I guess it will also be as painful like when they leave to do their own things. Overall I wish all of the olympians luck as pros, but I don't...
The in-fight problems are always going to be problems; refs make judgment calls, and they may not always go your way. Therefore I doubt the...
What... I don't know what to make of this. Is this a state body taking a stand for some greater good, or are they just being stubborn and...
Wonderful points. I like the Calzaghe reference as well because it does seem like a conscious effort with him and Diaz. The main difference...
I WANT Marquez to win...but dammit this just seems like the kind of fight where Casamayor just gets the benefit of the doubt by the judges on...
I agree with you on that. Those interviews (particularly for the loser of the event) rarely come off classy; it just riles people up and makes...
They asked him what he thought, and he told them. I don't know what he's supposed to say in a more diplomatic/politically correct way, other than...
Kellerman at this moment making some excellent points (goupthink, fan influence, etc.) but stands by his opinion. I think he earned his money...
Okay fine whatever, if Katsidis won 7 rounds then thudding punches partially blocked are more important than I thought.
Jesus, Katsidis raised his arms after Diaz slipped, despite the fact that it was CLEAR Diaz had landed the last 1-2 punches. What?:notallthere:
I've never seen tape be such a distraction before
just sayin...
Rd 3 seemed close again but really, I'll take the 5-to-1 ratio any day unless that one really staggers the guy.
Heh I wonder if Cole will need to give any advice tonight :nono:
Seriously if Diaz could learn to plant on his punches like Juarez, and Juarez could implement Diaz's activity level, then both men would likely be...
What a strange fight. The ref was subpar. Both guys were fighting their fight but the guys on HBO may have been ignorant of their pasts. Juarez...
DIAZ UD. Just a gut pick. If he doesn't win here, I doubt he'll be able to win a title again.
Hopefully Diaz can bounce back well in this fight. I think, if he loses this one, he'll be on the downslope because high volume/low power...
Well then, I guess we hould make a big deal out of it. There should be an article with this headline: BAYLESS DOESN'T RUIN FIGHT Decent...
Awesome fight, by round 6 everybody in the room saw the writing on the wall, the only question was Cotto going to go the full 12 because Margarito...
Cotto by UD. He brings more to the party. He has some movement, he has improved his ability to fight at a distance, and he can pass a brief test...
I agree with this, but... I think the fact that Calzaghe is not a one punch KO guy is being overstated so far. There is no doubt that his...
I don't agree with this at all. Calzaghe is a fighter who spent his major career at a weight higher than Hopkins OR Pavlik, punches at a high...
It's all based on if Dawson is as stupid as he seems (yes that's sarcasm, I don't think the fighters I mention are stupid, just making a point)......
Wlad UD 12. I wish I had more to say.
Between this thread (Nunn is my second favorite fighter ever) and the Pavlik-Williams thread (PW is my current favorite), I'm guessing that...
OH GOD DAMMIT!!! :flip: This had better be another Arum lie. I can't stand this match in any form. This could ruin Williams' career if he can't...
Ha, I gues the headbutt is similar to the punch after the knockdown...it's a wash in terms of karma.
TORRES GOT MARVIN FRAISERED! WHAT A KNOCKOUT BY HOLT!
I missed that; thank you for pointing that out, because it makes more sense why Arum would be upset. It's simpler to go with a venue that can set...
