I don't think RJJ could've won that fight without Nady's peculiar and unusual treatment of the action. At the first sight of any close quarters...
Wasn't even a catch-weight fight, was it?
If anything, this fight brings into question Juanma's punching power. Nobody was close to going down in that fight except Juanma. And Marquez has...
I'm guessing you forgot that these two actually fought?
They gave that decision to Judah? WTF !!! I didn't even watch the decision because I was sure Mathysse won. I was rooting for Judah, but after he...
Dude. I applaud your discriminating approach to boxing spectatorship, but this fight simply doesn't qualify as one to ignore. While it lasts,...
Makes it all the more doubtful too that he would've survived the final round and not been KTFO against Abraham.
A legit reason wouldn't be that a date opened up for him on HBO, in which he could headline, and make 3 times what he would for the under-card...
Seriously. And to top it off, Angulo has a loss to a guy most people don't think is very good. I don't advocate dismissing a fighter because he...
I like it when veterans get their chance against a supposed, "up and comer," and capitalize, and find themselves on the road to a title shot once...
:lol: That's funny and all, but the comparison is not really fair. Has Mayweather ever competed or made serious claims about his intentions...
I'm so sick of fighters finding out about other dates they could have, and then pulling out of fights already scheduled. This is obviously what's...
I think because of his punching power, Raffy's speed has always been under-rated. He may be the fastest guy JuanMa will have faced. Plus, Raffy's...
So many fall under the category of careers cut short: Harry Simon Pollo Valenzuela Joe Mesi (just kidding)
Wow. I am amazed at this. Prior to the second Tarver fight, your prediction would've been that RJJ stops Marciano on cuts, or by wide decision. Am...
I think that's exactly what I'm saying... :giggle::laughing::laughing:
it's well known that the way to cope with a good jab is with a jab. so it's no surprise that guys who jabbed with him had some success, although i...
But when's the last time you saw two heavyweights duke it out on the inside? Ike/Tua. Can't think of any since. Tyson hit too hard. So either his...
Ha ha. Seriously, though, Wlad hardly ever throws it, probably because if he's close enough to throw it, he'd rather just hold. The few times...
what's the rationale for saying that Benitez definitely wins at 154 and at 140, but possibly not at 147? is it because he fought different...
:giggle:
I think in general it's fighters we think are either under-rated or over-rated who we'd like to have seen face better competition, whether it be...
Juarez? The hunter?
:atu:
It's the guys with no booz in their house that drink a lot, not the ones with a lot of it lying around. :giggle:
If anyone's going to be countering, it will be Marquez.
Wow. They may have saved this fucking year afterall !!! I'm keepin my fingers crossed none of these great fights get cancelled. Am I the only one...
4. Who said fighters shouldn't gain experience fighting worldwide competition? 5. Well, more to the point, pro boxing should not and should not...
I don't a successful amateur program, as measured by medals, is going help U.S. fighters or the sport. To the extent it is a breeding ground...
The approach that leaves no ambiguity is to format dates as, DDMMYY, for example, 02NOV2010, so that there's no way to confuse the date and month....
