His reign lasted ten months, comparable to those of: - Judah (11 months) - Spinks (14 months) - Mayorga (10 months) - Forrest (12 months) He...
They're going to replace all of the Everlast ads with Ice Link and Rock Star. "The Bible of Boxing"? Try "La Biblia de Oro del Boxeo" Nigel...
exactly. Randy Turpin beat SRR to win the middleweight championship. It didn't make him the best in the sport, or necessarily even the best...
yep, it's right up there with Oscar holding a conference call last year to let everyone know he was still undecided on whether or not he was going...
why wouldn't it, though? Floyd beat Baldomir... who beat Judah... who beat Spinks... who beat (and unified all three titles against) Mayorga......

I read that this morning, but didn't want to post it here for fear of being accused a spammer by Cupey :lol: But yeah, how exactly do they plan...
yeah but why wait until now? Why not release it, say before Shane's last fight, which would be more relevant and "only" two or three months after...
Just curious why SI (who rarely covers boxing these days) decided to run this story NOW, when there are actually fights happening this weekend....
this is a joke, right? c'mon Hanzy, your photoshop jobs are more authentic than that statement
I thought he beat Oscar because the judges were paid off?
yeah i never doubted that part for a second. Freddie Roach isn't above playing mind games (it's part of the sport), but I know all that shit was...
I know Fred just sent out this press release this morning, but for some reason I feel like I've already read it a few weeks ago. Didn't he alreay...
agREED. I finally got to see his performance (didn't see any of the other male contestants), so judging it on its own, he was good, and put his...
Until someone from GBP or the WBC responds to email or voice mail inquiry (I left both), it's all speculation. But until then, if you can show...
It reads that way to make it seem as if Shane isn't honoring his status as "champ", giving Don Jose the out to claim that he's not acting in...
but the problem is, the WBC is saying he's breaking the rules by fighting Cotto, whos not ranked by the WBC. Why? Because he holds a WBA title....
that makes the most sense, but only for those who view interim titlists as mandatory challengers. On one hand, people are clowning the alphabets...
This fight should be a lot more competitive than Dawson-Mendoza, unless of course, Dawson shows up completely disinterested. I'm hesitant to...
why not? It was a terrible decision, one of the worst of the year. If they were 30 lb. heavier, everyone would've called it "another black eye for...
As for this move, not sure why I'm trying to bring rational thought into alphabet discussion, but... Can Shane even "defend" an interim title...
I think Shane is rated just about right. Dude is past his prime, facing a young, undefeated lion in Cotto. The decisive Oscar win was 7 years ago,...
either that, or ask for an immediate advance the moment the fight is signed. In cash.
yep... that and now what ever purse he was going to get for the Peter fight is now cut by 20%
I just remember it because their East Coast writer (Rich DiBona) and I were the only two out of 30 in press row who picked Ouma to beat JC...
I have no clue what that's supposed to mean, other than perhaps I'll see how the show turns out come Monday morning (or whenever Cupey posts it).
there you have it. why speak for Cupey when he can speak for himself :lol: Didn't they used to have their own news section, though?...
nobody really looks at BoxRec as a news site, though. I'm guessing that's what Cupey meant with his title, as most generally regard FightNews as...
that wasn't my point, though. What I'm saying is that the next time you give Chad Dawson any credit will be the first time. Which only means...
Randall, because he batters Tszyu, cuts him up and stops him late
