'Word'. WTF is the world coming toooooooooooooo!?
I second this motion.
:lol:
It's a fascinating fight from every angle.:partie:
exactly
Martinez is by pick anyway.
Mosley hits harder than pac.
Either way Im hoping for a better decision this time.
Well it comes down to 'what have they proven?'. After a 9 odd year reign as lightweight champion where he proved himself the best of the best...
Of course, because it will tell us much less about their relative prime abilities which is effectively the whole deal here. That's what we wanna...
One trend which continues with Manny, and I believe it isn't a coincidence, is him fighting opponents who are left hand dominant. That's Diaz,...
Duran's physical condition, obviously.
Armstrong was 300 years old. Robinson-Gavilan is a great example though.
Leonard-Duran I Charles-Burley Charles-Moore Griffith-Napoles Pep-Saddler Chavez-Whitaker Jones-Hopkins I Leonard-Hearns I Ali Liston I...
YAWN again, if you need it explained the conversation is pointless. People making obvious points/asking obvious questions that bait obvious...
TBH, if the Floyd fight can't be made I'd as soon both men just retire. There's nothing esle out there that won't be a resentment stoking letdown.
What he said. If you don't see it then I don't even know where to begin in explaining it. We're clearly coming from different compass points.
Duran's legacy was cemented by the Leonard win, no doubt. Without it, he's a top 20 guy alongside your Arguello's of the world, with it he's top...
Read the rest of my post, amigo:shadow:
I think Duran has the precise style needed to beat a welterweight Pac. I think he wins a 9-5-1 type classic. I think pac is well worthy of...
Yup, you understand! I do put Jones Hopkins very close to the top in terms of historical significance.:mj: Floyd-Pac is on that level, IMO.
Both are top 5-7 of all time fighters. Both prime, both without any injuries or problems. I don't see any precedent in boxing history prior to it,...
It wasn't as big as Tyson-Lewis either. As I said, it isn't 1980 anymore, we don't have to feign suspense as if we're watching the movie for the...
Historical significance, not significance at the time. It's no longer 1980 we can judge that fight in it's complete context now. Manny and Floyd...
Counter punching is the worst of all strategies against that kind of varied volume, IMO. I really believe manny has improved his ability to put...
No offense dude but this is another one of these questions you ask that I really resent having to answer on the grounds of the answer being so...
I'd rate Duran-Leonard I as the most significant fight ever, historically. The Charles-Moore , Pep-Saddler & first Hearns-Leonard fights coming...
I'm not sure what I'll do for it. I don't think i'd wanna watch it with a bunch of friends who don't understand it's significance. Might just...
It would legit be one of the best nights of my life. I don't have words for how fucking exciting this fight is.
Like I said going in - Margarito's natural style is probably the best way to beat Manny at these higher weights. But Tony wasn't quite good enough...
