Sure he does. At his best, he was a true master boxer. Long, snappy jab, defensive skills that RIVAL those of Mayweather, smart counter puncher,...
Or hold. But yes, he's never met someone who could CONSISTENTLY jab him. Oscar was able to do it in spots but didn't have the energy to keep it...
Was Chavez-Rosario considered a pick em? If it was, talk about a mercy stoppage when the corner FINALLY threw in the towel. Poignant sight as...
Benitez range and countering ability is something Floyd never faced in the pros. Not to the degree that Benitez had.
Thoughts...
Hopkins age also had something to do with that. He was 36 and Trinidad was 28.
I didn't see it live, but I really felt bad for Benitez watching that Leonard KO. He was totally outboxed that night and took a beating towards...
Yeah that was brutal. Ricky clearly took that one hard.
I gotta admit I did feel just a bit sorry for Oscar in the post fight interview of the Pac fight. It was so strange too because I THOROUGHLY...
Damn, he straight up said that Thurman is easier work than Garcia. If Thurman beats Porter, it's gonna be harder for him to duck Spence unless...
Hopkins-Trinidad- The same thing REED described when Roy was KO'd... Just a real sick feeling. It was weird. It was like the "bad guy" won and...
The Guerrero fight was so bad that there are no words that could describe it. Nothing worse than seeing a guy face an overmatched foe and PLAY IT...
That bar must have gotten quiet afterwards.
Aside from physical talent, there wasn't much else Judah had. No real fundamentals to his game. It was all speed, reflexes, and power. The fact...
I disagree that Mayweathwer is underappreciated. For me, he's highly rated but he's not TBE... I think he's the best 130 pounder ever, a top 6...
N'Dou, Castillo 1, Corrales. Hatton fight was entertaining.
I thought for sure the Warriors would mop up with OKC whom are playing their best ball right now. And with Toronto now putting up a fight, we...
Yep. And he wouldn't need 12 rounds, and he wouldn't need 4 fights for it. Pac will come out aggressive as usual, and may even land some shots,...
Chavez-Haugen I was a kid and I absolutely LOVED watching Julio beat the shit outta Haugen.
Pac wouldn't be so eager to let his hands go against Leonard.
My bad... Didn't catch the part of watching it live. Well we can live Trinidad-Vargas there. Others include... Garcia-Khan Maidana-Ortiz...
Leonard-Green Trinidad-Vargas Curry-McCrory
What about Esteban DeJesus?? That third fight especially. Brilliant master class.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E5Dwo1u4Vac Duran speaks more English than I thought he did. Too bad the stuff he's trying to teach Shane...
Manny's only chance would be if Leonard had the Zika virus in the ring that night. His usual ace in the hole (hand speed) would not be present...
I am in shock at what I've been seeing... Fully expected the Warriors to mop up with OKC.
Garcia shouldn't need a gift here... Baldomir is at best a C level guy.
Even after the Cotto fight, I still picked Leonard.. Stylistically, I think it's a mismatch. Leonard is bigger, stronger, more powerful, and...
At 147. Anyone give Pacman a chance?
I always thought Joshua would beat Parker and after seeing this fight, I feel even more certain he would knock him out early to mid rounds.
