Wow! I too was glad to see Sanchez get some good punches in. Those were some very solid punches and they didn't seem to wobble Naseem at all. He can really take a punch. That was the best Naseem fight that I have seen. Some have lasted longer, but at least Sanchez went in there punching. A good night of boxing.

LPS5, Augie looked good for a little while - a very little while. The Prince is a genuine killer and it hurts me to admit that. The Diaz-Ward fight was a classic - a slightly less intense version of the Morales-Barrera war - two great warriors. I look forward to Diaz-Tszyu. LPS, I know Foreman never fought Holmes and that was never at issue. The issue was whether Holmes fought Ron Lyle. He didn't. Foreman fought Lyle in a classic war in 1976. Mark thought he had seen Holmes in a war with Lyle, but it was Foreman-Lyle. See my previous post on the subject. Tonight Roy Jones discussed speculation on a possible future match with Tito Trinidad at 168. Trinidad would be way out of his element. Jones is too big, too strong, too fast and Tito would lose badly. Hell, Tito would be dismantled by Bernard Hopkins if he moved to 160. Hopkins was no match for Jones. Tito will be even less of a problem for Jones. Franco

i'm giving the prince his full and complete credit for his amazing punching power. to borrow a phrase from LPS5's favorite fighter... "he hit like a f___ing mule kick!" those last three hammer shots hamed landed on sanchez were remarkably similar to what we just saw lewis do to botha! guess i can always tune in late and miss the goofy entrances. tonight i finally got won over by the prince's pure punching power. i agree, btw, with larry merchant, who said that sanchez was way outclassed.
