Creed vs. Drago II

Not exactly. It's Barrett v. Valuev tonight on HBO. And, OK, I concede that the 330-lb. Nikolai Valuev is a lumbering oaf compared to that juiced-up butterfly/bee Ivan Drago.

But what the fuck is the 229-lb. Monte Barrett thinking? He's giving away almost a foot in height and more than 100 lbs. Anything short of Barrett's death will be a victory for the American. Good luck, little man.

Creed vs. Drago I dubbed into Italian here. Thankfully, James Brown's electrifying and sweaty performance, and Creed's trainer's long "Nooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!" as his dying fighter falls to the canvas are still in English.
