"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

Who wins guys? Could be another very very close fight.

I think it really depends which Judah shows up, a very ready Judah or a skinny, underpreared Judah, much as he was for his last couple.

I will say Judah comes in prepared (although weight in pics will be very helpful in determining this), and takes a very close decision, possibly a split decision.

Thoughts?
 

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

Judah wins, awesome! I read somewhere that Judah only earned $100,000, to Spinks $1.2 million! If that is true, that is cheap! Judah has some HUGE fights ahead of him now, possibly a rematch with Tszyu for the undisputed welter title. Or maybe a fight with Oscar De La Hoya! Either way, Zab will be crushed IMHO. Just doesnt have the whiskers!

The real fight thats going to be tough to call this year is Trinidad vs Winky.....



I gotta go with Tito though.
IMHO, that is one of the easiest fights to pick I have ever seen.

Tito will win that fight, most likely by KO. Winky has no lateral movement, nuff said.
 

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

How could you say this is an easy fight to predict?

Both of these boxers are superstars. I am probably going to pick Tito by KO because of his power. But Winky has been in there with Fernando Vargas, and Shane Mosley. He definitely can take a punch. I do think Tito might hit a littler harder than these guys, so thats why I can see the KO happening.

But to say this is easy come on..... This fight could go either way.

Winky is quick and in tremendous shape. If he is able to box Tito for 12 rounds, I can see him winning a decision.

Winky is fast, but no faster than Tito. Winky has a weak left jab, that will not affect Tito.

Tito hits a LOT harder than both Vargas and Mosley. Tito nearly took Vargas head off in their fight. Mosley was in his 4th division, Tito would have blown Mosley away as well. Not to mention, we have never seen Winky at Middle yet (although I dont think this will be a factor).

Why do I say it is easy to predict?

Who has beaten Tito? IMHO I think DLH did and we all know BHOP did. What did both these men do, both used lateral movement and superior speed and combination punching. Winky has very very poor lateral movement. He has tired in fights, and we all know Tito is a machine when it comes to fighting hard down the stretch. Winky has a solid and tight defence, but Tito will definately peirce it, especfially considering Winky will be standing right there infront of him all night long (and lets not kid ourselves, that jab is not going to push Tito off like it did Mosley).

Tito has faced several southpaws, so that is not a problem for him. Mosley himself has said he doesnt handle southpaws well. Tito has KOd every single southpaw he has faced.

But basically, styles make fights, and a stationary target is MADE for Tito. And in every single Winky fight, he has never used much lateral movement.

Wait and see, you should have put your money on Tito like I said!
