Lacy just couldn’t hang with Taylor.

   I don’t think anyone who tuned in to watch the fight on Saturday really expected Jeff Lacy to come out of the ring a winner in Tennessee. The surprising thing to me when I watched the fight was how much bigger Jermaine Taylor was and how he used his size to back Lacy down. [...]

Big fight night!

   There are two fights I’m very interested in watching tonight. The first is the big UFC fight between Randy Couture and Brock Lesnar. I don’t know much about MMA and have never really got into it, but this fight really makes me want to watch. I really miss Brian when it comes to this [...]

Hopkins, Calzaghe this Saturday on HBO.

   I’m still working on some things with some local promoters with Boxing but this is a fight that absolutely needs to be seen. I’m no fan of Calzaghe after the beating he gave to one of my favorite hometown boys in Jeff Lacy but he’s without a doubt one of the best fighters I’ve [...]
