Agree. A good fight to take for Khan, you cannot stay away from punchers forever. I am glad to see that he and/or his camp is confident enough...
When LaMont Peterson signed to fight Tim Bradley, I knew there was no chance of a victory. Why? Because that Peterson brother has absolutely NO...
No, he won't fight either Klitschko before the end of 2011, and possibly not ever. I was of a different opinion maybe a year ago, but Haye has...
They are ostensibly going to charge him with whatever the maximum charge is that could fit his action(s). However, based on the fact that he has...
Things like this make me want to go against my general principles of allowing adults to be idiots and suffer the consequences. In cases like...
I want fighters to spew insensitive garbage. Their profession is wrapping their hands up so they don't hurt their fingers while they collide...
Bullshit. Obviously the decision is reprehensible. But I just love the "government"-style justification. So they got the application and in...
I agree. These details get lost over time. And even if someone notices the catch weight 20 years from now, only the long-term fan will have any...
Felix Trinidad was a fighter who changed continuously throughout his career. For the beginning years, he changed for the better. He has always...
I didn't like Dawson repeating over and over that he didn't complain "not one time" about the head butts and/or holding, yet there he was...
Look, I am glad that historically in severe cases of rulebreaking the other states have honored the penalties levied by a single state commission....
It's always a little goofy to read through "robbery" threads where people agree, but then state that they could have seen it as a draw or a 7-5...
The last I heard before they announced Pac/Marg was that Manny was in talks with Cotto as well about a rematch. I suppose you could come up with...
You are conflating the current issue of Floyd Mayweather apparently taking another hiatus from boxing and the drug testing issue. They are not...
This is a good post. I think what makes Floyd such a frustrating and unlikeable figure is that his psyche is something of a bizarre...
I don't think it was a ploy. And I think that Mayweather would actually have signed the fight when the initial negotiations were going on had...
Bradley is a throwback fighter for real, and I would love to see him face just about anyone at 140, including Pac. I've been a fan of his for a...
An article on this made CNN/SI which is somewhat uncommon for boxing fare:...
Well, unless he fights Floyd Mayweather, we may never know. But I do feel reassured to some extent knowing that with all this experience...
I suppose it depends on what you feel is just. For me, secretly loading your gloves with something akin to plaster in order to try and brutalize...
This is the kind of rare gem that makes me feel a little better about the sport of boxing. So many things occur which seem to constantly fortify...
This is the bottom line. If the numbers for Klitschko mis-matches are down, then why not replace them with a lower weight matchup that will do...
Based on what I have been reading and seeing in the media, this round of negotiations has a bit of a different tone. I think both Floyd and Manny...
Not being privy to the inner bowels of the negotiation, I don't know for sure what has been accepted by either camp. So it is hard to say...
Yeah, what shocked me most about this fight (pre-fight anyway) was how many people picked Foreman to win. In another thread I said that as long...
Well.. if what is being reported is true and accurate, then I would say that David Haye's biggest enemy right now is himself. Everyone knows he...
Cotto was once an excellent stalker of "boxers". He cuts off the ring nicely, and has the ability to use his footwork to get in position to...
Well...yes. You made some points about the Klits not being as statistically unusual as Manny Pacquiao, and this is true from a punch-stat sort of...
Meh. Isn't it fair to say that the most dominant, standout, unique, and historically unprecedented athletes are going to be the ones with the...
This is not complicated. The more time someone has where they are assured no drug testing, the more effective their ability to impact their...
