It's going to be a slow posting weekend but i thought i should touch on two big events tonight. Tonight Pretty Boy Floyd is putting his belt on the line against Britain's boxing god, Ricky Hatton. Being a big fan of the "sweet science", this match up intrigues me. Floyd's speed and counters verses Hatton's brute strength and iron jaw. I see it going to a split decision in favor of Mayweather. I think in the end his speed will be too much for Hatton. I will say though (and this is not a flip flop) that i wouldn't be surprised if Hatton landed a nice one on Floyd and ended it. If it goes the whole way, it's Mayweather, if it ends in rounds, it's going to be Hatton.


Now the Heisman...what can i say? I like Tebow, he's a good QB but i don't think he deserves it. To me, there are three main criteria when assessing Heisman winners: Consistency, one big game, and losses. To be a Heisman winner, its not like the MVP trophy in any other sport. The Heisman winner is a player that is the reason his team is great and if they lose, it's because he didn't do his job (which is why it's so hard for defensive players to win it because to gauge a defensive players game is a lot more difficult then an offensive players game who has more statistical categories to rely upon). Tebow has three losses this season and even worse, they were all in conference losses.There is no doubt that his stats are eye opening to say the least but if i was to pick, it would be between Colt Brennan and Darren McFadden. Colt Brennan broke countless records (system or not) this season, his team is undefeated; he was the model of consistency so if was a purest voting, it would be Colt. McFadden had the memorable game (against LSU in that OT thriller) and amassed nearly 1800 yards, 304 carries without a single fumble albeit yes he had four losses, his Constancy was much stronger than Tebows.

To sum it up, Tebow will win but if i was a Heisman purest, Colt would win (but my personal pick is McFadden).
