Thought about this while reading the Quartey-Forrest thread. How does this one go?
Nigel Benn vs. Jermain Taylor. Let the fun begin.
Garcia beat a dead legged Paulie who just got waxed by Shawn Porter. Nothing in that fight makes me think he'd be anything besides target practice...
Hagler's not Jones or Ali but he was versatile and did everything really well. Winky would put up a good effort early but Hagler would figure him...
A Jirov type fight was on my mind as well. I could see Olson's pace and strength winning him rounds but Toney's hard counters would take a toll on...
Agreed. Witherspoon has the power to damage Norton but he's not the kind of fighter who was able to blitz Ken and stop him. Against conventional...
I saw this posted as question to a Ring magazine columnist. He thought Olson would outwork and steamroll Toney. I'm not so sure. Olson was tough...
How does Mercer(Morrison fight version) fare against the Foreman that fought Holyfield?
Didn't Ishe Smith finally win a paper title as well?
This is a bad style match up for Katsidis. He wouldn't be able to bomb out Tackie and he damn sure can't box well enough to keep Tackie off him....
Hola Cdogg. I'm still around I just don't post very much. By the time I see the topics they've usually been debated and settled.
Agreed. Toney never seemed to fully adjust to 175 but I thought this would make for a fun scrap. Could Marvin seriously hurt or drop Toney...
Would Toney's skill and counterpunching be enough to beat Marvin Johnson or would Johnson's southpaw firepower be too much for Toney?
Great performance. Walters busted Nonito up with the jab and stopped him with a nasty counter right. This might be the end the of the road for...
Taylor is the clearly better fighter but he brings something to the table that would really bother Maidana: bodypunching. Taylor was a vicious...
How about Barkley-Van Horn? Van Horn's people that that Barkley was used up and would be a good showcase. They got a bit of a surprise.
Does Jose Luis Lopez's uppercut clinic on Yuri Boy fit the bill?
Byrd-Thunder - I know Byrd is about as popular as a turd in a punchbowl but he put on a good show. He beat up Thunder and forced the ref to stop...
And then Canelo wakes up from the Nunn induced coma that ended his night. It was a lovely dream.
Gamboa looks thick as hell. Special vitamins or just all the Vitamin Water he can drink?
Russell looked clueless and Lomachenko used movement, timing and nasty bodypunches to dismantle him. He looked green as hell tonight.
9-3 Lomachenko. He dominated Russell. The rounds Russell won were the ones Lomachenko took off.
Like I said earlier he comes across as a likeable guy and he's been fun to watch. No harm in rooting for him.
"I was never a fighter that said he wanted to be a world champion." Gary Russell Jr said that during the press conference yesterday. I hope he...
A bit of both. He's got some pop when he sets down on his shots. Russell's competition has been pretty crappy so it's hard to say how his speed...
Tua's best chance would be to catch Weaver early. I think Weaver's heavy hands and bodypunching would let him squeak it out. Weaver also had an...
Perfect call.
Azumah Nelson-Barry McGuigan Mike McCallum-Matthew Hilton
Nonito has looked shaky since Rigo beat him. He seemed gun shy last week and very uncomfortable. A couple of years ago I would have picked him no...
Groves was still wobbling in the corner after the fight was over. He was done but it looks bad that he didn't get a count.
Separate names with a comma.
