Isn't the ability to soak up a skill set to such a pronounced level & apply it a talent though? I mean Sanchez' footwork, angles, punch picking...
I think he just means that he wasn't particularly physically gifted. Which is a fair observation. But one look at the career of Zab Judah should...
Fair enough. I'll stand by Sanchez at featherweight. If Marquez and Morales can best Pac at or around that weight then I think a guy I consider...
Pac will pull out a win, but will struggle badly with Diaz' size and will probably find it hard to discourage Diaz from ploughing forward. Pac's...
Double dog doo.
And over a decade younger than the Hopkins Pavlik fought.
Dude, I've watched about 100 fucking rounds of the guys career which is what I accumulatively make my pick on. I have work, study & a work out to...
10-6.
It happens every single time. Invariably. As an example - the knock down in Vargas-Mayorga where Vargas was clearly winning the round then got...
Watched the first 3 rounds: he would have beaten Pacquiao!:lol: Dunno what the sweet fuck happened in the rest of the fight that it ended up a SD,...
Sounds like one of those quickly aborted experiments in new scoring systems that pops up every couple of years in one state or another. TBF, I do...
'Hagler could only fight one way'. Exceedingly silly statement.
Griffith....because he isn't Floyd! :lol: Nah, seriously I haven't seen enough of Griffith to make a sensible pick. Only seen the first...
I actually agree with this take on things. The complaint for me is that he has shown so little initiative or interest in seeking out the fights...
I don't think he's overrated at all. Gomez, Nelson, Lopez, La Porte, Castillo all beaten soundly. Certainly he was a better featherweight than...
If you're making this match up to make a point, it's a fairly stange one, sly. I agree with your pick all the way. Hagler 12-3/10-2.
:lol::cheer: Strangely enough, I actually agree with all of these picks.:bears: As you say Ike-Lyle is for all intents a coin toss though. I...
:lol::bears:
You're ignoring the fact that those were at Middleweight, and you usually see people pick the creme de la creme middleweights over Robinson. It...
Hopkins isn't a current Middleweight. Pacquiao isn't a current featherweight. Though I agree that Pac & Hopkins give Sanchez & Hagler hella tough...
Uh huh, and this makes you 'crazy', why? Duran was one of the 5 best fighter in the history of the sport. As was Ali. Not many guys in history...
There's a surprise, UGTBK picks the guys born later (except in the one where the guy happens to be Tyson (or Duran) :lol:)!
No, because he's better than every modern fighter. Just like we'd pick Hagler over any current middleweights, Ali over every modern heavyweight,...
It's rare for you to be so screamingly wrong:dunno::lol: ;)
I didn't see, no, but as Ive said before apart from when we're talking about the Floyd/Pac affair we tend to be on the same page a ridiculous...
Lewis only has a 2" reach advantage over Foreman. He had a bigger reach advantage over Vitali.
:lol: It really does make sense. As a whole I really do feel like the Duran-Leonard match up is in danger of becoming dangerously distorted by...
Thats exactly the question I asked and personally I think there's only one answer. No way Lewis could keep Foreman contained long enough to avoid...
Well, yeah, by fire fight I mean they'll both be trading with the intention of ending things with some abandon & urgency. Like just about every...
Lewis KO 4 Foreman (Lewis won't be able to box George, IMO, it'd be a fire fight and believe it or not I'll take Lewis to have the final word)...
