Or maybe Vargas laid a lazy jab out there before he got into the fight and got hit on the chin by a guy that was warmed up thoroughly and Vargas...
I have to go with the LA guy.
Their first fight was one of the most disappointing that I have ever seen.
At least in LA he was considered to be a very good boxer with a lot of skill. For myself, if I am looking for an example of a quality fighter just...
I saw the first fight and thought Borboa won, some place or another I have it recorded on a VHS tape. The Forum was unique in how often close...
I was at that fight.
I don't think that Norton was all that good, even though he was my favorite heavyweight in the 1970s.
That is very true. I don't believe that it would be possible, in any other division, to have your first amateur fight in January of 1967 and win...
The boxer is 47 according to Wikipedia.
Quartey was better against fighters that came to him. The way he leaned up on his left jab made it hard for him to move. But,if you come to him,...
On his record I noticed that he fought both Pat O'Connor and Rafael Rodriguez in Minneapolis. One of my closest friends was, I am certain, at both...
I was a big fan of Lopez and, in theory, he should beat Margarito decisively. But if you were a fan of Lopez, you know that it is entirely...
Not being stopped, other than on cuts, in all those fights doesn't have much to do with your chin, because your capacity to take a punch fades...
He looks to have physical ability and he doesn't suck but he doesn't know how to fight.
One of the things that I learned studying Zarate years ago...in his early fights in Mexico, they always commented on how few punches he threw,...
That's sad because I think Juan owns a gym.
They were both tall for their weights. Zarate beat at least one tall bantam but that guy didn't have the power of Trinidad and didn't box any...
I'm a big fan of both. Trinidad came into the game smoother in style and more fluid in movement. Zarate had a very front foot heavy, left hook...
I would still bet on Duran.
Honestly, I think that you guys are way over rating young George. He was very inexperienced, both in terms of years boxing and in number of rounds...
Do you think? In my mind, Lewis and Cokes were both better fighters than young George. He was big and strong but I don't find the levels of skill...
I agree with both of the above posts. In my mind, Napoles is by far the more complete package as a fighter but Ali never let away from the ring...
Pac was used to dictating the terms and used to his opponents reacting to what he decided to do. Duran wouldn't let him dart in and out, he would...
Floyd Mayweather is certainly the most savvy fighter of his era, but I'm not sure how that translates. He learned his lessons by fighting guys...
I'd be curious to see how Canelo reacts to Fullmer's style, which was very rough and unlike anything Canelo has ever seen. When Fullmer uses that...
He is managed by Churchill Management, which is bankrolled by Peter Berg and Mark Wahlberg. Their first client was Alex Saucedo, after Saucedo's...
He knows a lot of people that have been paying bribes to boxing organizations since the 70s.
He won last night; my friend is certain that the victory will get them a world ranking. Jose won some type of WBC belt. Overall my friend had a...
Arum has been a figurehead for a very long time. As far as the day to day operations at TR, his name never comes up because there are a HoF and...
Didn't TR just announce Prograis vs Redkach?
Separate names with a comma.
