rd3- impressed w/both...nate wants it and has a little in the tank but garcia putting on a body work clinic...he's going to slow down the old man...good fight..2-1 garcia
4-old man strting to take some good shots now...nate gets in his own digs but garcia landing more and harder....3-1 garcia...old man going to need some magic...garcia throws combos like a veteren...impressive
rd5-the kid is strting to really dig in with his shots...i dont think nake goes the dst...he's got to be frustrated...he landed a nice rt and garcia barely flinched then garcia unloaded in final 30 secs...4-1 garcia...i
rd6-quiet rd...garcia busier and landing more...nate taunting but the kid is cool...garcia 5-1 imo

Jose Miguel Cotto/Paul Malignaggi Under 9? +500
I know most of you are going to giggle at this play for obvious reasons but here is my rationale.
I think Cotto is awful and Paulie is actually the bigger man here. I can see him applying enough speed and pressure where the lesser Cotto's corner throws in the towel. Also Paulie was actually sitting on his punches last out so who know, maybe he is a new man.
Paulie has been violently KTFO twice recently and if Cotto has a great night, then Paulie can get Yuri Foreman'd here (yes I had the Yuri Foreman under as well).
Paulie used to have a lot of problems breaking his hand. If it happens again, and at age 30 and as the non-main event maybe his corner stops it.
Butts
Too many maybes in my mind to not take a stab here

rd9-nate not able to capitilize...garcia keeps him honest and lands some nice power shots...pretty good fight for the young kid...nate came to win and garcia not obliging...7-2 garcia...Nate will need a miracle ko....these guys watching another fight than me...doug fisher has it close....:shrug:
garcia landing nice 1-2s. Nate a little buzzed...good last rd for the kid...thx for the good career nate but please dont fight any more....going to get hurt if he does...i have it 98-92...Fisher said he wouldnt be surprised to see a draw on one of the cards???? Id be shocked....competitive but not close at all imo

I almost pulled the trigger on the doggie @ 12-1 (admittedly it would have been tiny)
throwing in random guys every 2 weeks against Kirkland was bound to end in disaster
Holy SHEEEEET. I am beyond shocked....not watching but can't believe what I just read...MAJOR MAJOR UPSET :scared. Hopefully nobody thought about "free" money at -3000. Upset weekend...hopefully that is the last one.
WOW!!!
I thought that was a bit strange matchmaking. 6-3 Ishida. Former champ. Kirkland on ice for long time??? That said, never ever expected Kirkland to lose - and like that! Otherwise would have played +1750 dog. Wow!

I for one thought Kirk was The Goods. Thanking my lucky stars for finding out tonight on an unbettable fight against a "no hoper" and not when I wagered the farm on him but please NO MORE UPSETS :00x11

Imagine if Kirkland was set at minus 6 or so?
