If it is out there, watch Ward fight Joey 'Bugsy' Farrell. Many years ago on ESPN. Ward stopped him in 2 after he hurt him to the body. Bugsy was...
Overall, Gatti.
Rosario would have to close distance in a fight with Arguello and he would pay for that. Arguello was sneaky about laying the jab out there for...
From a purely boxing standpoint, Floyd may end up being one loophole in the prenup away from a comeback mega fight.
I never knew that there is such a position as 'lead' stripper. And, in my youth, I spent considerable time in such places. Must not have been...
Way back in time, I thought that Marquez would beat Barrera and Morales.
It is always good to watch Joe Brown but I'm curious about Smith. I don't know where he was in his career, or if he had a hard time with the...
I think that Napoles would win. He isn't going to let Whitaker set the terms, Napoles would be pushing all the time and making Whitaker have to...
The Hurtado fight
I didn't think that Pinango beat Frankie Duarte. The Forum was a weird place when it came to how many times the house fighters got the short end...
The first Fenech v Nelson fight.
At 126, while he was very formidable, I don't think that Arguello had become Arguello yet, if that makes sense. In my mind he improved a lot at...
I am thoroughly impressed that you knew which fight it was.
This guy fought there many times. He didn't win them all but they were all fun fights. Some of you may find it interesting that he was trained for...
Barney Ross is an excellent call. I once saw Cocas Ramirez throw 37 left hooks and/or uppercuts in a row but I don't think that I would nominate...
Archie Moore had a very educated left hand.
For what it is worth, kikibalt picked Ortiz as the best bantamweight that he ever saw, and he saw Zarate, Olivares, etc...when they fought in LA....
I remember reading the interview when Chavez said that. He was asked about being the #1 p4p fighter in the world and he replied that he wasn't...
I was watching his fight with Javier Leon the other day. It's not a bad fight.
You make a good point. I've been thinking about this fight and I think that if Cuevas thinks about it, he'll lose. His best chance is to ignore...
Early in his career there were questions about Whitaker's chin, after the Mayweather fight and after Pendleton almost dropped him. He put those...
Perkins doesn't do any more than he needs to do. In some respects that is the mark of a very professional fighter; don't risk anything. But I...
That first fight, Perkins is a very solid professional fighter. He didn't take any chances, he didn't take 20 clean punches, and he won that fight...
I love you.
That's a good analogy. In the Chavez v Castillo fight, the skill level was so high and seemed so even at the beginning but Chavez took him apart....
As far as I know, there is only 2 rounds of Eddie Perkins available to watch and, to me, he looks really good. Over the years, I have heard so...
I chickened out. There were a lot of people around - it was at the fights- and I really thought that I would faint. Little Red Lopez was the only...
I had a chance to meet him 25 or 30 years ago but I was afraid that I would faint.
That is why Little Red Lopez will always be my favorite fighter. I will never be 6 years old again and I will never have a hero like that ever again.
Incidentally @George Crowcroft this is Barrera's first US fight. I was there that night; Maldonado was in his corner as his manager. [MEDIA]
