My sentiments exactly. I was very impressed by his skills, the subtle things he did, his heart, etc. But it was Antonio DeMarco in there. That...
We can go back and forth about this forever. I think it's clear that Floyd's opponent's respect his power - how much is the question. I do think...
I guess I saw a different fight than you. From what I recall, Zab was bloody, battered and on his way out before the meltdown. I don't put too...
How do you demonstrate above average power? He's only had about five fights at welter. He stopped Mitchell in his first fight there (Sharmba being...
I don't think Floyd's power at welter is average. No, he didn't stop Baldomir and Oscar (two granite-chinned guys) but he def would've stopped...
100% agree. Valero looked excellent on Saturday but I've never been really impressed by DeMarco. Still..Chico? I don't think so.
Yea, he was a good puncher. Nothing more. To say Floyd might hit as hard as Vernon is not a crazy stretch. Floyd rarely, if ever, goes for the KO...
When did Vernon Forrest become this huge power-puncher????
Then Oscar would fall in that rule. Oscar is one of those few guys who looks Tito's height but even if he was shorter, the difference is negligible.
Not when you wear them bent over, hands against a wall.
Huh? He's listed at 5'10 and a half which is 5'10? Who taught you to round off? And you mean to tell me he's a half inch shorter than Tito? WOW!
Nah, I wouldn't say twice. Not if Mosley KO'ed Floyd, no.
Oscar started at 130 so yes, Tito was the naturally larger man. But Oscar couldn't have been shorter by that much. He looks as tall as Tito is and...
Pea wasn't gassed or seriously hurt most of the time when he was dropped, neither was Tito for that matter. But yes, I'm aware that there are...
Yeah, Tito was 5'11. Same size as Oscar.
It wouldn't be as big but the difference is material. Plus, GBP would probably make as much, if not more. The point I was trying to make was that...
What is your point? that 15 defenses and 30 some odd fights later, Trinidad struggled to make weight? Umm...yeah! The Oscar fight was his last one...
Totally disagree. Mosley upsets Mayweather via stunning KO and he and Pacquiao becomes a super duper fight. Might it draw less than...
I disagree. For starters, Trinidad wasn't basic. You point out the Joppy bout but at that point he had fallen head over heels in love with his...
You basically laid out Mosley's plan. I suspect that's what they mean when they say, "We're gonna make Floyd fight." Mosley will circle, pop out...
I don't think Floyd was really hurt either. But he was buzzed. And Oscar was definitely buzzed by the successive rights from Floyd in the fifth,...
Reyes are considered the puncher's gloves for a reason. And as for Winning gloves, yeah Morales looked like a decent puncher at best. Even Pac...
BTW, I'm not saying Floyd has one-hitter quitter punches. But like he said himself prior to Corrales, "Why is it that he's considered the bigger...
Couple things though, Mex - Floyd's power, even at 147, isn't what it used to be. Furthermore, Floyd uses pillows. I suspect that if he used...
You've got to remember that this was the consensus then. Shane was a heavy underdog for a reason. As for Marg loading his gloves, what can you...
Actually, he wasn't considered above guys like Clottey then. He was a pretty big underdog against Margarito and while we can look back in...
Yeah, he wasn't. Mosley was thought to be done at the time. Come on, Mex I'm sure you remember.
One, he killed himself to make weight and didn't train as hard. Really got fat off the Cotto win. Plus, he wasn't motivated - remember he really...
:lol:
Yeah, it's almost insulting to compare that flash in the pan with someone who was the longest reigning title holder at welter last decade. If Zab...
