If you ordered one boxing DVD tomorrow, what would it be?

You've been given a gift certificate from your favorite DVD seller for one fight. Which would you choose? Tomorrow? The fight has to be available on film - this isn't a chance to grab fights that nobody's seen.

If someone asked me right now, I'd have to say:

SRL/Mayweather

I hear people talk about this fight all the time. And having seen many of SRL's fights, and knowing Mayweather Sr. from 24/7, I think it would be compelling to watch, especially if the film were good quality and/or there were some footage leading up to the actual fight.

 

Who still buys DVDs? Get with the times man

 

I think you can find SRL/Mayweather on youtube

 

Sorry. I like to watch fights in continuous motion, not in 30 second spurts. And yes, I have the fastest connection possible. News for those claiming to be up on the times: online video is still shit.

 

Apparently Roy Sr. has tapes of Jr. and Ray Leonard sparring.

I'd like to see that.

 

I plan on ordering Eusebio Pedroza vs Patrick Ford pretty soon.

 

Hard to pass up something involving either Greb or Langford.

 

Pretty good fight, actually

Ford did better against Sanchez

 

I'd want a compilation of Margarito's subtle defensive brilliance... eat your heart out, Miguel Canto, THIS was the greatest Mexican defensive specialist

 

From what Ive heard, its a masterclass from Pedroza. Is that true?

 

it is one of his better performances for sure, but Ford was tough, man, he took a beating

 

I was watching Pedroza-Laporte last night. Hadnt watched it in a few years. What a dirty sonuvabitch he was , but he really gave Laporte quite a beating to the body.... as well as the ball sack .

Also watched Sanchez-Nelson last night for the first time in a few yrs. DAMN what an awesome fight! Great performance by both, but Sanchez really put on a counter punching clinic that no one really mentions about this fight.

 

He was dirty as fuck!!! He must hit Juan in the balls 40 times in that fight! And again, per usual, Laporte has some success early and then starts trying to decapitate the guy with one perfect shot and stops throwing, Pedroza starts throwing a lot and in the end... another decision loss for LaPorte in a fight where he was doing real well when he stuck to the gameplan

Sanchez/Nelson is a great fight and Sanchez was masterful, especially in the second half... so many clean right hands... he's got to be one fo the greatest counterpunchers of all time

 

Agreed. Sanchez was really awesome. I think he woulda beaten the crap outta Morales, and MAB. Marquez woulda been his toughest Mexican matchup.

 

I think he would have had the easiest time with Morales, MAB was pretty slick himself and had a terrific jab, I think Sanchez would have more trouble with him than you do, I agree Marquez, a fellow counter puncher and technician, would present the most difficult assignment and probably the most boring fight

 

I think Marquez might have a shot if its a tactical chessmatch. In a fire fight I'd DEFINITELY take Sanchez, because Marquez couldnt dent Sal's granite chin, whereas Sanchez could definitely hurt Marquez.

 

Definitely, Sanchez was very tough ... and sometimes a firefight can erupt when you least expect it

 

That might've been Pedroza at his best. He looked really sharp in that fight.

</P>

and you have to figure Ford was at least a quality fighter since he gave Sanchez quite a bit of toruble

 

Lets be honest, a guy like Ford would probably be top 10 p4p right now.:Steve-Dave/MMA:

 

Has to actually be available.

 

Right, sorry --- I misread.

 

Then don't watch anything involving a Mayweather.

 

You're one of the best posters here man, no doubt...but what's with this kinda stuff? Greb or Langford?

 

I think he'd say because both guys are legends and there's no footage of them.

 

I'm not talking about online video. I can get any fight in premium quality whenever I want. Get with the times Doub.

 

I hear most videos from movies to sports are shared on the internet using something called "torrents". Not sure if it's just a rumor though.

If there was some form of utility on the internet to perform searches for things i would personally try using a word such as i don't know ... boxing?

Maybe even combine it with the afformentioned share format thingy?

That would be awesome if it could be done.

 

Whiskey...I imagine you to be alot like Robn Williams' character in "Mrs DOubtfire". You know a man that could never be serious even for a second...to the point where his wife gets sick of him and leaves him for a normal dude. :giggle:

 

dude, no offense, but you've shipped me copies of stuff you've gotten off, "torrents," and it's absolute shit.

 

It just depends on the quality of the original recording. It has nothing to do with torrents. You can get stuff in high def now as well, but obviously not before the technology was even invented.
