luchar
carlos hernandez v erik morales. great fight. carlos has heart, but erik is the much better fighter. he must have won just about every round. we've seen 8. it's the wbc/ibf championship in the 130 lb division. what is that, lightweight? i should find out. it's my weight class. furious finish to round 9. furious round the whole way. morales is so in control. here comes round 10. hernandez keeps comin and morales keeps hittin him. i'm just gonna watch. round 11 was a bloody mess. hernandez has gone 12 twice, losing both. he's about to lose his 3rd. they're standing here punching eachother. i don't know why morales doesn't run. he's got the fight won. it's over. morales has his arms in the air. we all know what the result will be. hernandez was a flurry of punches the whole time but morales just stood there and calmly dodged the calm before the storm and landed every punch. it's unanimous. morales. now 10-1 in 12 round decisions. 48-1 overall.
now it's laila ali v monica nunez. super middleweight iwbf championship. i think nunez is gonna win. 10 rounds. this is ridiculous. these girls are scared of getting hot. they're flinging their hands in the air with no hope of connecting. everything is aimed at the head. round 2 looks a little better. ali is the better fighter. this fight is really boring though. they're getting more tired jumping up and down than from punches. i find it hard to believe that there is ever a knockout. but ali has knocked out 14 of her 17 opponents, nunez 5 of 10.
are these really the best women's boxing has to offer? i find that hard to believe. it's certainly a much bigger moneymaker to have an ali as the champion. whoa they threw in the towel! i've never seen that. ali is pissed. i guess she wanted the knockout. nunez was just hugging at every opportunity. sucky boring fight.
what i was gonna say though is things are shifting. women are boxing. one day, women will be stronger than men. men will be the nurturers, women will be the providers. the species evolves.
