I agree with you that there are some good fights this weekend. I love weekends like this and it makes me appreciate having the DVR so I don't have to miss anything.

I don't like Mora so much though, I hope Forrest puts it on him. I have no doubt in his prime Forrest would put it on Mora. I lost a lot of respect for Mora when he ducked Jermain Taylor. That let me know he didn't care to be the champ, he just wants fights he thinks he can win....and then he gets Elvin Ayala and fights him to a draw. I like fighters with big hearts that will take on anyone.

I think the best fight and most interesting of the three is Quintana/Williams II. I am really looking forward to that.

I lost a lot of respect for Mora when he chickened out of a fight, too. A lot of latino's lost respect for him and started calling Mora, "THE LATIN POLLO."

Nice weekend.

Pavlik is probably my favourite boxer right now. So I'm hoping he owns the night on saturday.

Pavlik should whoop on Lockett something bad. But don't forget about the Daniel Ponce de Leon/Juan Manuel Lopez fight on the undercard. That's one of the better matchups at 122 and the winner puts himself in line to perhaps fight the great Israel Vazquez soon. Or hell, even Rafael Marquez.

As for Showtime, I think Williams takes a narrow decision and wins his belt back, while at the same time, I get the feeling that Mora's gonna pull the upset over Forrest. Forrest is talking some hardcore shit about Mora and the Contender too, I get the feeling he's overlooking Mora a bit. The last time he did that, Ricardo Mayorga happened to him.
