Great stuff, pal. I agree that they're all different fighters, but I felt like that branch of Boxer-Puncher without the power was a good way to...
Duran beats him. Sure, competitive all the way through, but it's a clear win for Duran. I don't doubt that Chavez would be biting Duran's feints,...
Wilder is the obvious mention IMO.
Who wins? Should be a good scrap.
I agree, Tin. Just building on the point, I'd like to add that quite a few guys like that around the 50s, 60s & 70s. I've always thought that...
Fair enough, I did exaggerate.
Sure. I find all overrated and underrated, depending on who you talk to. Especially in certain aspects. For example, Morales' defence and skills...
Who wins this war? I take the Frog Puncher.
I think Lujan was honestly just much better. He could pick him apart like he did Zamora, or he could fight on the front foot like he did vs Isogami.
I have indeed. I know Me and Tin use this comparison quite a bit, but I think he's solidly on the level of Marquez, Barrera & Morales. Wins over...
I like to do it when I'm on the bath. It makes me hard. "Ugh go on son.... Tell me all about the 30s bantamweight scene!"
I think he was like a bantamweight Charley Scott, although obviously much better than Scott. I love how much leverage he gets on that left hook...
You haven't seen the Marcel fight? It's really good IMO. Definitely worth a watch. Cruz showed his explosiveness. And Villaflor I & II. One...
TBH, I'd probably pick three guys to beat Khaosai. Maybe four or five on a good day. It depends on how I'm feeling about Donaire and Inoue....
Outside of this being a technically perfect chess-match with ATG ring IQ shown from both men, with absolutely zero chance of a war breaking out...
How's that for Obscure?
Who wins this one? Can't imagine too many have thought about this one.
I honestly think that's because he's British. I love are lads as much as the next man, but we do overrate them. Lewis gets quite a bit of acclaim...
Thanks man. :D I'll spread them a bit wider, just incase anyone else wants a go. lol
Wanking over LHW Porn.
I think Flea is about 32. I seem to remember him saying that DLH-Mayeather was on his 18th birthday or something. What does that have to do with...
I'll take Esto. I think Rosario's style was fundamentally quite flawed. He didn't like having to chase a fighter because he didn't have the...
If you want to throw a curve ball in there, I'd say message Henry Hank. He's absolutely fucking mental, but he's honest to God one of the best...
I actually have an inside story from Matthew Hatton about a guy who started on Matt over Facebook and actually met up to fight him at the gym.
Bad little muthafucker. Brilliant skills and quite possibly the best 115 pounder ever. I think Roman always beats him, though. Unbelievable...
Speaking of Bujia, @Tin_Ribs. He'd go out in a storm in this thread, with his love for early days LWs. Man sure knew his shit when it came to...
Do tell fellas
I think he lacked all-round Flair. Most elites had that little something which made them notable, and something you'd remember. Sturm, while...
Jack Britton is a top three/five welterweight for me, yet barely anyone mentions him (probably due to the lack of footage). He started off as a...
Great match up. For me, this is akin to a 147 Lee-Sibson/Gonzalez-Vazquez type fight where both go down and get up and everyone is on the edge of...
