See it coming?
Just watching the replay of Trinidad v. Mayorga fight. In round 1, Mayorga dropped his hands, and dared Tito to hit him. Felix hit him square on his jaw with three straight crosses, didn't budge him at all. Roy Jones Jr. said if you can see it coming, you can take it. No #$#@ing way. I don't buy it. But this just proves that while the lighter weight class fights are more entertaining, the fighter just don't have the power. So why do people always give the pound-for-pound best fighter in the world title to these smaller fighters?

So while the lightweights don't have the power to knock out their opponents in one punch, they aren't exactly weak. Three cross punches... He might have taken them without going down, but I'm pretty sure each one hurt like a %&$#. Admittedly, I didn't see this fight, but I think people watch lightweights for technique and skill, whereas the only reason they watch the heavyweights is for the killer knockouts. Or maybe that's just me.
