It was major league fun....And I had another very successful night at the tables.

I believe that Clay-Bey was fighting the right fight for his current condition. I think that he was a little bit heavy and didn't have the stamina that Etienne did. So he let Etienne work him up and then he would let go with his blistering punches and then he would have to rest a bit. It seemed that Clay-Bey felt that he could take Etienne's punches, but at one time, he was very close to having his clock cleaned.

Etienne with a little more technique and Clay-Bey in a little better shape will put both of them at the top of the heap. IMO.

I was more disappointed with Lewis than Tua. At least Tua's drums were cool.

This may have been the worst fight, let alone heavyweight championship fight that I have ever seen.

BTW: the crowd was overwhelmingly in Tua's camp...don't know why, but there were very few Lewis fans in the crowd.

Working on getting tickets to the Vargas v. Trinidad fight. My dollars will go on Vargas.
