Tomato Cans: Margarito, Hopkins, Haye, Toney and More
I haven't done one of these "Tomato Cans" posts in a while, but I've got a lot of thoughts kicking around that I have only brief thoughts on, so what the hell. * Antonio Margarito is going to get licensed in Texas.

Tomato Cans: Friday the 13th, 2009
Please, if you have any sense at all, don't go see the Michael Bay-produced inevitable trainwreck that is the Friday the 13th "remake." Go buy the original. It's 7-10 dollars. Super hyped British prospect James DeGale will make his pro debut on February 28 in Birmingham against Vepkhia Tchilaia...
