Lanard Lane is putting on a bit of a show out there, but Martin Tucker is there to meet him.

Tucker's game
Lane’s obviously better, but Tucker is working the body pretty nicely, and isn’t getting run over.

Yeah. So far Tucker looks better than his record. He’s putting up a decent little fight here.

Hey it’s Eric Mangini, and Teddy isn’t harassing him.

Tucker might've stolen that round.
And as a Jet fan, I could really do without the wit and wisdom of Eric Mangini.

Oh for God’s sake. Talk about this fight and shut up about game manager quarterbacks. I already get enough with shark infested deep waters

Well this has gone solidly to Lanard Lane now.

Teddy spent the entire round calling for a knockout or knockdown. Doesn’t come. Tucker is a tough son of a gun.

Most competitive one-sided whupping I’ve seen in a while.

Well I got one judge right.....
Amusing to see a 77-75 and an 80-71 at the same fight. Talk about different views…
What the hell is Teddy going on about stopping the fight?
Great stuff there.

Teddy and Joe overreacted to a Lane flurry near the end of the seventh round. I think it had about three clean punches.

Well, the Hopkins-Jones debate presser was more believable than Tiger Woods’ apology

He was really solid from the 19th-31st holes. Used his putter effectively.

But he's not Kevin Connors.
And those Texans will go 19-0 once they re-sign Brian Russell.

Oh look it's Mangini.

Rex Ryan -AFC Championship, Eric Mangini......
Failure.
Can we stop with this joke now? I’m fine with Shaq segments…Shaq’s awesome, and Shaq’s proven himself to be good.
But Mangini is a joke.
Mangini's probably better than Shaq at this point

ESPN makes me want to commit random acts of violence.

Teddy proclaimed Porter is getting a knock out in 3-4 rounds
And then Jordan immediately hurts Porter with a right hook.

Porter is freaking so ugly to watch....
He’s basically relying on holding and punching.
It’s funny though…Jordan seems to more comfortable inside…which is very wrong.
Teddy's knockout prediction reaches phenomenal levels of inaccuracy.
Porter has landed 19 of 71 jabs.

This has uh not been, how do you say, “good.”

I find Porter struggling to be interesting. I didn’t figure this would happen until he stepped up against a contender. His size is a real problem at 154 and they can’t keep ignoring it. If he CAN make 147, he needs to start.

Teddy if you reference Jordan/Cleveland one more time…
Could you imagine a roundtable discussion of mundane events with Teddy, Manny Steward, and Larry Merchant?
