He's definitely moving up. His manager is pissed at him (and at Garcia) for starving to death the week leading into the weigh-in. He said for that...
I would absolutely count on this fight happening well before Rios-Maidana, or Rios v. any Golden Boy fighter.
Not really, His recuperative powers are what carries him to the finish line, though.
They were 18, I swear?! Oh you meant LaMotta? Never mind. Most of the ones I thought of have already been mentioned. The media has gone...
Was weird - Moreno did everything that Mijares should've done in his own fight w/ Vic three years ago. Worse, the blueprint was there for Vic to...
I thought it was a 96-94ish fight either way. I agree, stiffer competition is required. If he stays at 130, there are plenty of formidable...
It's funny, his attitude suggests typical Al Haymon fighter, but he can flat out fight AND is a nice draw in his hometown. Cincinnati isn't...
Hard to give Max too much credit when in the very same fight, he drew parallels between Rios and Roberto Duran.
Really dying to see where all of this goes. My guess is that the smokescreen clears once Cotto-Margarito post-fight hype dies down. A month...
I have to admit, I won't shed a tear if Rios somehow loses tomorrow. So sick of that entire fuckin' camp, Garcia included.
Yeah that's true. I guess I meant that the sudden KO shouldn't be expected in future fights, since by his own admission he's far more of a volume...
I'm proud of you - here we have Norris against a welterweight who would be moving up in weight, yet you resisted the urge... :bears:
Junior Witter was the first that came to mind, at least from the perspective of his performances on American TV
A press release that just hit my inbox - fourth p/r of the morning, each stating a different expiration time "Less than four hours..." "less than...
Duran hit 200 and beyond in between LIGHTWEIGHT fights. Suffice to say, the man was anything but a natural lightweight. Chavez even today would...
right country, wrong Murray :lol:
The Showtime brass believe that he will make a world of difference at HBO as long as they listen to him, as opposed to his following their orders....
I admit, still a newbie in this world. Any of these fights promise to be good/competitive? *** PRESS RELEASE – The Ultimate Fighting...
At the very least, we see what Chavez Jr can take. He seems to have a good chin, but certainly hasn't been tested against a true puncher like...
Canelo gets ginger snapped.
I believe that 135 would be Oscar's best shot at beating Floyd, especially if it came after the Castillo fights. Floyd wouldn't take a single risk...
In fairness, I take greater issues w/ BWJ's post. I agree, the posts you offered were very balanced. But that's why I quoted Joe in that same...
Pearson was one of the best amateurs I've seen in a while. Not sure where he goes in the pros but definitely worth a look. The KO was an anomaly,...
Cotto UD Cotto UD Rios KO 6 Rios KO 4 Mares UD Mares UD Wolak SD Wolak UD Darchinyan MD Moreno SD
Im saying I never saw the 154 lb invincible beast thats been suggested. Hagler-Mugabi was 160.
One more to consider: December 10 Giovani Segura v. Brian Viloria I somehow forgot all about that fight
awesomesauce
and yes, I'm down to help in any way seen fit
Dec 3 Wolak-Rodriguez II - call me crazy, but a rematch to a FOTY contender has to be worth picking. Moreno-Darchinyan - two of the top four...
What are the fights we're predicting for this month? Not sure if you ever sifted through the ones I suggested earlier in the thread
