Man! He called the right winner, then the wrong winner, then at last the right winner, one David “The Coffee Boss” Booker. Elijah “Young Snipes” Terrell was ticked, and rightfully so, but then again, he was a unanimous loser according to the judges. (Fightful, however, scored the fight unanimously in Terrell’s advantage, so this was clearly a little closer than the score would indicate.)
Anyway, two points. One, “The Coffee Boss” is a hell of a nickname. Two, make sure you don’t ever make a mistake in your life, because the Internet never forgets.
