With single shots, I agree. Also his movement looked sharp in his public workout
How so? That's two pounds more than in Fury I
I am actually little bit of a fan of Wilder. His fights are colorful and he gives his all. Also the older I get, the less I care about how a...
It is difficult to pick Vitaly against anyone good, because his resume is so thin. He was dominant, but many would be dominant facing Kirk...
I believe this is it. I don't believe boxers are that different from any other sport or era, though. If basketball and football players got the...
I'd take Khan, actually. MAGO wasn't a one-punch KO artist, nor was he very good at cutting the ring. I could see Khan outrunning him
Power alone is difficult to define. For example David Haye was a 8-9ish puncher when he was able to counter an oncoming opponent with his right....
Pretty nice bomb by that Soler guy
The first time I saw Salvador Sanchez I was mostly impressed by his accuracy. It was as if every shot he threw was landing. Of course, he was...
Not actually a great fight, but PBF vs Maidana I was pretty good considering the expectations
Holyfield vs Foreman exceeded all expectations
I'd favor Foreman head-to-head
I'm sure he had his reasons
So perhaps the coaches can teach tactics and ploys more than technical finesse? Such as "if you throw your jab here, he will react so-and-so and...
Obviously not, literally speaking. But I began to wonder if good technique (after the basics) can actually be taught, or can you only teach...
Whyte has partly himself to blame though. Getting caught roiding (before Rivas bout) and taking a nap against Povetkin didn't strengthen his case
Teofimo and Wilder
Liston also visited in Finland when he was the champion in 1963. There was no suitable opponents for him here, even for an exhibition, so instead...
According to a journalist, Liston was seen visiting a children's hospital, bringing toys to the children and keeping them company. He never made...
No, Whyte complains about a shoulder injury. Personally I don't believe shoulder injuries are a real thing

Moore himself said he was born in 1916. His mother however thought it was already in 1913 and that has usually been accepted as the consensus
Plus, prime Tua got soundly outboxed for ten rounds by inexperienced Oleg Maskaev who had nothing over Wlad, not even chin. I get it that if...
Probably. Depends on how you rank the Joe Jeanettes and Jim Johnsons of the early days and do you stress greatness or being better (Ingo vs Tony...
I can't find the original results. In a later ranking (gathered by a web site that concentrates on lists) neither of them broke into top-15....
Since we are a bit off-topic, here's an interesting note about the prestige that boxing carries. In 2000 there was a vote among sports writers in...
Extremely weak. Denmark had Battling Nelson, Swedes got Ingo but Norway and Finland are without legends. The pretty much unanimous goat of...
I first followed mainly Padres because of Tatis Jr. After they crumbled I began to support SF which is the only team I know anything about. As...
I agree. I had it 9-3, and even 10-2 is fair. But the rounds were extremely uneventful and thus close. Prime Wlad could have upped the pace, as...
Good fight. Wallin has some skill and he moves well, but he can't punch. Thus I expect Whyte to steamroll him eventually
