And Luke, why are you bitching at me in another thread(Triathlete Vegas) when I am trying to help him out?
What in gods name are you talking about ? I was asking you what lines are on the printouts because when I was out there they had 2 event on the board. I was trying to figure out what was on the prinout sheet .Are you always trying to start an arguement?
what kind of futures are you talking about arent on the board ?
6 months from now lines or 2 events from now or all MMA lines?
That is your post. I am not the one looking to argue. I simply told him to go ask for a printout from an employee. It is actually quite simple. I was just trying to help the dude out.

I did the international broadcast of Saturday’s pay-per-view card with Dave Bontempo and we both thought Mora won the fight, although we weren’t surprised that there was a scoring disparity among the official judges; it was a difficult fight to score. Bontempo scored it 115-113 for Mora just as official judge Kermit Bayless did. I thought Mora won by a much wider spread, 117-111. I scored the first nine rounds for the Latin Snake and the final three rounds for Mosley. Were there earlier rounds that could have gone to Mosley? Absolutely. Rounds one, three and four could have just as easily been rounds for the 39-year-old vet. And had I scored those rounds for him my card would look like yours. However, I asked myself who was more “effective” in those rounds and I thought Mora was doing exactly what he wanted to do -- and scoring whenever he wanted to -- while Mosley was clearly frustrated and not getting off with any kind of leverage or power. In short, the first nine rounds of the fight was a Sergio Mora fight (which is why we heard so many boos from the crowd); not a Shane Mosley fight.
However, most of the ringside press scored the fight as you and official judge Lou Moret did.
RingTV.com co-editor Michael Rosenthal, The L.A. Times’ Lance Pugmire, MaxBoxing.com’s Gabe Montoya, and Fightnews.com’s Francisco Salazar all scored the bout 114-114. So you are in very good company, Bim.
David Avila, of the Riverside Press-Enterprise, scored it 115-113 for Mora, as Bontempo did.
Yahoo.com’s Kevin Iole, Robert Morales, of the L.A. Daily News, and HBO.com’s Peter Nelson scored it 115-113 for Mosley.
THE RING’s Ivan Goldman and Tim Smith, of the New York Daily News, scored the bout 1116-112 for Mosley, as official judge David Denkin did.
ESPN.com’s Dan Rafael scored it 117-111 for Mosley.
The scores were all over the place but the majority of press row either scored it a draw or had it 7-5 in rounds for either guy.
MaxBoxing boss Steve Kim had the best answer when I asked him for his score of the fight. K9 replied: “I got bored and stopped scoring it after a few rounds.”
Yeah, like where did all that shit you just posted come from? I'm not calling you out or anything. I'm just saying that people are going to want to know what you got that from.

Doug Fischer from Ring magazine. Or can be found at RingTV.com. under Dougies mailbag.
He also makes a very good point in the answer of another question. That is that as TOUGH and durable as Shane has been throughout his carreer. He is getting the look of a fighter who is about to get knocked out. It happens to the best of fighters. All of a sudden(maybe not so sudden) a nearly granite chinned fighter just gets his clock cleaned. To me, Shane looked ready to go against Floyd, and I bet Floyd by decision there...but was very worried.
It will be interesting to see who Shane is matched up with. I think a fighter like Berto could be HUGE trouble for Shane at this point in his carreer.
