Hey poster # 2 your not Tammy Wynette.
What about Jimmy Lange vs Kelly Pavlick.
wouldn't go two rounds. Lange couldn't take Joey Gilbert's shots, how's he going to take Pavliks? Child please!
here somebody goes ,Sigmon VS Lange.
One is afraid and the other is glad of it.
cujo get off her and quit trying to get fights for yourself! Lange is too much for you son. Face the facts, pavlik let it go a few rounds, nicklow beat that ass and lange though he isnt much would tear you a new ass!
You need to realize the difference between being a world class fighter (Pavlik) and a local fighter with a good record (Sigmon). Sigmon was game and that was expected but the fight wasn't competitive. Lange would also get destroyed by Pavlik. These guys are local ticket sellers! Pavlik was once a top five pound for pound fighter.
You name me one of these local guys that would have taken the shots Sigmon took and hung in there? And he would have made it through if they didn't stop it. Give this guy credit. He didn't win a round but he did his absolute best. He was prepared, he was in great shape, and he tried to win. And what more can you ask of anyone who participates at anything they do? Ask yourself, do you do your absolute best at your job? If you are honest with yourself, the answer in most cases is no. Sigmon did his absolute best! Did you really expect him to win? That would have been like the Batlimore Ravens losing to a little league football team. The man did his best, didn't quit, and showed TRUE heart and toughness. You have to respect that.
Respecting someone for being tough only goes so far. When someone is claiming to give a former world champion a run for his money and/or be candidate for fight of the year and basically looks like he was an amateur, Respect goes nowhere and you have to call it as you see it. Cujo bought off his fights to get his record and now everyone who didnt previously know how bad he was now knows. He better go back to the drawing board and see if this thing called boxing is truly what he wants. I wouldnt want to be in his position- built up a good record off someone else's dollar, record is to good to get more bums to fight so he has to fight from here on out- kinda scary when this guy could get hit by a shitty diaper thrown by a two year old.
So he's tough,big deal.
Alot of football players are tough.Rugby players are tough.
Hockey players are tough.
Is that al he has to celebrate about?
It takes alot more than toughnes to be sucessful in the sport of boxing
The man is talented in some ways but lets face it he's never going to win anything big as almost nobody else in the area will either.

Over half the commeters who have commented has their head up their asses and talking with a mouth full of shit.
They are just saying stuff in hopes that scott, will let it bother him all they done when down grading scott, with their useless comments is waste space and their comments show they do not have respect for their self or anyone els.
Scott, was very well able to finish out the fight if it had not been stoped he proved to everyone what he told them he was gonna prove and that is that he could take any punch pavlik, hit him with and he done so he also proved he had the heart it takes and he also proved he could go every round with him.
I bet none of you who have made comments here have ever steped in a ring to box so how about stoping the down grading of scott, untill you have steped in a ring yourself and see what it takes to do just that.
Scott has talent that will carry him along ways.
It is easy to set on your ass and down scott, when you aint the one having to step into the ring to fight the battles as said best thing to do is give the man respect cause he done something that none of you can do and that is a fact.
you are probably scott's girlfriend. Come on now, scott lost and will continue to lose at any level above a c class fighter. Facts are facts.
Cuju can't box. He couldnt even win one of those Tough Guy competitions because he can't throw a punch. I fault Hensley for that, not getting Cuju the fundamentals instruction he needed in his formative years. Cuju pushes/slaps all his punches. Never threw a single good one in tfe Pavlik fight which is an embarrassment in and of itself. Tough aint enough.
Cuju is chubby chaser
Why are there so many Jimmy Lange Haters? I think Pavlick vs Lange would be great. Winner moves on. Loser retires? I think it would for sure shut up the haters that say he has never fought anybody.
Lange has fought alot of people with great records but the problem is they were all paid off
unless they knocked him out.
The chase Shields fight should have been stopped. Lange suffered brain damage from that fight and was incapacitated for weeks afterwords.
People don't hate Lange they hate all the deceit and lies that go along with the smoke and Johnny Cash music.It is so obvious to even us casual fight fans that his fights have been pre arranged
for him to win them.
do you have medical records that prove Lange has brain damage? I have talked to him many times after the Shields bout and he is fine.
come on man give Sigmon his due and let him recover. he made it through round 7 with pavlik. tough guy. but he did it as a punching bag with his eyes closed swinging blindly, holding on to pavlik for dear life from round 1 on. and he would have gone to the mat in round 8, the rapid blood loss in round 7 was epic and extroardinarily dangerous--or suffered serious brain damage. Its cool to have the attitude that your gonna go out like rambo, death or no, but it is irresponsible to any family memebers he may have. the sigmon method is pure dumb testosterone.
someone really touched a nerve when they said Lange had brain damage.
I disagree with you when you say he's fine.
He is not Fine
All I'm asking for is the proof that you have that says he has brain damage. My email is on here -- just send it along.
will this no talent bum go away now?, what a pathetic performance,kelly pavlik took more punishment hitting the heavy bag!
he is a club fighter that should be fighting at high schools in backwoods virginia, he has no business fighting in B level events, let alone A level events. THE GUY IS A NO TALENT, NO CLASS, NO POWER BUM!
