We debate over how hot they are and how much their existence enhances Roy's legacy
You didn't actually prove that they are not bigger. You talked about average height and assumed that the difference in weight is only about fat....
Is getting KO'ed (knocked out of time) a good thing or a bad thing?
AgREED
There is more to it than just size though. When guys are this big, throwing one-twos and putting everything behind right cross becomes an...
Great advice guys, thank you all! I have listened some of Cosell but Dunphy could be useful too, as Cosell's style is perhaps a bit too polemic to...
Ok, so I am going to call a fight for a satellite TV. First I will do the fight next weekend between Ricky Burns and Jose Gonzalez, then, if I...
Yes, that was a very impressive performance and one of the reasons I ranked Thomas at #1. Witherspoon probably wasn't at his sharpest in that...
I agree. Had Wlad always fought like this, people wouldn't have a problem with him. However after all his dreary fights people are critical with...
I think Spoon was themost technically skilled right above Tubbs. Tubbs looked very impressive while Spoon was more of a basic guy, but Spoon could...
To original question, this is an interesting one. I think prime Witherspoon was the BEST of them, but he also was technically among the best...
Not true. 6'3, 210 lbs guy wouldn't have been particularly small in the 80s while now such fighter is clearly a small guy and nobody expects him...
I repeat my agenda devil spinning yawn comment fot the 1000th time. I think the guys of 80s are better than the ones we have now, but not AS MUCH...
Wlad wasn't holding too much this time out, in fact Pianeta held much more. Still, Wlad was way too cautious against a guy who wasn't dangerous at all
Yep, Karl is talking crap. Haye was 200 lbs already as an amateur and was killing himself to get to cruiserweight. He is not very small...
Yes, several times. You can watch his last bout, as well as the McCall fight for example, from youtube. I won't recommend doing that though
Again, this is obvious and it isn't Wlad's fault. It is just that there is no more reason to get excited about this fight than Larry Holmes'...
I am not blaming Wlad for not making interesting fights since, as you say, there are very few credible opponents out there and the best ones...
Pianeta is the same calibre as Wlad's three last opponents, Mormeck, Thompson and Wach. That is, a guy who isn't dangerous at all and can't punch....
Do you guys think Jones could deal with the heavyweights such as JDS or Cain? Jones isn't a small guy and has more athletic ability than them
I changed my sig to respect him, and Duran for the matter
It is a near-miracle if Floyd will survive the assault of Guerrero. Don't let the fact that he was a featherweight not too long ago fool you, nor...
That is true, but he isn't fighting enough, even those under 6'5 guys
Exactly. I was a fan of Haye's when he was a cruiserweight, heck, I am still his fan but he isn't making it easy with his behavior. I find Charr...
I thought Murray did enough to win, but it was close and not a robbery by any means. Giving away three of the first four rounds was costly....
It was a nice scrap
Murray is a quick, hard-working guy and punches harder than his record suggests (many of his full-time bouts are three-rounders from prizefighter...
It is not about that at all, I am just looking for reason why people prefer 15 rounders but not even longer fights
I am not sure really, nor am I saying you were wrong. The questions you would need to add to that though are: 1) Would the non-unsatisfactory...
I don't think changing fights to 15 rounds would solve any more close fights. Yes, some guys who finished strong in 12 rounds could get advantage...
