This is all very, very incorrect. I don't have the rules in front of me, but here is everything that went wrong with the end of the fight: -The...
Now we don't have to worry at all about missing it as the fight is off. Castillo was given two hours to shed the weight, instead grabbed lunch....
Castillo is beyond shot, the fight is irrelevant AND his missed weight (yet again). Not sure how any of that equates to warranting HBO coverage,...
FWIW, most of the fighters looked chiseled, while Morales and Jose Luis Castillo (who was also 2 1/2 lb overweight for his u/c fight v. Jose...
Damn, Garcia's last eight bouts have been televised. I know he's not a household name, but stunned to hear boxing junkies claim to have yet to see...
I thought both fights were correctly scored. You can perhaps make a case for Molina in the 1st fight, but I thought JCC Jr deserved to win the...
But it's impressive that he fought on that level on the heels of fighting Lara to draw three months prior. It absolutely sucks that he hasn't...
Molina has a granite chin, but more importantly a knack for not getting hit flush very often even though he's seemingly always within opponent's...
Fight was never formally announced. In fact, according to Chavez side they hadn't even yet discussed financial terms.
Unfortunately for you, public demand (read: ratings) suggest otherwise. Chavez and Saul Alvarez can be criticized for their level of opposition,...
I'm sure they did. HBO has never been wise with its money. There is also a difference, though, between HBO securing exclusive rights and just...
Tripleheader. Main Events wheeled and dealed to have Adamek-Aguilera added last minute.
They're also airing "Fight Night 36: Zab Judah" on Wednesday. Looking forward to that. Not sure if your post was serious or meant as...
Incorrect on that part. The Klitschkos already have a lucrative TV deal overseas. In fact, with the exception of the Haye fight, HBO spends FAR...
Nope, first one scheduled was Morales-Garcia/Kirkland-Molina, but was postponed to this weekend. 2/4 Main Event Chavez Jr-Rubio In terms of...
I agree it was a shit decision. I had it closer than you - I think 115-112 for Proksa, but the fact is that he had a panic attack the moment he...
:bears:
Incorrect, Martinez was up by 4 (105-101) on two cards but only after the 10-7 11th round. It was even on Julie Lederman's card (103-103), which...
I'm not all that high on Brook but she should be able to handle Hatton. Brook via UD, 118-110ish Martinez by late KO over Macklin.
I honestly couldn't disagree more. Cotto was a monumental step up in class at the time for Paulie, whose resume was paper thin. All he proved in...
They tried to interview him but Ottke's after-party had already begun and the bouncers didn't allow media in the room
Rest in pieces. Seemed like he was a far more competent judge than he was a referee.
agREED. I've always said as much, as well as Gamboa and Cotto.
Someone, anyone at Top Rank or PR Best Boxing could've pulled the plug on that interview at any time. Grey has every right to challenge a comment...
DLH, Hatton, Mosley, Marquez and now the IRS... Manny constantly chasing Floyd's leftovers.
Salido by late TKO, agREED w/ thread starter
Paul Williams was still at welterweight at the time. True, he split two fights w/ Carlos Quintana, but still had the win over Margarito less than...
How can you possibly compare Dawson/Hopkins to Peterson/Khan? Peterson/Khan went all 12 rounds and was scored by three judges. The referee's...
First off, it's NOT true. Second, if it were, why would Khan deserve all of the hate he gets, as opposed to... the WBA?
It's a bullshit story that began with Khan as the source. Never happened, and the WBA shut it down the moment the bullshit news leaked out from...
