Downie is such a puss. Ruutu gets the win here.

How can any of you morons vote draw or in favor of Downie. Downie the girlscout brownie gave up, he ran away, that is called forfeit. At the end of a war, the side that stops fighting . . . uh loses! This site is really going down the crapper fast.

Downie was in over his head.. I guess when the guy's looking at you it's harder to cheap shot him. JR wins it 10-8.

They did it well.
A loong fight but not great.
Downie landed a good punches in the end but then runs away.
A draw.

As a Flyers fan, i'm not happy when fighter pulls away like Downie did.
He did pretty good for being the smaller guy right till the end when he bailed. I'm giving it a draw. It could have been a win for Downie if he finished.

Downie is a punk and a coward. Standard Flyer crap.
Ruutu was about to decapitate him.

God i hate downie more and more everytime i see this bag of shiite play. skated away cause the poor baby was a wittle tired! or was it he was getting his ass handed to him. I cannot wait until Colton Orr gets his revenge against this coward for going after Fedor Tyutin.

I went into this saying, "Okay, try to be fair to Downey". C'mon! If Flyer fans saw someone on another team just skate away from his opponent they would be screaming "PU$$Y"! Unbelievable. As far as the fight goes, I thought it was Ruutu right up until the end, but Downie got some late blows in so I said a draw. How some of you say it's a clear win Downie, well, what are you watching?

Good fight between 2 of the biggest pukes in the league.

The announcers are AWFUL. Homer doesn't even quite describe them, more like slurpers would be better.

Anyway, good fight, both got some good shots in and Downie skates away which was kind of funny actually.

hillarious. downie at the end finally realized that his visor had come off for the first time since he came out of his mother's womb, and then suddenly turned and skated off from the fight to go find it. puke.

Slight edge to Ruutu because he caught Downie with a solid right that stunned him pretty good midway through the fight, and then Ruutu landed a good left which had Downie on the defensive and tired. However, as the fight went on, Downie made a good comeback and did land two or three good shots at the end, but to just walk away from the fight like he did...YGBSM!! Downie needs to lose the visor...yesterday!!

Another fight for Downie with the visor, at least this time it was removed. The late flurry by Downie doesn't erase the work by Rutuu early, especailly since Downie decided to pull away. Not a great fight.
