agREED. I cheered against Ray Leonard in all of his fights, but there is no denying his greatness. Simply one of the greatest fighters ever.
agREED. It's ridiculous to think that Leonard was in anyway "avoiding" Pryor. Just because a fight didn't happen doesn't mean that someone was...
Cotto by close decision.
Dunno if Lacy gets stopped, unless he's totally finished. Taylor isn't a big puncher and Lacy's chin seems pretty solid.
If Jones beats Calzaghe, where does the fight rank among All Time Championship fight upsets? Calzaghe is definately the favorite, but there...
Douglas's better skills allow him to take an early lead, but his lousy stamina starts to betray him and his chicken-heart starts looking for a way...
Nah. I don't think folks will give a rat's ass about him after he REALLY retires. I don't think folks will care enough to hate him. My mindset...
Canseco should fight Roger Clemens next. I would watch that .
agREED. Good post. Nunn had talent and skills, but he never accomplished as much as his talent could have allowed him to. Nunn had a short run...
Greb had 48 stoppage wins in over 300 fights...that doesn't say much for him as a puncher. So I don't buy into the notion that he stops Hearns...
disagREED on Moore being an ordinary fighter. I watched a lot of Moore's fights during his heyday. He had good power, heart and some skills. His...
How does Floyd do against one of the fighters he ducked duting his title reign?
Who wins?
I don't recall ever seeing this one in MM? Who wins?
Nah. It's more of a matter of Guinn not being all that good. The heavyweight divison has been mediocre at best for quite a while.
agREED. This fight is a brutal toss up. Both fighters get hurt, momentum shifts more than once and the winner can be decided by a coin toss. And...
I just heard about this on the radio. Did anyone else hear about it?...
True. There was no way Manfredo could overcome both Calzaghe and the bought referee. :lol:
After Jones, who will be next for Calzaghe? Thomas Hearns? Marvin Hagler? Emile Griffith? Don't laugh...that's three more HOF names for...
Is anyone really surprised at Holmes' behavior?? He's been acting like this since the 70's. What would be really surprising is a story in which...
True, but Johnson was not exactly a cream puff, either. Qawi's chin might allow him to survive where Johnson was stopped, but I don't see him...
I don't know about that. Marvin Johnson had the same kind of strength and workrate that Qawi did and Saad took care of him twice. And Saad had...
I like Qawi, but I think he gets a tad overrated sometimes. Saad was a better fighter earlier in his career than he was from the Qawi fights and...
There are so many fights that fit in this topic...but here are some off the top of my head. Holmes - ALi: Holmes was a great heavy, but a Prime...
