Good Evening Fight Fans,
-----
Last weekend Floyd Mayweather secured his legendary status within the sport of boxing. His unanimous points decision over Juan Marquez was not just a win. It was a boxing masterclass. The defence, the speed, the accuracy, the jabs, the check hooks, the straight rights...he made Marquez look like a chump - which he is not! If Marquez was not the Mexicano that he is, he would have fallen like a domino. It's testament to his will power to have stayed the length of the fight. Floyd now needs to sit tight and wait and see what happens in the Cotto v Paqman fight. If Paqman wins......it's on! Pack ya suit case - we off to Vegas!!! As for that loser Shane Mosely - what a bum! Bumrushing Floyds interview to beg him for a fight. Mosley listen up: You're a old, washed up, golden boy waste of space. Not even your wife wants you. Get lost!

5 people proudly predicted the fight correctly (although let me add, I almost had it when Floyd almost dropped him in the 9th). Mrs Ellis, Marie, Madmax, BLT and Crispy all came up trumps. Well done to you guys. Crispy and BLT are on a wave of momentum the size of which can only be likened to John Coffey! Crispy is showing exactly why she is the reigning and defending champ and her fighting words of title-retainment may prove to be more than just words. Having just celebrated his birthday, BLT is quite simply on cloud 9! Sitting neatly in joint 2nd place, BLT is correctly predicting all kinds which leads me to think this could be his year. We'll see... Biggest big-ups though, go to Madmax. This guy is taking to the field (and the trail) every week despite his broken ribs. How he's walking, talking and predicting winners is a wonder to say the least! Enigma is still the man to beat though. At the other end....well, to quote the league leader: "Eddie Brock is the worst sports predictor on planet Earth..!" haha.
The only man to pick Marquez - relegation impending!

The next Biiiigtime Boxxxxing is on November 7th. David Haye v Nikolai Valuev for the heavyweight championship. This is a true David v Goliath! Valuev is a ridiculous 7 foot 2 inches of pure Russian Wild Boar-chasing homosapian. He's the reigning champ and he owns 34 KO's from his 50 wins. Every man he's ever faced he's beaten up. He's quite simply large-n-in-charge! South London's David Haye has already declared that he wants to clean up the heavyweight division. Britain has not had a heavyweight champ since East Londons Lennox Lewis. The Hayemaker is probably the fastest punching heavyweight since Muhammed Ali and he's got good punching power to match. Hayemaker's on a mission. If he didn't get injured he would have fought and smashed both the Klitsko brothers. That chance has gone and so he's waging war on the only other champ. You gotta love that kinda attitude. But David Haye is still relatively untested in the heavyweight ranks. To step up and go straight for Valuev, who has never ever been down, is a biggy. Rudi Lorrai says: Valuev's too big. Haye's too small. Haye's chin is too soft. But Valuev needed skanking European judges to get through a 50 year old Evander Holyfield (who, trust me, was not the real deal)! Something tells me David Haye will somehow come through with a points victory.

Get your predictions in when you can, you gout about a month to come correct. The fights on Sky Box Office. Now I know that s**ts expensive, don't fear though. The RLTv cameras will be beaming live and for free. Casa de Rudi is open to one and all. Other fights... There's so many fights before and after Nov. 7th I cant even control myself! Carl Froch, Juan Lopez, Paqman, Prizefighter...s'all big!!

Last words has got to be for Darren Sutherland. He was definitely going to be bigtime in boxing. RIP.
