I liked it! Watched it last night pretty late and was pretty tired before I started but still enjoyed it. 7/10
Fucking hell, FightBeat is slowly metamorphising(sic) into a bunch of teenage-girls!?
It's okay...worth a watch but is always going to be compared to the 1982 version. (a lot of people complained that the new Conan was too small...
:l1:
Heavyweight + no chin = short career. To date, that's never been proved otherwise
Piss-easy fight for Leonard. If Hopkins and Wright can make Trinidad look pedestrian, Leonard, even at light-middle and middle makes him look...
Exactly. However, the only book I read which really upset the Ali worshippers was 'Ghosts Of Manilla' by Mark Kram - who got a lot of flak as a...
'Dark Trade' focusses on a specific period in boxing: 1995-1996, which was arguably one of the most important being as the names Tyson, Jones Jr,...
Weird. I remember going to see this for the first time Australia of all places when it first opened in 1991. (I mean, I was IN Australia at the...
Watched 'Anchorman' twice now and still don't find it funny or 'get it'. At all. And I like Will Ferrell movies.
Tru dat. And DLH didnt stop anyone like the original 'Golden Boy' - Donny Lalonde, either! :crafty:
Top 5 boxing books (IMO): 'Dark Trade' 'War, Baby' 'McIlvanney On Boxing' 'Serenity: A Boxing Memoir' 'Four Kings: Leonard, Hagler, Hearns,...
AgREED. But I think you off the mark even thinking Cotto will just 'turn up' - has he ever done?
Ace book. :bears:
I remember you from Seconds Out....I was Cleto Reyes.
No - in the same way Hearns' rapier-fast jab didn't either. Even though Quartey might be seen to have a better chin than Hearns, he never met...
Never watched it...never met anyone who's seen a single episode of it, either. Critics' favorite 'darling' TV show.
The penny drops. I'd never even heard of it until I saw this thread and now it's EVERYWHERE. But of course, this is how Hollywoods targets a new...
This is the proper review I was waiting for. :bears:
I'm re-booting my training tonight. I had 10 days off because I couldnt be bothered but the Spring is here, its sunny and Im ready. I'm doing two...
I think the reason soccer/football is the most popular sport in the world is because it requires very little to play it at an early age. You need...
But....it is for chicks, isn't it? :dunno:
Who did Trinidad ever beat at 160lb? Mayorga? Joppy? Come on now, Pavlik goes through Trinidad like a knife through buttah. :scared:
This is Pavlik sparring last month with somebody I imagine to be a long-time FightBeat regular type: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RZ_1KqwdU3k...
:clapagain: What about some boxing-training? Skipping/rope-jumping, running...even cycling?
Because you'll come out with something like, "I can bench-press 5 Hanzys for 30 reps" :nono:
Buddy...why not start doing some HIIT? It works like a fucker...much better than relentless, one-paced runs.
Well, I always find that pushups help me a lot. How many of those can you do in 2 minutes? Im up to 60. At the gym, I used to see guys benching...
Can I jump on the bandwagon? 195 down to 165 is some serious target...I'm 210, want to get down to 190 which I did 2 years ago, but I did zero...
My standard for 6.5km is around 33-35mins, but Im better at short runs: 3.2km in 17 mins is a good test.
