The clock thing was fun, only because I've never before participated in a 2AM conference call (12AM Vegas time).
Yup, two months ago it was live footage from the back seat of one of Floyd's cars. Now it's up in a hotel bedroom (or somebody's bedroom). They're...
If Mugabi doesn't stop him, he breaks both hands trying.
No it's not the same Mugabi. It's the mythical version that was an absolute beast at 154. You know, the one that destroyed Frank "The Animal"...
Ah, I get the relevance now. Alex Ariza Androids Alex Ariza Androids Alex Ariza... and... roids Fighthype translation: Manny Pacquiao is on...
Love the direction this thread has taken.
Yeah but he has to perform like that against guys that can actually fight. I seriously doubt we ever again hear from Rodriguez, at least on...
HBO didn't approve the fight. It only aired in overseas broadcasts. It wasn't aired specifically on HBO, just in highlight capacity.
And I thought Gary Russell was fine, at least in his interview. Max pressed him in wondering when he'd step up in competition. Russell just played...
The post-fight interview w/ Max is a good place to start. The rest - I wrote a brief on it this morning....
Should go very far under Canelo Promotions.
Might as well put this in Mythical Matchups. As long as Gamboa fights for Top Rank, there's no way he moves up in weight "just" to face an Al...
Have to give Broner credit. Even in Floyd's presence last night, he still managed to serve as the most arrogant man in the room. He looked good...
To answer the original thread question... I don't see Berto doing much as a pro above 147. He already looks a bit too puffy. Adding more muscle to...
I completely disagree. Schaefer has been trying to plan the fight as early as two years ago (though I'm sure a big part of it was just to put...
The difference between Bowe and most other HVYs who have faced Wlad (or Vitali, for that matter) is that he wouldn't shut down the moment he gets...
It's a sound theory. I was a big fan of his when he was coming up, but he just hit a wall. Very possible that it had everything to do w/ being...
It's possible. I just wonder how much Alexander has left, mentally. Been a while since he's looked good or confident in a fight.
Kessler didn't fight anybody. He's a 21st Century fighter, none of them measure up to the Frank Fletchers and James Kinchens of the world. Happy?
He's not. Both of those fights mentioned were discussed at 147. Malignaggi moved up last year, and Chino would be willing to move up as a one-time...
I'd love to hear the argument for how Roldan and Kessler are equals. Kessler's one bad night in the office so far was the Ward fight. He was...
I remember once upon a time when Golden Boy and the Contenders promoter planned to co-promote a card, Oscar and Ray had a side bet where whichever...
Prime McClellan was far more disciplined than the MW version of Benn.
It's just one fight so far. I'm not a big Broner fan, but I think he's a lot better than you give credit. Ward didn't look like anything...
Depends on how you look at it. He thought he would be facing Paul Malignaggi for his first fight w/ Golden Boy, but now looks like he's fighting...
OK, so here is where Russell's cuntiness comes into play (to answer MWS' earlier question). This show began as a tripleheader. Russell was...
Style-wise, I don't get why Calzaghe beating Hagler is so farfetched. Doesn't make him greater in an all-time sense. Just means that he matches up...

I was glad that HBO slammed the brakes on Russell Jr getting airplay. I liked him as an amateur, but he's turned into a prima donna cunt as a pro....
Yeah, they should just change their name to FloydHype and get it over with. I respected them when they first broke from B-Talk and did their own...
