lmao that was hilarious, but to anyone who might be wondering, he wasn't calling himself THE Highlander but referring to where he's from, the mountainous region of Poland. Highlander is pretty much what his nickname Goral, translates to.

Adamek is freaking awesome... one of my favorite fighters to watch....

He is a mofo...

I love adamek but he's undersized to complete with Klistckos. I am not sure he has the power as Chris seems to be walking him down. Adamek fought the correct fight against the bigger man.

So far this year has been kind of disappointing in term of fights - some good one like williams/martinez and the super six but by far and large not much

Paul Williams - 152.5
Kermit Cintron - 154

Do the honorable thing, Paul! Give Cintron a proper match!

Hope all is good with Cintron.

Its too bad because the fight, after a slow start, seemed to pick up.

Why? Who is going to put up the money for a Cintron fight. I am convinced he took a dive. The table is just a little lower than the ring, he didn't hit the monitor which I thought initially until I saw the replay, and if he did get "hurt" that easily he should quit boxing for his health.

Actually nearly every report said he landed on the table's monitors (production equipment and the sort). I don't think he should've lied motionless if he wasn't really hurt since the doctors held him down a minute after because of a chance of a punctured lung.

As for the fight itself, it wasn't as if Williams was going to win easily when the action started to pick up. I think we missed a potentially forming action packed rest of the fight.

I'm far from ready to say Cintron took a dive. It's like last week when everyone began calling Mayweather-Mosley fixed.

I didn't see Cintron hit any thing on the table that was sharp enough to produced a puncture lung (also no blood on his body as he was carted away on a stretcher). He also didn't hit the monitor that was on the table when I saw it on the replay. I initially thought he might have landed on it and cracked a few ribs but he missed it. As for the doctor issue, if he got up right away like I would have on a spill like that instead of lying there moaning, it would be a non-issue.

I am skeptical of all the reports as I believe it's just information from his camp.

After watching that ending. . i have to say that was some fishy ****. . . It looks like he threw himself out. . .

Blame Rasho · Post #1296 » by **Blame Rasho** » Sun May 9, 2010 7:58 pm

Cintron picked the wrong sport to be in my opinion...

I think the doctor said he couldn't continue but eh... I mean we all know he would fold under pressure vs the better fighter.

He only has a punchers chance, and in boxing... that isn't enough at times.

He should have looked into MMA ealier in his career. He is perhaps the only guy who I think has the ability to be a respectable crossover fighter.

It is also a very safe fight for the chinny Khan....

Khan with the UD.... too fast for Paulie...

Ortiz gets a KO in the later round as well...
