Great matchup. Really looking forward to seeing what happens in this. MTF
Very impressive win for Crawford. I thought this would be a difficult matchup for him and he made Indongo look like a skill-less clubfighter....
Slice was about the biggest Amir Khan fan in the world and hates Ricky Hatton. He would pick Khan to beat Ricky 101 times out of 100 :lol: And...
Hatton would have folded Khan like tissue paper. MTF
Cotto always struggled with stamina issues. He was noted for it. A pressure fighter swarming all over him would exaccerbate that ten-fold. I like...
Yeah. Hearns was a tremendous puncher, no question about that. But McClellan was all about his power. He had absolutely hellacious, bone-chilling...
Hatton wins by late stoppage. Cotto was no great shakes at 140 and Hatton's kyptonite was speed and slickness, neither of which Cotto has in...
Curry was pretty overrated when he was fighting. I'm sure there were some who had him P4P no.1 prior to his Honeyghan loss. He was never as good...
If you watched him beat the shit out of LaRocca, Jones and McCrory, I cannot see how he was 'unimpressive'. MTF
AgREED. MTF
Can't see a lot of evidence to show that Hearns hit harder at 160 than McClellan. And Benn would have beaten Roldan to death. MTF
The way to beat Benn was to outbox him. Watson made him look foolish and Eubanks just countered him into submission. Anyone who went to war with...
Is this true? I didn't know there was a US version of Scum knocking around...Scum, by the way, is a truly fucking excellent movie. MTF
He was good in Wild Things too. MTF
He was. Great film. MTF
I should clarify that my pick is based on having seen not a single second of any McGregor fight. I am presuming he has enough skill and stamina to...
Of course there is. At 154 Tito beat Nando. A very good fighter. That is good evidence that 154 might be his 'prime weight'. At 147 he beat...
He was probably the second best middleweight at the time. But that time was an absolute deadzone for middleweight boxing. Being second best at...
Nunn is possibly the most overrated fighter of modern times. His entire rep is based around his first-round KO of Kalambay. He did nothing else of...
Joppy was dreadful, man. The guy arguably lost to Howard Eastman, that's how bad he was. In an era of 'weak' champions, he was one of the worst....
Mayweather UD12. He'll do enough to keep his 0 and get his paycheck. He'll have no interest in going for the KO. He hasn't bothered with that sort...
There is no real evidence of ANYTHING so far as Tito at 160 is concerned. His entire campaign there is a stoppage win against a very weak...
Nah, he wasn't. It was his standout win but he wasn't in his prime. Anyone who had seen him in his thirty-odd fights beforehand could see that....
Prime Hatton was a much more mobile fighter than the sloth he turned into by the time Frunk finally put him in with a live opponent. Hatton had...
I've done this discussion to death with other posters so won't retread old ground. My view is that Tito was a phenomially powerful welterweight...
Benn hit like a motherfucker and didn't make Eubanks gunshy. Watson had him out on his feet and Eubanks still got up and near killed him. Hearns...
Prime Hatton was too fast for Matty Ice. He'd have gotten inside him and bust him up while giving him little room to let his hands go. Hatton...
Good call. Conversely, Watson-McCallum also fits the thread. MTF
AgREED. There is no sensible argument that Tito's 'prime weight' was 160. The only argument is that he brutally stopped a guy who arguably lost...
Hatton has precisely two fights at 147. In the first he near lost to Luiz Collazo. In his second he got brutally stopped. At 140 he was unbeaten...
