Well that was just me laughing at Chavez's level of opposition. Personally I think it's pointless. You learn nothing by beating someone with no...
Yep, I do know that, that they simply won't have the info on certain fighters. But they do seem to have info on a LOT of fighters, I mean really....
I agree with this to an extent. It is much easier to NOT get hit running away, like goes without saying. It's much harder to avoid punches whilst...
Hatton did have fast feet, but they more helped his offense. He's not as hittable as some, but he's never had good defense, even against bums....
The funny thing is, the whole tijuana taxi driver thing really isn't an exaggeration. Even after 15 or 16 pro fights, Chavez were fighting guys,...
Funnily enough I thought of that even while I was writing that post. Not only was Hearns a horrible style matchup for Duran, but that was just an...
Exactly, they might exist, but they are completely different to 10-8 rounds in boxing.
Indeed he was, and I think Chavez is miles behind him. They shouldn't even be mentioned in the same sentence. Barrera is a better example of...
People are acting like to be this good Pacquiao must be on roids. If roids did that much, there would be more Pacquiao's in boxing, simple.
I agree, that's why I thought it was an interesting subject. Having no regards for getting hit and being a top fighter generally don't go...
He wasn't even close to not getting hit as little as Duran while coming forward. And like I said, take the level of opposition into...
I've never seen a 10-8 round in MMA from a knockdown, a la boxing. By the way SF4 is just as good as SF3, just different. It's much better than...
Yep that's about the gist of it. Though like you said he wasn't a human punch bag in regards to hittability, anyone who thinks Chavez was an...
Only if you scored round three 10-8, which doesn't exist in MMA. So under MMA rules, no it shouldn't been a draw, it should have been scored...
It's a fair point Tam, but like adam alluded to, one could see a takedown as being a blow in itself. I'm sure a HEAVY takedown when you get...
Wlad isn't THAT bad. He ties up and does a bit of holding, but he mainly tries to keep distance. He doesn't actively try to grab and hump people...
Sure against bums. How did his punchstats look against Whitaker? I wonder how his punchstats would have looked against a peak Sugar Ray Leonard....
I used to be a proper Frock hater, but sorry, having him that low is preposterous. Especially people like Linares above him. Linares is not only...
That's part of the point I've been making. If it was that simple to turn into a superhuman wrecking machine through PEDs, there would be more...
That's a good point actually. You'll get a handful of dominant fighters in each organisation, and fans'll be left wishing for them to fight each...
TFK, it's your choice, but just out of curiosity, what have you got against using your real name?
I wouldn't go that far. Whether or not Gomi is as good as he was, would you not say he is an exciting fighter? OK he might not clean up the...
Precisely MTF. It's not just that Manny has never failed a drug test, it's that his name has never been linked to steroids in any concrete way, a...
RIP Cotto Sr. Fuckign third world countries, might have been saved in a normal country where an ambulance can arrive in you know, less than an hour.
:lol:
Agreed, but at least it's a solid grounding in wrestling that could be improved upon. Despite Cintron lacking some heart, it would still be more...
Floyd - such a big man, such a brave fighter. :bears:
Yeah Paul Daly is underrated, you pretty much never hear him mentioned, but he could well be the best English MMA fighter. And that was the best...
Yep, my feelings exactly MTF :bears:
I just read, his scumbag behaviour in the ring. And I remember, he knocked out a ref :lol:
