BTW...I've been hearing this as well (as have quite a few from reading this thread)....not a good sign at all that Manny is in the Phillippines...
I told ya both...quit with this schtick, it's getting old. LK, stop instigating.
:lol: I'm glad someone remembers.... Gerry, Gerry, GERRY!! He's been a personal fave of mine for years....and I gave him a very good shot to...
Ok, enough. All explained. If you want to resolve more, go to PMs. Thanks for talking it out.
As for this fight.....good Lord. Tito, please, please....stay retired. The fight has some intriguing factors when you actually break it down...
That was way out of line, REED. That's an offense of the suspendable-type, and you know it. Joony, you too - knock it off.
Vazquez is going to do it this time....slow start, but begins coming on and the cumulative effect wears down Rafa... Vazquez TKO 11.
That's right, Cheo...I picked him to give Judah a VERY hard time and still consider that fight an aberration for Cosme...I expected it to go...
If that's the crux of your argument, then we agree.Peace.
Yup.
I had it 9-3; 117-111.
Agreed. Pac has a great resume across several divisions - with apparently a schedule that's just as good or greater to come...and he's not...
True...but then again, even though Tito's reign isn't the most deep in terms of opposition, he WAS for the most part fighting full-fledged...
Sure, Hops has never been the "prettiest" most aesthetically pleasing fighter in terms of textbook technique.... But the fact is he does...
Katsidis often times punches short very nicely with good hooks and digs...and if he can catch you right he can put you out.... But that said, my...
Well, like I said, the only one who brought up that comparison in this thread (read the post) was you. That holds true and that's exactly what...
Like I said, I should have been clearer on my wording. Already said that was an error. That's why at the end of that second post I said they...
Actually, it was Ortho Crusader....I agree with Zarate and Zamora as stated...and said why I didn't include Pimentel. I was, however,...
:lol: Relax, man, it happens. :doh:
:lol:
Mav - that's the point Jaws was trying to make - it was a rhetorical question, methinks.
And btw, nice editing after having checked boxrec for height/reach. :lol: Check the fight...Linares is the bigger man and punches straighter,...
What does "best" mean? Best resume/wins, best textbook skill/technique, toughest fighter, most talent, best haircut, what? Way too broad!
I dunno, bro....I see what you mean in that it was always competitive and not a "one-sided beating"... But I thought by the 9th Hopkins was...
My God you are comically sensitive when it comes to Pinoys - and Pacquiao in particular. :lol: Must you always be so confrontational? The...
Yeah, Pimentel and Olivares should both be in there, but to me, Zarate and Zamora were even harder punchers (not necessarily by a wide margin)....
No. :tease:
Larios had to fight that way, IMHO. Linares is taller (rare for Larios), longer reach, likes to box at distance and fight off the back foot...
Agreed. I thought he backed up a bit too much and could have held his ground and stayed "in the wheelhouse" more as his short punches are better...
