    Dawson - Johnson: I think Glenn Johnson would give anybody problems because his relentless pressing style.  He has beat a lot of very capable fighters including Tarver and Woods.  I agree with you that the fight was a lot closer than the cards made it out to be although like you, I think Dawson won.  I think Dawson showed a lot of poise hanging in there after taking the pummelling he took.  When they fought on the outside, Dawson was faster and a much better boxer.  Dawson would beat Tarver. Tarver doesn't press like Johnson presses and on the outside Dawson's handspeed and boxing skills would prove Tarver's undoing.  

    Cotto - Margarito will be an awesome fight.  I don't think Floyd will fight Cotto or Margarito. Of course, it is the fight we want to see the most, but why should he when he can make more money fighting safer opponents like De La Hoya and Hatton?  The only way it will happen is if De La Hoya loses to Steve Forbes and Hatton loses in one of his next two fights.  I think Margarito might pose the bigger challenge for Floyd because at 5'11 1/2, he is significantly bigger than Floyd at 5'8 and has a longer reach (73" compared to 72"). I could be wrong.  Cotto is ruthless and has a helluva resume with wins over Mosley, Judah, Quintana, Malignaggi, N'dou, and Urkal.  If Cotto beats Margarito, he deserves the fight.

    Four huge boxing fights are happening this weekend:

    Antonio Tarver v. Clinton Woods - light heavyweights
    Chad Dawson v. Glenn Johnson - light heavyweights
    Miguel Cotto v. Arturo Gomez - welterweights
    Kermit Cintron v. Antonio Margarito - welterweights

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JlmiYBKClfc&fmt=18 (check out Dawson dismantle a game Adamak)
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=stOFhQAZZ_o&fmt=18 (Tarver/Woods press conference)
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KhZGGgdeQfo&fmt=18 (Cotto's greatest hits - think about this guys' resume: Mosley, Judah, Malinaggi, Quintana)
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gjl-B-XW8RQ&fmt=18 (Margarito hands Cintron his first KO)

    Woods will probably beat Tarver on the cards.  Dawson will completely outbox Johnson (I think he might hold the light heavyweight belt for a long time).  Gomez will stay around until he feels Cotto's right hand, and then he is done.  The last match is a close call.  I'll pick Margarito because he won the first fight between the two, but Cintron is a live competitor. 

    Also, here is an interesting video from Kelly Pavlik: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Puh0RwJMHn4&fmt=18

    Very good fight weekend.  We have another good one coming: David Haye v. Enzo Maccaranelli (sp?) and Sam Peter v. Oleg Maskaev.  I think both on Saturday.

    Hey Hey,

    I know you watched Pavlik beat Taylor for the second time.  Hopefully, you are now more impressed with him more than you were.  Taylor fought a much better fight (obviously...he wasn't limp in the corner at the end of it), but so did Pavlik.  Champions adjust. 

    I think the advantages of speed in boxing are overrated.   A champion boxer must possess a certain level of speed, but a boxer can become champion by being just pretty quick, yet smart, able to adjust, and knows well his personal attributes and way around the ring.  Pavlik has all of these.  He is tall for a middlweight (6'2") and has a long reach (73") and accordingly uses his jab overhand right like a tall fighter should.  He also is pressing and has a lot of power.  As you can tell, I think he is the real deal.  Look at his last four fights.  He beat Taylor, who himself beat Bernard, Edison Miranda whose only other loss was to champion Arthur Abraham, and Zertuche who at the time was touted as being very good with knockout power.   I would love to see Pavlik v. Abraham.  Other than that, he should move up and beat everyone at the next level and stay away from Calzaghe or Bernard.  Other than them, I don't know who could beat him now, maybe Kessler.  Winkie dodges Pavlik in the past, but that could be a decent match. 

    If you can watch tonight, Robert Guerrero is fighting Jason Litsau at 11pm est on Showtime.  It should be interesting.

    Hey there Buddy It has been a while, I added Sudoku a while a go i haven't really played it though. I love those sort of puzzle things i have a rubix cube on my desk which i still need to master. i can almost solve it just the bottom row gets me. So like those wooden puzzles you get that build stars and stuff i love playing with those. Other wise work is good little slow right now but we are going, we just got hit with 2 extra projects to day which are going right now at full steam. I do wish i could be doing more character animation but there are a few side projects that are lined up so we can do some. I hear that things are going well on your side of the world Arn does keep me up to date when you guys do catch up. I am glad to hear that they are going well. Anything intresting you working on right now?
