How far will the 2010 San Francisco Giants be able to carry Pablo Sandoval and his overweight load which comes complete with silly twenty dollar "Panda" hats that are just about as lame as the nickname itself?  At the moment we don't have the time to see what kind of miracles could come from a steady diet of bamboo leaves, but that may be just what "The Panda" needs to regain his lost focus.  This strict diet along with three months in Fresno might just do the trick.  Bochy is free to steal this idea and brand it the "Panda-90X." However, it now, "is what it is."  We are now in a very unnecessary game 6 due to the fat man's two errors which destroyed an otherwise brilliant performance by Lincecum.  I know it's a cruel thing to say in SensitiveVille, and that most left wing leaning Giants fans aren't ready for it, but Panda should be put on a Greyhound to Fresno ASAP.  Put ANYONE ELSE in the line up out there on third tonight.  I'm sick of the act and the stupid nickname that came with him.

NABO and IBA heavyweight boxing champion James “Lights Out” Toney was
embarassed in his mixed martial arts debut Saturday night against UFC
Hall of Famer Randy Couture in the octagon at UFC 118 at Boston’s TD
Garden.

Couture (19-10) immediately tossed Toney (0-1) to the mat with ease
and managed to submit the portly puglist with an arm triangle choke at
3:19 of the opening round.

Toney (72-6-3-2, 44 KOs), named Ring Magazine Fighter of the Year in
both 1991 and 2003, was a very skilled prizefighter who won titles in
multiple weight classes.

However, Toney is also a hideous physical specimen who was twice
pinched for using the steroids boldenone and stanozolol.

“Toney couldn’t have beaten Couture in his prime and he thought he

A welterweight bout pitting a 1981 "Sugar" Ray Leonard versus a 2009 "Pretty Boy" Floyd Mayweather would have been a fascinating battle of tremendous skills and contrasting styles.  

Leonard (36-3-1, 25 KOs), who captured a gold medal at the 1976 Olympics in Montreal and was the first prizefighter to earn in excess of $100 million in purses, is widely considered one of the greatest pugilists of all-time.  

"Sugar Ray," the winner of five world titles in five weight divisions, managed to trump future fellow International Hall of Fame inductees Wilfred Benitez (53-8-1, 31 KOs), Thomas "The Hitman" Hearns (61-5-1, 48 KOs), Roberto "Manos de piedra" Duran (103-16, 70 KOs) and Marvelous Marvin Hagler (62-3-2, 52 KOs) before he finally hung-up his gloves for good in March 1997.

NABO and IBA heavyweight boxing champion James “Lights Out” Toney will make his mixed martial arts debut August 28 against UFC Hall of Famer Randy Couture in the octagon at UFC 118 at Boston’s TD Garden.

Toney (72-6-3-2, 44 KOs), named Ring Magazine Fighter of the Year in both 1991 and 2003, was a very skilled prizefighter who won titles in multiple weight classes.

However, Toney is also a hideous physical specimen who was twice pinched for using the steroids boldenone and stanozolol.

“Toney couldn’t have beaten Couture in his prime and he thinks he can even compete with him now in the condition he’s in,” questioned Brad Sherwood, a trainer at Gold’s Gym in Medford.

Nevertheless, for whatever reason, UFC President Dana White has expressed confidence that Toney can flourish in the world of mixed martial arts.

IBA heavyweight boxing champion James "Lights Out" Toney called UFC heavyweight king Brock Lesnar a coward this past weekend and said he would relish a chance to fight him inside the octagon.

Lesnar (5-1), absolutely one of the greatest athletes ever, returned to action after being sidelined for a year with a draconian intestinal disorder and emerged victorious over interim UFC titlist Shane Carwin by submission in a scintillating battle July 3 at UFC 116. 

Lesnar, a legendary wrestler at the University of Minnesota who played for the Vikings as a defensive tackle during the 2004 NFL preseason, is next slated to defend his crown against Cain Velasquez in October at UFC 121.

"I like Cain Velasquez (8-0) and I think he has the ability to knock Lesnar out," said Toney, 41, a known steroid abuser who possesses a physique that resembles the lead character in Precious. "I think that fight is a toss-up. Lesnar ran away from Shane Carwin (12-1) like a girl, but then Carwin ran out of gas and quit. But, I'll fight any of them, any time anywhere. That's my motto."

Many talented pugilists have entered the squared circle over the past five years.

However, the five preeminent prizefighter's over that span of time are listed below.

1) "The Fighting Pride of the Philippines" Manny Pacquiao- Pacquiao (51-3-2, 38 KOs), the first boxer to ever capture seven world titles in seven different weight divisions, is the WBO world welterweight super champion and Ring Magazine's pound-for-pound king.

Pacquiao has triumphed in 13 consecutive bouts since he lost to Erik Morales by a unanimous decision in March 2005.

At 31 and as dominant as ever, Pacquiao was honored in January as the grandest fighter of last decade by the Boxing Writers Association of America.

“Manny deserved to be the fighter of the decade,” said Roger “Pit” Perron, 73, a respected boxing trainer from Brockton who now works with Mike and Rich Cappiello at their gym,

Russian Dmitry Pirog captured the WBO middleweight title by a fifth round knockout over Brooklyn's undefeated Danny Jacobs Saturday night at the Manadaly Events Center in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Jaccobs (20-1, 17 KOs), who hails from the Brownsville neighborhood of King's County, is an Empire State favorite and his defeat is a kick in the sack for many fans of New York City and American boxers alike

"I'm not going to complain. I just hope everyone will forgive me and keep the faith," said Jacobs, 23, whose are as produced fighter's like Mike Tyson, Riddick Bowe and Shannon Brigg . "I know I can come back and become a champ. I got caught with a shot I didn't really see. I'll be all right."

This is a bad loss for Jacobs and an enormous triumph for the 30-year-old Pirog.

The Western Australian Professional Combat Sports Commission announced last weekend it will investigate “The Green Machine” Danny Green’s first round knockout victory over “Hurricane” Paul Briggs July 21 in Perth, Australia.

 

Green (30-3, 27 KOs), who demolished faded legend Roy Jones, Jr. (54-7, 40 KOs) in 58 seconds last December, struck Briggs (26-3, 18 KOs) with a glancing and feathery left jab that curiously left the “Hurricane” on Queer Street after a measly 29 seconds of “action.”

 

Possibly even more suspicious than Green’s pathetic knockout blow was the excessive number of wagers booked to two separate betting agencies shortly before the bout began predicting an opening round knockout victory by “The Green Machine.”
