I'm watching the NASCAR Fontana race and I never thought I'd hear "Los Angeles" by X on their broadcast. Billy Zoom, but of course.

Miguel Cotto beat "Chop Chop" Corley in a slugfest on HBO boxing last night. It was a raucous Puerto Rican crowd with low blows landed by both guys. Corley had Cotto out on his feet in round 3, but couldn't deliver any further damage. "Chop Chop" was probably going to lose, but the hometown ref stepped in and called it near the end of the fifth round. Merchant called it an "absolute disgrace".
