I spelled discussion wrong in the title can a mod plz fix that.
I was looking at the UFC General Discussion and figerd we needed one for boxing. I stole Eulogy idea and will keep current Boxing titles, and upcoming UFC events in this post.
There are a lot of weight classes so I just did the main 3 Heavy, Middle, and light.

Well dose anyone here like boxing? I only really follow middle weight.
My favortie boxer is Ronald (Winky) Wright
What do you guys think about the Jermain Taylor v Kassim Ouma fight coming up. Its on HBO. I will watch it but I doubt it will be much of a fight. I give Taylor a 6-9 round KO with Ouma winning only one round.
Did anyone see Wright vs Ike last saturday. I knew Wright would win but did anyone else notice how much punches he threw? Jesus this guy is throwing more and more punches every fight and he is 37.
I hope Winky will fight Talyor soon. I thought it was bull that Winky didnt win the first fight.
last Saturday Winky Wright and Antonio Tarver duked it out there. Tampa is starting to become a Boxing Town.
Wright fought Ike Quartey last saturday. Wright dominated the former champ in a one-sided twelve round decision to maintain his status as one of the best pound-for-pound fighters in the sport.
Yea it is. This saturday the middle weight title fight will be in the same place. So yea Tampa is starting to become a boxing town.

I stand corrected ..I didn't do my homework. But I am very siked of all the Coverage Boxing is bringing around Here. Around the Forum is just so jumping with stuff to do. Next time instead of being against the Glass ( Hockey ) I'll be close to Ringside...Hopefully...
Middleweight Jermain Taylor v Kassim Ouma
Taylor wins in a 12 round decision.
I just aint that impressed with Jermain Taylor as of lately.
Even though he defeated Hopkins twice (but lost the first fight) & then a draw with Wright (but lost that fight too) & even though Ouma (a much smaller man) pushed him around the ring tonight...I just can't agree with calling him The Undisputed Middleweight Champion of the World...even though...thats what he is. I don't know how long we can say he's a diamond in the rough.
