There are a whole lot of fights in which the fighters involved were trained for the fight by people other than the guy you see in the ring. One in...
If these two fought it would become the newest, bestest example of what a boxing lesson looks like.
Lamar Odom played basketball, right? Even basketball players know that basketball players can't fight.
Salvador Sanchez wasn't that much better than Ruben Castillo when they fought, though Ruben was a very good fighter.
it used to be left hook against a southpaw. The idea was to move right and put him in a position where he had to throw his left hand and then...
Froch would step forward with his right foot and square up when he threw a right hand. George Groves timed that and made him pay for it. I expect...
I first became aware of Chavez when he fought Adrian Arreola. Adrian was a good fighter; you can boxrec him and come to other conclusions but,...
The skill level in the ring that night was off the charts. They were both soooooo fast and soooooo sharp. It was beautiful to watch.
What would you pay to watch them fight? Being a mythical matchup, both of them being the same size, etc.... What would you pay to watch that fight?
Little Red Lopez has to be in the hunt for best American puncher.
Lopez, Little Red, was not a Mexican. He also had Irish and Native American heritage at least equal to his Mexican heritage. He was born on the...
Those guys were all very solid boxers that could hit.... Gomez impresses me much less than he does other people. That may be a reaction to the...
If he fights the Barrera that went a little crazy for a minute there, Sanchez would win clearly. But Barrera wouldn't fight him that way. He...
I might be going against the grain here... Romero would be better off boxing Borboa because trying to bull rush Borboa would let him play matador....
Mancini couldn't beat Rosario if he had a tag team partner. Unless his tag team partner was Ramirez but, if Mancini was first in, he would have to...
Lopez has everything he needs to beat Brown. He takes a good punch and hits hard enough that, in my opinion, he would take more from Brown than...
It is not rare. Manny Robles prepared many fighters for fights and other people were on TV. He taught them the fight plan before the fight.
That is the gym run by Tanajara Sr. For a long time Tanajara Jr was going to Riverside to prepare for fights but he did not for this one. Maybe...
That is curious because Tanajara stayed in Texas to train, I'm pretty sure that Garcia was not involved at all.
Was Robert Garcia in Tanajara's corner?
There is a lot of Cokes in Curry. I believe that they are both from the same area in Texas and that both were associated with Doug Lord, who also...
When Davis fought "at" 135, what did he actually weigh?
Does anyone remember the stretch of time during his career that there were a ton of doubts about the punching power of Carbajal?
198. That is the fight Rick Glaser was referring to.
Kronk was among the early innovators when it came to exploiting the day before weigh ins. I don't believe that Michael Moorer, as 175 pound...
I remember a Leo Santa Cruz fight in 2015, I believe it was his first at 126, a non title fight. Jim Lampley said something along the lines of...
I don't know for a certainty. An educated guess would be that he did maybe 2 with each of them and worked with other people as well. I say that...
Last week Rigondeaux was sparring in Houston with 2 fighters trained by a friend of mine.
Brown was the better fighter but, at 54, I don't know if he would be able to deal with a strong, physical guy like Hatton. I don't think that...
The "who was better" question was answered pretty clearly when Hagler smashed him in a fight that was competitive for about 90 seconds. The idea...
