I respect your boxing knowledge and opinions, always Cdogg. But I disagree with you here. I think Tito is the more formidable Middleweight....
Hmmm... Surprisingly, I think Mel takes a decision here.
Possibly.....
That doesn't discredit Hagler...Tito hit harder than hagler did. Duran lasted 15 with Hagler and Hearns took him out in 2 rounds. Hagler wasn't a...
Let's say the Tito who BUTCHERED Joppy vs the Mugabi who "hung tough" with Hagler. Who are we kidding, Tito fucks him up. Trinidad would...
:atu: Yup...that 13th round was like a mystical wall of lead. These modern fighters couldn't have possibly handled it.
John Mugabi against Hagler. Dude was a motherfucking bum! He goes 11 rounds with Hagler and suddenly he was a btter fighter than Felix Trinidad.
I expect Khan to win at this stage but hope Judah knocks him the hell out.
Against PRIME Hagler, sure. I'm talking about the 1986 version who made a smaller Mugabi look more formidable than he really was...
I'll check the thread you linked (my bad) and see whether you've made a strong case in this regard..
exactly.
Michael Bentt knocked out Morrison...yet in a MM I'd pick Morrison to KO Bentt 99 out of 100 times. Shit happens in boxing. Nevertheless...I...
Nonsense. He's only labelled as "shot" to excuse that embarrassing defeat. He wason a similar undefeated KO streak going into that fight as he was...
Maussa was terrible.
How long do you think Mugabi would last with the Hopkins that fought Trinidad? Tito is more durable than Mugabi. Norris wouldn't have knocked...
He's undefeated for all eternity....and won all fights by KO. He's hardly the "worst" in history.
Well it's near impossible to hurt Hagler, but Tito had enough power to keep Marvin "honest", so to speak. Especially to the body. Where you and I...
Good thread. "Burning Heart" - Survivor The following is the best lyric in ANY Rocky song: "In the warrior's code there's no surrender,...
No one is addressing the points I made in this thread? The script was SHIT!!!! How can the writers choose to leave out the important things I...
Hagler was naturally more agressive than both Wright and Hopkins. I see Tito's power and agression convincing Hagler to make it a brawl, and when...
I'm not referring to OLD man Hopkins that fought Pascal, I'm referring to the B-Hop that beat Tarver. Ok I admit..6 rounds may be a stretch...
Hopkins clearly. 8-4 type of deal.
You're kidding me right?
styles...
No Chance. Mugabi may drop Tito, but Trinidad does him in! Prime Hagler would have annihilated Trinidad but not the 1986 version.
I Dunno... If Qawi and Muhammad could go the distance with him and win something like 6 rounds each against him, I don't see Hopkins getting...
That was against an older and slower Hagler. I fancy a prime Trinidad to survive that version of Hagler also AND be very competitive. It wasn't...
Bull....................shit! Hopkins' style reduces Spinks usually prodigious output. He's both long, fast and most importantly...SMART and...
This is ONE fight where I am rooting HEAVILY for the Platinum-mouthed hoodlum!!
Replace Terry Norris' name with Vargas in this post and had they never fought ...this would have made sense also. Vargas got up from an early...
