why anyone would want to fight either one of those dudes willingly

~~~~~~

a guy he can't catch...who can also punch. lol

It would be good though. But yeah, I woulda swore Kirkland had 2 or 3 losses.

like he heart wasn't in it. Paulie looked fast and his jab was workin. But the fight was just disappointingly one sided

...watched the fight again, and from what I saw, Zab did not have his head in the fight because he quickly found out that he was not fast enough for Paulie...Paulies' movement had him confused, and Zab simply isn't smart enough/trained to make adjustments in a fight...he has shown that inability time and time again...like someone said above, if he had the right guidance in his career, and gotten rid of his father as a trainer earlier in his career, I think he could have been a beast...Paulie thoroughly dissected Zab....

Integrity is the Cornerstone of Artistry...

...He's motivated by checks but not to be "the Best" anymore...

I think he's totally fine with "gatekeeper" prospects and the "Barclays Center, 'Farewell Brooklyn'" tour....

That said... Paulie was *QUITE* sharp....


"Inspectah Deck, he's like...he's like that dude thatta sit back and watch you play yourself and all that right? And see you sit there and know you lyin; and he'll take you to court after that, cuz he the Inspectah."
