I didn't ge to see Mesi-Barrett, but it sounds like I missed a decent heavyweight fight. I have to give Mesi credit though, because Barrett was no pushover on paper or from a skills standpoint.

I got home during the middle of round one of Klitschko-Johnson, and was surprised to see how quickly Vitali was coming right at Johnson. The fact that Kirk wasn't offering anything back at Vitali was his own downfall. Klitschko was able to gain confidence and take risks, and really swarmed over him to get the stoppage. Kirk never had a chance, and the fact he got traning tips for the Pillsbury Doughboy didn't help either.
