ESPN.com, Tue, 17 Nov 2009
You're back with the Page 2 Power Rankings! Our formula combines the results of two surveys: a human poll concocted by ESPN Page 2's Gregory Hardy; and a scientifically calibrated poll generated by computer analysis.

By Paula Duffy, Examiner.com, Tue, 17 Nov 2009
I think HBO is missing a great opportunity. They should have a wrap-up episode of its docu-series, "24/7". Who doesn't want to see how the boxers spent their time after they left the ring?

By Robert Przybylo, NewsOK.com, Tue, 17 Nov 2009
I like to think I’m not naive. I get it, sometimes the best things in boxing – the most logical things – don’t ever actually happen.
If it did, Oscar De La Hoya and Felix Trinidad would have had a rematch in 2000. Roy Jones Jr. and Bernard Hopkins would have met in 2002. T Read Full Story >>> One More Round With Mark Lyons: Pacquiao Smashes Cotto, Kessler vs Ward...
