Exactly. Tito was being compared to Ray fucking Robinson going into the B-Hop fight. Most the posters here have been around long enough to...
I'd have to go with MMH in a close one. I think if these guys fought 10 times at any time period Hagler would have won the majority of them.
I think people are having a hard time putting what he's done in any context because it's so unusual. A) the aberrant weight hopping and B) the...
I know you're a strong dude LOK....but the strongest 181lb man who ever lived without any specialized training? You can understand my e-skepticism.
You might be right. I suppose I just have a hard time getting my head round a world class guy improving through his late 20's the way Pac appears...
Agree to disagREED.:lol: Again I don't think you're fully differentiating between fundamentals and physical gifts, although you'll doubtless say...
Wow high praise! Im not so sure he'd even be in the top 5 best fighters since Duran to be perfectly honest - Leonard, Hearns, Hagler, Whitaker,...
Oh yeah definitely, great, again, was an exaggeration. Your description is certainly more accurate. Fair enough, I suppose I just really like...
Left field suggestion, but I'd like to see Mosley-Witter or Mosley-Bradley. Both more interesting fights than any of the aforementioned, IMO.
Yeah, it's not the whole generation of course, just a creeping trend which that kind of talk is symptomatic of.
You gotta begrudgingly admire Ruiz as a character, to achieve what he has with zero talent. But as a fighter he's the fucking anti-christ, I could...
Disagreed, I think he has allot of skills. Just not the physical gifts to implement them at the highest level. At a certain point, if your speed,...
Not sure why you found it so strange - his attitude seems pretty typical of a large % of this generation of fighters, generally.:dunno: Only...
When it's ready you can come round and we can boom boom together in front of the full length mirror :mj:
Hmm...the comparison is slightly strained but I see what you're saying. Difference essentially is that Leonard's wins were vastly better at every...
I'm not no, though I'm so sick of people trying to convince me that I should be I'll probably sign up soon. Sounds good Buddy, post some pics...
Eastman beat Joppy too IMO.
I still miss Petre though, he was a great poster, place is poorer without him. :crying:
Wow I really can't let that slide - Manny is 'selective' now? Wildly, wildly unfair, dude.:lol: A) The Oscar fight was taken purely because it...
What does your home gym look like Buddy?:bears:
it's a fair point:lol:
Exactly. Or the late Sanchez for that matter. I'd certainly pick Sanchez over him at 126lb.
I doubt anybody in the history of planet earth ever squatted 950 for 6 (certainly not without some pretty high tech suits) so I think it's safe to...
:lol:
Jesus....:doh:
No sporting situation is ever gonna resemble a street fight.
LOK, far be it for me to throw e-accusations around but you sure you didn't 'internet up' those numbers a wee tad there?:lol: According to...
Well done Eddie Chambers! For as long as he continues to train like a fighter he'll have a fan in me (despite his abject lack of boxing...
'Trai....ning?':dunno: :lol:
:bears: Yup, so was the Tackie fight. He's a great fighter trapped in a bums body, IMO. He looked appallingly bad against Cotto, but I just think...
