If the fight was at 160, I would predict (again) with absolute certainty that Pavlik will be KO-ing Taylor again. As it is, there is the relative...
That is the anomaly on his record- no doubt about that. And it looks all the more impressive when considering that Kessler hit that dude pretty...
I wouldn't object to this, as even THIS old, shot version of RJJ would kill either of these dudes (Prime RJJ would sodomize either of these and...
Don King ain't got shit on you Brother LOK :laughing: Anyway, I think that is the plan overall. Two fights to rebuild, then smash Witter (I...
As I thought- my memory is usually a reliable, drink riddled thingy-ma-jig... http://www.boxrec.com/list_bouts.php?human_id=7203&cat=boxer...
Seriously bro- we should start a 'Sven Ottke should die for the betterment of humanity' bandwagon or something... :clap:
I agree with all of this, save that Hatton is much better than Gatti. Hatton HAS beaten elite guys at 140- Tsyzu and Castillo are elite guys. He...
LOK my man, that's what Ottke called himself, if my memory is right. His nickname was 'Das Phantom'. :laughing:
:lol: No. The main gripe is that every time Reid tried to throw a punch Ottke, he was warned by the insane referee and stopped from doing so....
Fair enough, but... ...OC, did you think Reid lost legitimately to Ottke? C'mon man- you can't slate Cortez in PBF-Hatton and NOT fucking...
:laughing: :bears: Word, my rodent friend...
I'm not much of a fan of him at all, either, but I much prefer to spend my time in the build up to this fight concentrating on my blind and all...
I think Kelly is a leetle chinny- not only did Taylor have him on queer street (I know Pavlik was showboating, but Taylor still had him reeling...
I can't get the image of Julian Jackson-Gerald McClellan II out of my head for that very reason. Their first fight was a gruesome slugfest, in...
Welcome to Fightbeat SRR... Sadly, logic such as this does not often hold true around here bud :doh:
But for some reason, he doesn't. Fucking hell, even the light punching Welter Collazo had Hatton on queer street at the end of their fight. Yet...
With Ottke, at least, I agree entirely. He is and was a complete bum. He has precisely ONE standout win- that being his KO of a 10-0 (i.e...
:bears:
Ottke should fight Calzaghe or Kessler. Right now.
Errr...yes, I should imagine he would. People with more weight generally punch harder. Are you trying to say that he punched like he did...
You can be an elite and a dirty fighter. Hopkins? Holyfield?
No it isn't. Guys at a higher weight ordinarily punch harder. And, as I have said A MILLION TIMES, Hatton is a BIG light-welter- he BALLOONS...
It ISNT just Floyd... :doh: Hatton has fought TWICE at 147 and lost once by KTFO and won the second despite being absolutely out on his feet...
I do think Hatton would fare better at 140, because I think at that weight he has far, far better punch resistance than he does at 147 (the...
A fighter can make whichever match-up he so wishes, but when there is a legitimate, P4P top ten guy IN YOUR OWN WEIGHT CLASS, you should be...
Thank Christ for that- I really was starting to think that I was the only person here who can see what is BLATANTLY obvious... :clap:
Yes I have. Many times. Floyd is much better able to adapt because his main weapons are speed, reflexes and general boxing skills overall....
Floyd is the Linear Welterweight Champion of the World. Hatton has had two fights at 147- winning very, very narrowly against a B-level guy...
All correct. Hatton cannot operate at the highest echelons at 147. If the fight was at 140, I'd still pick Floyd, but Hatton would be a much...
