Have a good time. Im in Miami and was actually going to go to the fight until they moved it to the Orlando area. It was originally supposed to be at the America Airlines arena but now the Playboy Superbowl party is there. $2500 a head to get in that baby.

Nice call on Diaz...looks like you finally got a break that was long overdue

Julio "The Kidd" Diaz (34-3, 25 KOs) can now drop the "interim" moniker after bizarrely dethroning IBF lightweight champion Jesus Chavez (43-4, 30 KOs) when Chavez collasped at :22 of round three with an injury to his right knee. Chavez was counted out.

"the bunker"
didn`t see it...but,"bad" chad must have been to quick for adamek.....

i was concerned about the later rounds,and as i`ve read,adamek came on.....

but,judging by the scores...and despite a late knockdown,dawson was a little to athletic....

getting 2-1.....beautiful....can`t wait to see it...

whoa....dawson literally toyed with adamek for most of the fight...the got a little cocky and stayed in the pocket to long in the 10th....and to a lesser extent the 11th and 12th.....

he may stil have won the 11th or the 12th...

it was a moot point,though...

dawson has some serious tools....

keep your eyes out for diaz...if he steps up to fight any "elite" fighters...i`m not talking about the "other" diaz(the baby bull)...that will be a fun fight to watch,but neither guy is even close to an elite fighter...

nice,smart call on diaz....he looked 2 full weight classes bigger than chavez.....was that a super bowl moment?...looked like a chop block....diaz engaged him..and the invisible man hit him low..... ..and the ref didn`t even throw a 15 yarder on diaz........lol

nice night for everyone...

waiting on the ben rabah/n`dou result...

Give him credit on the Dawson call too - that was even a better call.

Adamek got his ass kicked big time I have to admit that. I'm Polish and I was at the fight but it wasn't even close. Fight itself was pretty boring but me and my friends had a lot of fun. I've never ever in my life drunk more than during this past weekend. Congratulations to all who were on Dawson side.
Hey Boxlock do you see any chance for Adamek to get his belt back or is he pretty much done????

Thanks for the props almly...good to have you around again

However...gardenweasel was on Dawson before I posted my play on him, we agreed on that winner...as usual

Box, thanks. And by the way, it's early, but I was wondering about Marquez-Barrera in March. I'll most likely go to that one. Thinking Marquez. At +160, which I already played here in Vegas, it seems like a decent enough value. I think you may still have my e-mail. IF you find a moment or three, maybe you can give me an early "lean" opinion. Reason is I sent it in pretty good and would love an unbiased opinion. I'm a Marquez fan and when you bet what I did, being a fan may be a disaster!

thank you,brother...and i`d like to add a little context on my hissy fit....not that it`s worth the effort....

my "friend" almly has apparently e mailed me about some football and boxing issues.....my computer,as box knows,has been infected with some sort of virus that forces me to have to reboot time and again,restore my system and it f-cks up my e mail on an intermittent basis....

it can take hours to log on....and i`m lucky if i get e-mails...

i didn`t respond in a timely fashion to his e mails,and then i saw his comment in this thread basically saying he was through with me....

soooo,cause i liked almly and we go back a ways,i e-mailed my "friend" almly back explaining my situation and giving him a write-up on dawson...giving him pros and cons ..and concluding that he was a nice play and getting 2-1 odds to boot...this was after i emailed box on 01/31 indicating i liked dawson....

i don`t care who gets credit,but reading his comment thanking box for the dawson play seemed like an intentional shot at me..........after taking my time to send the man a write up....

soooo,maybe my slip is showing a bit...maybe my panties got bunched up a bit....but that got under my skin.....

end of soap opera...

box,if you want i can send almly your e-mail....this way he won`t have to fool with me...

i`m fine with it....

Jesus H. Christ! I wasnt paying that close attention. I was just reading people complimenting Box on the Diaz play so I said give him credit for Dawson too because that got the better money. I forgot you talking about Dawson in that email - I just woke up, was hung over, and added the comment. I wasnt even trying to snub you.

Unreal. I havent even made a boxing play yet because Im still going over tape and I gotta go to West Union now to fund the damn 5dimes account. I also havent seen anything Ive really liked lately. I havent bet on anything in awhile.

Relax buddy, those panties are bunched up a little bit. Seriously, I just read those other guys posts and remember that he picked Dawson too.

ANYWAY. Barrera vs Marquez should definitely go the distance and I would lean towards Marquez too. But seriously Franks, if youre going to play him for big money you should order a copy of that John fight from Blood Sweat and Tears.

Thanks almly for the heads up. I will get that. GW-go to download.com; super anti-spy; it's free and it cleans up a lot of crap. I use it as a maintenance tool. Finds spy-ware and viruses. Actually, back to Marquez. I ALREADY bet it, BUT, I can buy off of it. Guess I got a little rambunctious.

I like Marquez at +160...but its not a fight I would load up on, just good value as it could go either way

I'll get back you later on the details
