Wow Ference should never drop the gloves again.He got BEAT by Sid the Kid.Hey sledneck this other guys post just proves how stupid some people are.If I am Crosby's coach I sit him down and tell him never to do that again.As for the idiots that think he should do it more.Go watch WWE.

for two visored players it did start spontaneously. good for sid, but take care of those hands and let malone, laraque and roberts chuck the knickles. i wonder if don cherry will mention crosby NOW.

Not a bad fight for his first fight.

All you moron who are complaining about Crosby wearing a visor during the fight clearly didn't even watch the game. They were BOTH wear visors at the start of the fight. Ference lost his when Crosby locked up and took control of him. Don't believe me? Watch the replay of the fight in this video.

So stop bashing Crosby because your team can't contain him.

About time he dropped the gloves to make up for all his whining.
Posted by jthesq on Dec 22, 2007 at 9:00 PM agree disagree
Well now I have seen everything, Sid the Kid in a fight? Unfortunately he should stick to passing and shooting, though I give him props for not being pushed around!

Who the hell would say crosby won that!?!? It was a clear draw and u crosby fans are just kissin his ass. i do giv crosby credit for droppin the gloves but he didnt win. they both landed clean punches and ference got the takedown. draw.

How are people pretending to not notice that Ference started off wearing a helmet with a visor and the fight started so quickly that neither of them could take off gloves or buckets?

The same people that criticize Laraque for always ending with the take down are saying that Ference won with it.

Crosby threw/landed more punches and bloodied up an opponent of equal size and they both started with helmets AND visors.

sid may whine and fall, but i was so glad to see him finally drop the gloves and no one ran over to save him. good job against a pretty tough guy sid.

Way better punches thrown by Crosby. He drops the gloves, get off the helmet and throws like 4 or 5 rights. The blood is a clear win for Crosby, but
Ference redeems himself with a good take down.

Is that really sidney crosby?
lol

I'm surprised this type of fight doesn't break out more often when one player checks another. Crosby got body slammed but also messed up Ference's face. Draw.

Cut Ference? Nice! Similar to what the Flamers did.

Crosby for the win.

Nice fight for Sid.

Way to go, Sidney. Visor v visor, and he came out on top. Way more respect for the guy now.
