I don't see Morales beating Fenech either - the guy was simply relentless, an undefeated, three-division (shoulda been four) before this bout.
If the knockdown didn't occur, then Quartey isn't hurt either.
Come on Double, are you serious? He battered the guy along the ropes and knocked him down. 10-8. Then spent the next minute and a half...
I agree. I've seen the clip a million times - was just making a point for those who think Oscar deserved 10-7 because Ike was using the ropes....
Agreed. But DLH spent the last 1:00-1:30 doing absolutely nothing. And though Quartey was out on his feet, he was coming forward and throwing (if...
Yes but after beating Ike along the ropes, DLH spent the rest of the round moving his legs...and most of those movements could hardly be called...
Hell yeah. God, I miss the days of those old fantasy Nelson-Hamed threads. :laughing:
Which one is it? First or second? Boy, I'd love to see either of these guys against the feathers today. No contest.
That's an excellent point, Jake. I'll be one of those people amped up for this one but - my love for the two fighters aside - I'd be plenty pissed...
Completely inaccurate post written with a touch of hate.
Excellent analysis. I spoke to Buddy McGirt about that a year ago and he said that was the plan (well, not to get gassed at the end) but to keep...
You think Roy expected Tarver to give hima glorified sparring session? The first fight too? Magic Man forgot to stick to the script? Me thinks...
Yeah, you're right. That woulda won the fight for Tito :rolleyes: He couldn't even get close enough to do anything, man. He wasn't going to...
Agreed. Poor Kostya, he didn't even realize he was getting his ass kicked.
So the idea of winning never crossed his mind when it was clear but as soon as it got all cloudy from that Tarver right, he came to his senses?...
He did say that he wanted to prove to himself that he could go twelve and that he wasn't "going out like that." But I also think he wanted to win.
Abandon his usual style? I actually think he had the right gameplan. Try to steal some of the early rounds with shots here and there and play to...
Yes, I heard the same. After the Hanshaw fight, Jones said that he planned on staying in the gym. He was asked if he felt he could get down to 168...
I don't think Roy fought like a bitch, I think Tarver's style just offset his offense. Tarver fought even smarter the third time - Jones is a...
I think he's in deep sh*t. But he's probably thinking like the rest of us: It won't matter. Besides, I suspect Roy's gonna try to land a bomb...
Agreed but not stronger than Roy.
Tito was never cut up and I don't think he will be at 170. But more important, he won't be anywhere near as strong as Roy. Didn't he seem a little...
I don't think Tito was too idiotic or that Roy fought "cowardly." Tito Trinidad is just not gonna beat no Winky Wright. Period. And he probably...
I'm not too sure about that. Jones is a well-sculpted 175-pounder. Tito went from being a tad scrawny at 147 to a tad chubby at middle. Other than...
I'm as big a Roy fan as there is but geezus that video was embarassing. Roy's acting like an old man who just found the way to his bathroom. Good...
Joon, you better come down for this one. I wanna see Cupey collapse off the ring apron in person. Roy's scoring a double knockout on Jan. 26th:lol:
Roy will take the short end of the purse because he knows he has no choice. He was willing to take a 40-60 split to fight Calzaghe. I think, at...
:lol: Man, I don't know who's more delusional - Tito or his fans. Jan. 26th is going to be a sad, sad day for you, man. :kick:
The fight is as good as done. Jones flew up to NY in 2 hours after he heard Tito signed. Don't forget, he didn't sign to fight Ruiz either until...
Like I said, your trash talking days are over. Joony, I'll need your help carrying Carlos home after this one. I just hope he doesn't collapse on...
