    Guerrero has a chin and a half. Tough SOB.

    Thurman is the real deal. Not sure mayweather or pacquiao wants a piece of him. Props to Guerrero showing crazy heart

    The PBC show was interesting. First fight was a dud because Molina didn't come to fight. Thurman-Guerrero was a good scrap. The entrance thing looked cool. Not sure how I feel about the actual entrances though. On one side, I kind of like it because its different. On the other side, entrances are one of the fun parts about a fight and this one man only entrance took a little excitement out. They should do WWE style entrances like in Europe. Its almost like they tried to clean up boxing for NBC lol.

    All in all, not bad. As long as we get at least one competitive fight on these shows, I can't complain much. For comparisons, UFC on FOX first show I believe did a 3.1 rating and PBC did 0.9. Crazy how popular UFC is yet the combined purse for the two TV fights for PBC was more than the entire UFC in Sweden card.

    It was ruled as a slip but haven't seen any angles showing the legs on that replay

    I got a chance to rewatch it yesterday, it was definitely a slip. I think the ref stopped it early, but I don't think it would have made a difference. What the ref missed was that Pascal ran into the cornerman wiping the mat, when that happened he moved to the other corner. The ref turns around and it looks like he is just wandering around the ring lost. I think he was concerned at that point that Pascal was out of it then he took the big shot immediately after that and it was stopped. I don't think Pascal would have lasted much longer anyway. It was a good fight, lots of punches thrown and a good bit of them power punches. I was entertained, much more so that the Cunningham fight earlier in the card.
