Carmen Basilio v Sugar Ray Robinson 1 Thanks to @Ring Leader for the headsup - I saw this on Daily Motion. So happy that this is the full fight....
I watched the Saldivar-Ramos fight recently and that performance from Saldivar is up there with Olivares' destruction of Lionel Rose, Napoles'...
Yep, completely agree. When you're underrated in that group, you're properly underrated but I wondered if it had anything to do with him being a...
Carmen Basilio v Gil Turner Excellent and very competitive fight - that competitiveness is not reflected in my scorecard, though. The judges in...
Yeah, that's pretty much my analysis. Graham closed the gap over the last third but he gave up too big a lead. There were some tight rounds in...
I think it's a close run thing between Kalambay's loss to Nunn and Spink's loss to Tyson on that one.
Kid Gavilan v Billy Graham 3 That was not an easy fight to score but I think Gavilan won and don't feel that Graham got jobbed at all here. It...
Francisco Vargas v Orlando Salido Wow. This was just an unrelenting brawl with both fighters having their moments to shine but neither buckling...
Apologies for those of you who frequent ESB as well as here but I'll probably be posting my cards on both sites - at least for now. Might cherry...
Good fight. Watched it after you posted about it.
Yeah, he's excellent. As is Flea, of course. I'll start pulling my weight in the posting department soon - the last two weeks have been crazy busy...
Frank The Animal Fletcher - workrate.

Nope - that's one I clearly need to watch by the sounds of it.
I have seen most of them but a few I've not yet. McKinney-Ncita 1 is absolutely great - love that fight.
Need to see some of these.
Subject to some revision but these are my personal faves: 1. Wilfedo Gomez v Lupe Pintor (1982) 2. Israel Vasquez v Rafael Marquez 3 (2008) 3....
Watched another very decent one last night, George: Loris Stecca v Leo Cruz (WBA super bantamweight title, 1984).
And the Burger King one, of course!
To be honest, I haven't seen much of Smith but as a 6 '3 super middle with an 8 inch reach advantage over Canelo, he's freakishly big and rangey....
The first question in a post-fight interview usually get interrupted with a long list of shout outs that the winning fighter feels compelled to...
Such a brilliant fight. It's in my own personal top 20.
