Awfully close. A draw I guess-disappointing. Is Godard really only 216 lbs? He fights much bigger

The fight did not rise to the quality of the combatants. Not at all.

Boogaard remembers how Godard always hands him his ass. Doesn't seem to really want to go here. Godard lands the best punches by far. DB falling on top of him while still conscious doesn't constitute a win--or at least it shouldn't.

Draw. Godard obviously slipped.

Posted by pradfords on Mar 24, 2008 at 9:10 AM agree

If they would show the other angle of this fight, it would have been shown that Boogaard did land that forst big right... QAnd all Godard did was land a jersey jab... Thats how i score this one... Win Boogaard...

Posted by trpaulson on Mar 23, 2008 at 3:50 PM agree

Draw. No real fight.

Posted by Mouseman on Mar 23, 2008 at 2:43 PM agree

Boogard landed one punch, I counted 5-7 punches landed by Godard. And yet the homers think that Boogard won the fight because Godard lost his balance???
This was a Draw morons!!!

What a downer....this had so much potential with the nice clean start.....the refs should have lined them up again!

Posted by BoogieMan0024 on Mar 23, 2008 at 9:20 PM agree

It was a quick fight but I'm gonna have to give it to Boogie. All Godard did was wipe Boogie's nose with his jersey, while Boogie actually landed some punches....

That flurry of lefts by Goddard didn't do much to Boogaard, but those last two quick lefts that Boogaard threw looked like they connected well with the last one knocking Goddard over and taking Boogey with. Without a reverse angle view I have to give this one to Boogaard.

Ya theres alot of Boogy fans on the site, and that is what we are seein in the votes a draw as both guys didnt do to much, and a slip doesnt count for a win for anyone.

Posted by Ragtop1day on Mar 23, 2008 at 8:44 PM agree

not much there

Posted by lovejoy on Mar 25, 2008 at 3:22 AM agree

very nice run at glass.... lol

Not much of a tilt, but I'm gonna give it to Boogey just because I know all of the Boogey haters are gonna come out and vote for Godard. If no one else is going to have an objective opinion, why should I. Win Boggeyman!

On a side note, I do like Godard a lot and I was really looking forward to this match up. Too bad nothing else came of it, but I'm sure there will be some sparks if they meet again in the playoffs.

Hard to see if anything landed in a short bout, couldn't tell if Godard went done due to a punch or a push, Could have been good, call it a draw.
