50/50 fight
Way better defense. Mainly down to a greater willingness to stink and the fact he has huge size advantages over almost everyone he fights
Yeah I saw a vid of him at 15 recently and he was 200lb
Can't, gotta work. Pray....for.....mojo.
This thread is making my hangover angry
Yup, but being one handed has been a real hindrance.
That he looked big is neither here or there....he was a genuine middleweight (as the fact he campaigned there for 15 odd years without scale...
No. Hopkins stayed near 160 all year round including in the ring. He was a proper middleweight, unlike say Taylor or Pavlik.
I don't criticize Calslappy for fighting RJJ instead of a relevant opponent, do I? I say it's a meaningless win, which it is, but it was a career...
Whether we like it or not isn't at issue. The question was whether Hopkins was scared of Calzaghe and the answer is he wasn't - he did what every...

Unless my viewing sample has been misrepresentative, most fighters at the olympics have been taught to fight in a 'converted' stance with their...
tsyon bow down to him if he meat him in a pool hall
Simpletons like the 'it's just because it's the same colours, nothing to do with history' guy grate my cheese a little. A few months after the...
Tyson must've had 50lb on Holy at that point :lol: Holy's pretty tough.
:lol: I knew they were briefly friends as kids, though i hadn't heard that particular part of the apologue. I'd heard Mike was unpopular because...
Earmuffs are for leap amateurs & button mashers.
Florentino will make an outstanding pro. I hope he doesn't disappear into obscurity
Willie Nelson -he's in the Ra! Robert E. Lee - he's in the Ra! Phil Anselmo - He's in the Ra!
....it's all on the internet :lol:
I would slightly favour The Duran.
