PBF's hypothetical resume is very impressive indeed.
Maybe this has been done...anyway even if it has, the landscape may have changed since... Obviously assuming he'll come out of retirement. If you...
agreed
:bears:
Cut was from a punch it seems. I'm getting increasingly annoyed as a boxing fan with watching guys (Rahman/Zab), quitting & trying to steal a win.
Obviously PBF doesn't think so...
Sorry salaco. I deleted the post you just responded to. You are absolutely right about Trinidad of course. I do think that Quartey would have...
Damn it! -I'm trying to be enigmatic...
I relate to the general spirit of what you're saying. I've always said that I think as boxing fans, we should always want guys with great talent,...
O.K-TWO incredibly talented fighters!
I don't think Fraud is a strong term. A fighter can be a great talent & still be a fraud, if he is claiming to be more than he is. A fighter who...
Seems a shame to use all that true insight on just one fighter.
Any other Frauds you'd care to uncover for us, based on your fraud-exposing criteria Ike?
He quit.
Have you checkeed out Stevie's latest?: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hLg_9CCBp8U Personally, I think he's gone overboard with the special...
I'm more convinced of PBF's cowardice every fight.
PBF still needs to fight both guys (& Williams) if he want's to have a chance @ greatness. Unfortunately now, if PBF beats Margarito, some will...
Would your pick be different in a matchup- If you KNEW the result was gonna be a K.O- For example-Who would be the victor in these bouts, if...
Good point(s). Average versions-slight edge to Rachman Best versions-I reckon Buster humiliates & probably stops him.
Cotto by close but clear dec
It would have been a blow to the back of the head
Intriguing fight.
Pick-em' fight. (even between whether the result itself is a stoppage or dec)
Yep.
This isn't so much about prime matchups. It's about how a champ from one era would go if they were transplanted into another champs exact...
Transplant a champ. For instance, how do you think Lewis/Tyson, Holy would go if you transplanted them to Ali's era, or vice-versa? Lewis...
I don't think that he would care too much, actually. But this is a boxing message board, & it's the kind of thing that gets discussed.
If PBF retires he leaves way too many questions unanswered for me to consider him any more than a great talent (as opposed to a great fighter)
GREAT fight. I'd very slightly favour Pavlik.
