Nobody hates quite like Mex...
Robinson by decision.
Plus Primera he was wrecked by Hearns, but so were Duran and Cuevas, which makes him as good as either one of them...plus he lasted longer than...
Me, too. As much as Esk tried to sell his own spin on pretty much everything, I get the feeling he actually had seen many of the fights and...
You are correct about Weaver. He wasn't regarded as a dangerous opponent for Holmes at the time of their fight.
As much as Stafford gives me a headache, maybe we can trade mikE to get him back???
Two MORE years?? You're not showing a lot of faith in Monk.
Kenny Norton gave Weaver the "Hercules" nickname when Weaver was his sparring partner.
BoxRec doesn't say any of this (even though it's true), so it never happened.
Weaver lost to Duane AND Rodney Bobick prior to the Holmes fight. He wasn't "terrifying" anyone. I know you like to be opposite guy all the time,...
Yet more drivel from someone who knows nothing about the fighter he is talking about. The more you depend on BoxRec, the more you make a jackass...
:lol:
mikE loves BoxRec with all his heart.
It was definitely a quick stoppage. I was like "Whaaaaatt??" when it happened. Although Weaver didn't help his case by not punching back when on...
Yep. Most certainly NOT at the time of the Ruddock fight.
Cdogg already answered that, and he is correct. And anyone who has heard of Dokes before this topic was started (which leaves you out) would know...
Hey, stop giving that realistic view of that time. It's way easier to make snarky remarks to defend today's LH division that is way, way worse...
Yawn. So what is your pick? Is it a close fight? Cant wait to hear how Spinks MIGHT be able to get the win over Pavlik.
Foreman is undefeated, therefore he is a quality fighter. - mikE
Absolutely. Plus...he started out as a journeyman in the early 70's and eventually became a respectable "opponent" by the late 70's. Holmes was...
Hint: You know zero about Dokes except for what you skim from BoxRec.
Many, many light-heavies would have beaten up Pavlik.
Absolutely. Dokes was a better fighter.
Keep scooping up that negative attention. I guess to someone like you, ANY attention will work. As you were...
Dude...it's like you read my mind. :Thumbs:
Actually...I am curious as to when YOU think his prime was. I will give you a hint...it WASN'T at the time of the Ruddock fight. How many of...
Irish 2002/2003: "Michael Dokes just died after a long battle w/cancer and instead of showing a bit of respect for a fallen fighter, I thought it...
Dokes with ease. He's was a much better fighter than Byrd.
Yep.
