Janssen is a young Matthew Barnaby. Only good at waiving off the Refs while he is getting pummelled. His style is getting old to watch.

Cam Janssen is a joke. I know he's a little guy, but every fight he locks up and holds his head out for the entire go. Have some sack and throw some in tight. He doesn't have enough time in or respect around the league to act as cocky as he does either. I gave the win to Erskine for at least throwing punches.

i love Cam Janssen for his courage but i think he might have to rethink his fighting style. this was a long fight which is what he likes but he got completely dominated and never really got going or throwing. he might be wise to study the style of a Darren Langdon type who was much better defesively. he needs to tie up the other fighters primary weapon not do the "attempted lock out jersey jab gig" he's too short for this style and eats to many rights. god love em but change it up man.

Good win for Erskine who showed he had lots of stamina and kept throwing until the end....he never let Janssen get on track

A long, tactical battle (normal for Cam) that Erskine controlled with his superior reach,locking out Cam and landing the occaisional jersey jab. I thought Erskine won. He threw many more, controlled the bout and outlanded Janssen although he may have received the single hardest punch.
Erskines first scrap since his return from injury and Janssen's second loss in two days.

Long bout. Erskine fought this smart, kept Janssen outside and landed some good punches. No real big bombs landed on either side but Erskine definitely landed alot more.

Very long fight...no one guy dominated...they each got a couple shots in. Cam did get a nice takedown on Erskine to end the fight...should have given Erskine a haircut while he had him down on the ice!! This fight was a draw.

You won't see many longer fights. Erskine in a majority decision, landed and threw more punches.

I'm still waiting for Janssen to throw that big punch he was teeing up. Maybe he could save us all time and post on this board when he's actually ready to throw it. It was an alright fight, but it looked like it would be a lot better than it turned out to be. It was another one of these new-era defensive battles. I find them quite boring. Give me Domi and Probert or any Kordic fight anyday. Shelley's main goal seems to be to avoid being hit. Not an entertaining way to fight. It didn't help him either, Erskine was the clear winner.

another loss for Janssen. He's the most boring "tough guy" in the league to watch go.

Erskine throws more and lands more, easy winner
Posted by DrLabatomy on Feb 26, 2007 at 5:54 PM agree disagree
Janssen with short arms can't make the shots he'd like to and Erskine lays on some good rights.
Posted by crazybearfan on Feb 25, 2007 at 10:25 AM agree disagree
The hang and swing....should've switched up or pulled under
Posted by Godsy49 on Feb 25, 2007 at 9:26 AM agree disagree
Cam plays too much defense - I wish he would just throw 'em. Ersk is willing to throw.
Posted by shawn ethier on Feb 25, 2007 at 12:37 PM agree disagree
Janssen needs to throw a punch, not even close!
