I know...and agree with your take as I said. I was just commenting on the fight itself and how it might play out. It's funny.....'cause if...
Agreed.
Well said. That's absolutely true - his opponents can see everything coming, with the same angles, at the same speed. That....and how much he...
Sure - Margarito deserves it. As for fighting Paul...if he starts faster and forces Williams to smother himself and/or go backwards....Tony has...
Yup...which is why I really don't think PBF will fight Margarito. It's not an attempt to discredit PBF, it is my judgment. I don't think he'll...
I scored Williams-Margarito a dead-even draw. Would love to see a second match - would be just as intriguing - and in my opinon close - as the...
NO. :lol:
Agreed. Castillo was viewed as legit and a top lightweight...and a very difficult fight for PBF in his first bout at 135. Good to see you back,...
Why wouldn't he? He's already said it's not the end and that he will be in the ring before the end of the year. People have to get over the...
"old man pressure" :lol::lol: Agreed, btw.
Brother Joons, you are truly a believer. :lol:
Yeah...except Cotto is obviously a better boxer, and had Chico gotten hit with some of those shots.... Also, Corrales doesn't let his hands go...
Have to disagree, MTF. Hatton is not as durable, would not have the size advantage, nor have the stamina, workrate over the second half, and...
What a fight!! As stated in my prediction, I was surprised at the overwhelming amount of people picking Cotto to win - and many had him winning...
Cotto by very close decision - likely an MD/SD type of affair. It's going to be close; especially late as Margarito goes for broke. Cotto has...
I'd say to avoid RISK, not necessarily punishment.
I don't think Bute will stop Andrade....Librado's too dangerous and too hard-headed to bring out Lucien's aggression. Bute should win, but it...
:lol::lol:
:lol: My thoughts exactly when I heard about the outcome. And yeah - African fighters can be a pain to obtain footage on...but usually...
Like I said....it's rare. Yeah, I remember Carver-Salem - terrible. But still not as fulminating as Holt-Torres in terms of outcome.
I'm not giving Pavlik a hard time; just stating the obvious beyond Arthur and Winky at 160.:dunno: I know Bute-Andrade is made...I was just...
That would be a good one, and I don't know why this post is overlooked. Hell of a fight this would be as long as it lasts....though I'd pick...
Yup. And he doesn't have much time to do it. I've been saying this about Winky for years. Problem is that like everyone has said, at 160 it's...
May God rest his soul. One of my favorite lightweights of that era; I've been a fan for years and have plenty of his fights. Never in a dull...
Wow - I have watched boxing for years, and I don't think I've ever seen a headbutt land THAT precisely, right on the tip of the chin - and be that...
Spot on...I think some folks may miss the sublteties of that fight. Plus...did anyone out there really, REALLY think this was going to look like...
You're assuming his performances in recent years are due ONLY to weight....and not to physical decline. I don't think that's the case, bro....
Chandler went 15 rounds with heavy-punching Canizales and did just fine...and went rounds with solid/good punchers like Murata and Muniz. Sandoval...
What stylistic advantages favor Liston here? The jab is the only one I can think of...and given how Liston reached with it, I don't think it's...
He was actually cheered....the majority were cheering and I just watched it again. I was actually surprised.
