Good one.
So you're saying Norris would take it easy on him?
I think this fight (the rematch with Rob Villemain) may have represented his peak as a MW. Villemain was a tough customer coming off official...
Exactly how I've always seen it.
That, and I don't trust Mich against big punchers.
Dick Tiger and Rocky Rivero.
I disagree with Liles... I think he was fairly good, but squandered what talent he had against nobodies until he showed his age against Mitchell....
That reason being 3 spots higher in the draft.
Lewis fought a switch-hitter once early in his career, but IDK if he ever fought a pure southpaw. Conversely, Wlad had at least 7 fights (just...
I see it being fundamentally the same - Eubank can't match Calzaghe's workrate and Joe wins a UD.
This is basically the story of every Williams MM.
I always felt Gerry Cooney was shielded too much on his way to a megafight title shot and hadn't acquired the range of experience needed to be...
Cotto and Gerry Cooney were converted southpaws as well. I remember commentators in one of Tyson's early fights mentioning that he was a...
He was a natural right-hander who found himself more comfortable fighting southpaw. Same with Moorer I believe.
My attempt: EDIT: I forgot about Elorde, so I revised my list. 1. Pac 2. Whitaker 3. Hagler 4. Flowers 5. Brouillard 6. Tendler 7. Saldivar 8....
Griffith-Rodriguez I The first in a legendary quadrilogy that's as (in)famous for its display of skill as it is for the controversy surrounding...
Basically the way I see it, except I think Gavi probably squeezes out an SD.
I remember thinking Canizales won as well, but I haven't watched that fight in a number of years.
It feels like all their names are anagrams of one another.
I think Nunn follows through on what Herol started. Jackson was never fully the same after his retina surgery (post-Norris) IMO.
I don't think Conteh can outbox Hearns (who could??)... I think he either gets decisively outboxed, or finds a way to pull it out late like SRL did.
Agreed with the consensus - Pac outboxes Simon and wins either a wide UD or late stoppage.
I used to order fights by mail all the time, but I got fed up when whenever I'd order a fight, it would show up on YT a few days later. I have to...
Galindez needed an hour at the weigh-in to make weight, and he looked weary after just 5 rounds. I think a lot of just decent LHWs would've had a...
A lot of points systems were wonky prior to the implementation of today's 10-point system. I know some states used a 5-point system that granted...
In that case, I think it's definitely a case of regional bias. Most people arguing for Haye probably don't know and/or care who Qawi even was.
I haven't watched either fight in a while, but I remember thinking Dorsey was clearly robbed in the 1st, while the 2nd was genuinely close after...
Off topic, but these "ghost boxing" videos need to be done more often.
Raiders have been officially eliminated from playoff contention. Arizona's upset loss opens the door for Chicago to sneak into the playoffs....
I remember there being talk of a rematch if Phillips beat Sharmba Mitchell, but Mitchell got the decision and the eventual shot instead.
Separate names with a comma.
