I asked Miguel what he weighed and he wouldn't tell me and he said he didn't know. He knew. If he got anywhere near 147 it was through purging,...
I met Miguel in San Antonio at the last Pacquiao fight. I'm a little taller than him, and the guy looked like a lightheavyweight to me, I don't...
I think purses should be witheld on all parties in the quitting corner (where the fighter is in no apparent distress, no imminent danger of being...
Cotto is one of my favorite fighters, but he really needs to start fighting guys his own size. After looking at his recent KO of Zab Judah, Cotto...
What a coincidence you just happened to quote my post. I think any fighter that quits (particularly the two quitters you used as examples) should...
Sorry, Joony. With that line of reasoning, you are discounting the accomplishments of all the true lightweight greats of the past that fought at...
Not if he would have been made to weigh in the same day of the fight as Duran, Armstrong, Whitaker, Chavez, Williams, Ortiz, DeJesus, Buchanan,...
Not if they weighed in on the same day as the fight, no way. There is a BIG difference coming down from 148 like Diaz does, to coming down from...
+ A post that just put you on I G N O R E permanently here.
I think Hatton wins this fight here. It will be a younger jr. middleweight beating an older super middleweight that has been through too many ring...
"Book Reader" you must be having your face in a novel and not on the fight itself. That fight was a rout win for Pernell. BTW: Floyd won the...
Anyone that thinks this fight was even remotely close is guilty of Revisionist History. That fight was a Wipe Out win for Pernell. I saw it live,...
If that is the first fight, that was an even bigger robbery than when Pernell whipped up on Chavez. Whitaker won the first Ramirez fight 9 rounds...
Of course Chapo would be the big favorite to win, but he would have to be in the condition he was when he fought Camacho and Davis though, or he...
To me failing a heart test is pulling a Kostya Tszyu, an Acelino Freitas, or an Israel Vasquez QUIT JOB. It does take a certain amount of balls to...
The guy never quit in the corner, or quit after being knocked down, unlike a lot of champions in the past several years have. The guy had and has,...
The Pryor that beat Arguello twice was unbeatable at jr welter, IMO.
Napoles beats him at 147 and 135.
No jr welter beats a prime Aaron Pryor.
We'll agree to disagree then on both Castillo having to fight the same day as making 135, and about Paulie as well.
I'd say same thing with Castillo, Juan would whip him if the weigh in was same day. He dosen't struggle at all, Joony. He walks around at 148 max,...
I'd take Diaz over Pazienza and Bramble, particularly over Bramble due to styles make fights. I didn't know that Rog won a title at 135, if he did...
Lots of guys beat him at 135. Armstrong, Chavez, Duran, Whitaker, DeJesus, Ortiz, Ike Williams, Beau Jack, a prime Camacho (but Hector would have...
This is very difficult to pick here, and I'll pass. I don't see how anyone can call Ross "overrated" though, Neil. Ross was one of the Old Timers...
Mayweather on points.
It wouldn't happen. To lunge into Danny was SUICIDE.
Two of my favorites, and an extremely tough call. A slight edge to future hall of famer Marquez who would come off of the floor to stop Carlos....
I think Juan would have taken Arturo at 135, no doubt. Diaz 8-4 in rounds.
I agree, and he was super tough as well.
Danny would get off the floor to KO Manny in two, similar to how he destroyed Juan Malvarez.
