I can't break down Mayweather-Hatton any better than Larz did on No Mas Online (found here and here) so I won't even try.
Let me just say these four things, though:
1) That was one of the greatest KOs of all-time.
2) Mark Cuban's face while carrying that belt was one of the ...

While we're on the subject of celebrities walking to the ring with boxers I thought I would mention my all-time favorite moment: Matisyahu rapping as he accompanies Dmitriy Salita to the ring on 08/25/05 before challenging Shawn Gallegos for the NABA Light Welterweight title. It gives me chills every time.

I just received this press release and while I usually don't post these this one was just too good to ignore. I didn't think Mayweather could top the Cinco De Mayo outfit he wore to the ring before the De La Hoya fight but come Saturday night he most certainly ...

I touched on this last week but the reason I love the current edition of HBO's 24/7 so much is because the differences between Ricky Hatton and Floyd Mayweather are so vast its almost comical. Sure, Oscar De La Hoya is no Pretty Boy Floyd but there's no denying that ...

It's been a while since I called the great city of Montreal my home but that doesn't mean I still don't hold a soft spot in my heart for all things Quebec (just look at the name of this blog for further proof).
So, needless to say, when I was offered ...

A few weeks ago, we presented our first-ever MMA awards show. And, boy, was it a hit. The MMA world is still buzzing over our decisions. Seriously, they are.
So, the next logical step was to come out with...The 2007 Jarry Park Boxing Awards.
And who better than the Sweet Scientist himself, ...
