I am not going to beat a dead horse (at least not too fervently), but I have trouble stopping myself from hating Tony Margarito. The guy does not...
I agree. Marquez fought an incredible fight last night, simply stylistically finding the answer to Pac. JMM always impresses me at how he slowly...
OK, this is all-time 24k verbal gold from Charlie's dad while he is being told his son needs help (with what sounds like an Russian accent...
You sir, are a decent fellow. A very fair post without excuse-making. I actually don't think Angulo looked average, as odd as that sounds. The...
In all the documentaries I've seen about Ali/Frazier, and even when those two met at more advanced ages and Ali was already in the throes of his...
I don't know.... it depends on what ingredients go into making offense "great". If you count power as a factor, you could rule out a Juan Diaz...
Think he'll convert to Islam just on the chance he will end up with one more shot at Ali?
Yep. I agree totally on the complete disregard of Kirkland's chances. This isn't Kirkland vs. Ray Leonard or vs. a 154 pound Tito. This is...
Well he has been drinking for 30 years, and dressing like a pimp. That does catch up with you. Honestly, though, it does make me a bit sad. He...
I will just have to disagree. I think predicting a 2 round KO win for Angulo is lunacy. It takes elite boxers 2-3 rounds just to figure out...
Writing off Kirkland is mildly silly. Yeah, he should be an underdog, but he is really more of a question mark than a known for this fight. Who...
Oddly as pachydermal as Lamps may seem, he is a lefty wing-nut when outside of his tuxedo. I hate these types of topics because there is always...
Has this forum been hacked by premenstrual women? What doesn't make sense about arguing context? Your dismissal of this is insulting. There are...
Cintron bugs me. I hate even talking about the guy. I was something of a fan when he was on those crappy Showtime cards (was that ShoBox back...
I was under the impression his weight was reduced by lack of spine. But that is counter-balanced by powerful legs, bred for leaping. Seriously,...
I agree with the "who knows" in principle. Meaning, other than the 2 fighters or people very close to them, we can only speculate about why...
Other than his willingness to share this information, I honestly don't see that there is much about this story that is interesting. Or...
OK, I understand the sentiment.... but can anyone here posting about Floyd beating Manny (and doing so easily, blah blah blah) tell me when the...
Fassbender is a great actor, but is too atypical to achieve superstar status. He has a more refined style... I could never see him playing the...
Well I hate to go all Vonnegut on you, but this kind of statement slays me (agree with the rest of your post though). There is no such thing as a...
Wow..... really? Did you buy the fight? I know you are familiar with Merchant and his style, so it can't be that you were surprised by Larry. I...
I thought Larry did fine for someone 80 years old and obviously slowing down tremendously. The look he gave to the camera when Floyd snapped was...
Good question. Please, give me a break Floyd-ites. You are really going to come on here and rationalize Floyd's hug-n-punch? "Oh Floyd didn't...
Ya know... there IS a difference between doing the right thing, or the "good" thing, and then doing something that isn't technically illegal but...
After seeing Morales last night, it did sort of make me re-visit memories of the old Erik, who was a fucking buzzsaw. Uncrackable chin,...
I don't see it. He doesn't say anything to the fighters, and his hand is still in the air, like just before the downward chop you see refs do to...
No. He was waiting for time from the timekeeper and NEVER said "box". I watched 3 times from every angle they had. The break had not ended, and...
It's funny how that works... everybody in the money chain loses perspective and wants a bigger cut. It happens all the time. It often starts...
Based on how Ortiz has held up mentally, and the fact that Floyd is not getting any younger, I would go out on a limb and say Ortiz will surprise...
I don't think I remember Floyd ever getting this pissed at a weigh in or any type of pre-fight conference. He gets pissed at pops, sure, but...
