LaLonde had a helluva right hand, and Froch was twice dropped hard by guys with right hands not as powerful as Lalonde's. Yeah, I would give...
You mean in the thread I made yesterday? I didn't wanna convolute things, so I just asked among any fighter of Mexican descent. But Mexico is...
I think the LaLonde version of Leonard was still sharp enough to pull out a close one against Frochy. Ray's handspeed would give Froch a lot of...
A few Ricans truly can be considered Americans. Like Camacho, Ortiz, and Benitez... those guys were New Yorkers. Gomez, Trinidad, Rosario, Cotto,...
Goddammit! lol
That's not much of a stretch. If anybody would seize the fight late, it would be Bradley. I could see Timmy controlling the last few rounds, and...
Yeah, close to 50-50. Honestly, my answer all depends on location. I favor Hatton to win in the UK, and Bradley to win in the US. Either way, it...
I would think so.
Well, Arum and Hearn combined still lie less than Fauci.
There was a time when I would have totally counted out Louis against prime Foreman, but nowadays, I'm not sure. Its possible that Foreman was too...
Best puncher and biggest puncher are two different things. I made that mistake too, and should have clarified in my threads. I think most people...
Is Froch too big? Or is Leonard, even at 168, just too good for a guy like Froch?
Waaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy too premature to compare his power to a Gomez, Rosario, Trinidad.
Golovkin, but Duran would give him problems. Let's be honest, fighting even a middleweight Duran is a world different than facing a Geale,...
Exactly. Dont let his fall at featherweight detract from his 122 dominance. He's a solid favorite over any super bantamweight in history.
Arum and Hearn are on a never-ending quest to see who can outlie and outshady deal the other.
He was a spectacular fighter.
I'd shade Griffith as greater. Carlos IMO was a better fighter though. Certainly Ortiz was more naturally talented. Griffith had to work hard at...
Agreed. Gomez was so much more offensively talented than Rosario and Trinidad, that got him the KOs. Gomez was also a more dedicated body puncher...
I have no issue with the Cuevas pick, but my thing is that Cuevas put full power into every punch. He looked like he was trying to generate...

Oh shit! I totally forgot about Antonio Avelar. Yeah, he's top 5 IMO. Danny Romero deserves at least honorable mention.
Also rewatched Kassim Ouma vs JC Candelo for the first time in MANY years. Ouma's best performance.
Rewatched Alfonso Zamora vs Soo Hwan Hong. Zamora's best career performance. He was a wrecking ball, and Hong was quality. [MEDIA]
I would add Romeo Anaya to the honorable mention list. Anaya was kinda like a poor man's Zamora.
Lopez would probably be my choice, in all honesty. Outside of Jackson, I can't think of a guy with more freakish power than Lopez.
You have ofwended my famiwee. And you have ofwended the Shaowin Temple.
Hes a pretty damn solid midget. Rightfully beat Lara and beat Spence in the amateurs.
The candidates: Olivares Zarate Cuevas Lil Red Lopez Zamora Carbajal 135-140 Oscar Medel I guess... someone can include Duran if they want......
I think it comes down to either Tito, Gomez, or Rosario. Who was the best puncher of the three? Remember, strictly puncher. Gomez was easily the...
