Damn good post REED. Roy did things in the ring never seen before. Roy's skill set would have been difficult for anyone to deal with in any era.
I don't know if it's been mentioned or not, but does anyone know of any contacts at Showtime to petition them to air Corrales-Castillo I as a...
The point is, his "biggest" fights were boring fights...case in point the fight last weekend. When you're expecting possibly the largest group...
There's a huge difference between Ali, Hamed and Mayweather. Ali went over the line at times (calling Frazier a gorilla) but for the most part,...
"Like I said before" Oscar blocked a ton of shots, but Floyd CLEARLY landed the cleaner blows. I can't find 7 rounds to "give" to Oscar. I say...
Oscar's appeal was on the rise due to the Mayorga victory. No one expected that fight to do almost a million buys. Floyd didn't bring much to...
It's legal... "however" Punches above the elbow and on the shoulder are considered fair blows. Those should be counted as landed punches....
Neither were fan friendly fights. I'd pass on both.
This is the kind of crap which ruins the game. Did Manny Pacquiao feel that Jorge Solis or Oscar Larios wasn't "worthy" to fight him? This is...
Punchstats... DLH - Threw 587, landed 122 - 21% connect percentage Mayweather - Threw 481, landed 207 - 43% connect percentage
Oscar threw more punches than Floyd. He also missed more punches than Floyd. In my recap of the fight I said that Oscar didn't get enough...
The best I could see is a draw for Oscar... With that said, I thought Floyd won the fight. He won his rounds more decisively than Oscar.
If a rematch isn't made, who should Floyd fight? Would you prefer to see him fight his 154 mandatory which is Vernon Forrest? If he wants to...
Floyd won't fight Shane. I doubt the fight could be made because A). Floyd will think he should get another $10 million. B). If there's $10...
This is precisely the reason Wink's considered boring. There's NO expectation of the fight ending early. It's like Ivan Calderon...
Hopkins vs Tarver wasn't exactly a hotbed of activity. Let's see Winky stop somebody...anybody! Someone check his record and let me know the...
He'll get in, but he's not a first ballot guy. Maybe on his second or third time.
My favorite Chico fight was the Manfredy beatdown. That first lefthook he dropped him with was a thing a beauty. Manfredy made no mistakes,...
This isn't the thread to argue about this Sly, but I'd ask you to reREED your post. It specifically references domestic abuse THEN makes the...
I've got Pacquiao #1 P4P, so the obvious answer is "no."
At least we know why HBO holds Floyd in such high esteem. :popcorn:
1). I cast the first stone. I've never raised my hand to a woman in that manner. 2). It was pretty obvious what he did. he didn't deny...
I saw it this morning (I knew he'd be on so I DVR'd it). Floyd had some swelling around his eyes after the fight (which is typical). I thought...
Preach
I've always had harsh words for Chico, but this is truly sad. Corrales fought and lived hard and in the end, both caught up with him....
So far so good... Shane won... MAB lost (to a lesser known GBP fighter) Oscar lost... Now if Hopkins gets spanked by Winkster......
If you saw ESPNNews the day of the fight, Roach told Atlas and Kenny the exact same thing. he said if Oscar stood in front of Floyd, he'd get...
No... Unlike you...they picked the right horse. :notallthere:
REED, You need to make this sound more like REED...typing and all. You should end it with, "Oscar DELA Hoya is a SCRUB." My question to...
Called Floyd "Baby seal" then let the fight continue? :dunno: If a guy opens up his side, punch him in the side. That's what Rahman did to...
