I don't know too much about Carkner, but have noticed him yapping during and after fights. Don't like it. He needs to be schooled. Slight! edge to Thornton

I calld it a draw. Good strategic fighting. Thornton is one of the smartest fighters around.

Clear draw. ANyone that sees a clear win here is a bit blind and a homer!

i say draw, even the bruins announcers acknowledge the better punches were from Carkner, he went too hard at the beginning and got tired out though, Thornton ties people up very well to throw his punches though, a vet fighter.

hal29,

1. "carkner comes over the top and thronton takes one on the jaw"
2. "carkner gets the hard right in"
3. "Thornton takes one accross the shnoze"

The best calls for Thornton were

1. "Thornton straight left"
2. "(Thornton) jams him underneith"

That's using the NESN feed, CBC called it even better for Carkner, I said it was a draw, but you are probably right, Boston has never lost a fight.

Shout out bruiseyoureye and mcb... which one of you is the "man" in your relationship, and which one "bites the pillow"? Maybe you just take turns because its obvious that you girls are sharing morre than just completely assinine, warped opinions regarding any fights involving a Bruin... btw Thorton wins this fight, but it was a close one...

Both players were pretty much even exept for Thornton getting a couple better punches in. Win to Thornton in a close fight.
