I don't think I ever made that specification. Again, Im getting pinned for shit other people say in defence of a fighter I have no affection...
I didn't feel that way. I thought it added to the whole overblown, melodramatic, greek tragedy type thing De Palma was going for. He's a big brush...
I thought that very thing when Manny sparked Hatton. Something about the way Hatton lay there breathing deeply with that look on his face was scary.
Not out of the question he came within about one punch of doing it half a dozen times. The margin was narrow and the effect of that shot must have...
I'm still genuinely impressed he got up from that. At the time I was convinced it was over.
That's pretty much EXACTLY my position on him, too. Nothing more, nothing less. I just find the triumphalist slagging of him after that fight, as...
Yes but temple shots aren't generally a reflection of a guys chin, either. They're not 'lucky' in any pejorative sense, but they are near-freak...
........
Because I liked the look of him against Vitali & think he does allot of things well. And I think he was a victim of some rather horrific luck....
Obviously.
And he is.
I'm pretty much neutral too, I'm an admirer of both, fan of neither.... if I was making one of those in-fight bet type things at the time I think...
Predicting what would have happened next is pretty futile. None of us can make a guess without bringing our bias to it. Although I think it's...
Lennox Lewis lost 7 toes in a motor boat accident and HBO make him fight with specially built shoes. And he STILL won by stoppage. Vitali is a bum.
Take home message of this thread: The best heavyweight in the world for 8 years sucks and a Cuban olympic gold medalist is a bum. Considered,...
And there's a fair chance Gamboa leaps into a devastating straight left too. Fun fight.
I hope Chisora shits on his chest
Wow, aren't you a prickly prick.
JuanMa-Gamboa will likely be an absolute classic brawl.
Gamboa is awfully reckless and vulnerable to be the best boxer in the world, tbh. He's more like a quicker Tito, who's exciting and will look...
That'd be a worthwhile fight.
I know, I realise it's allot to ask....:lol:
That said, this guy repeatedly loses rounds to journeymen. Consider this fight dropped.
Yeah but again.....unbeaten fighters are still interesting. An open book is interesting. Questions that have been resolved already aren't.
Really liked Roy's commentating last night. Really good analysis, spoke clearly, not self absorbed. Just thought I'd mention that.
I should point out that Solis is the first of Vitali's opponents I've had any regard for. You'd think I'd defended Mengele.
This was lovely.
Mate, this isn't the way to promote your site. I ain't clicking on that, EVER, just out of general principle.
I'm gonna go through the picks again for the first quarter and make sure everyones scores are right later. Then Im gonna start a new thread for...
I don't think the results are any more random, we just don't know enough about them to make informed predictions. There's an extent to which we...
