think that's unpossible!
Stream of consciousness - 1950s Ageing Robinson and Raging Bull (I know thats not accurate but that the image it evokes) 1960s Ali and white...
enough with the silliness. at heavyweight Lewis KO3.
I can't say this any more clearly. Roy was skilled. Just not as skilled as Ray and his skills developed much less than Bhop subsequent to their...
and where the hell did i do that? I said he was a guy who's style developed to take advantage of his speed and athleticism. you're putting words...
No, didn't say that. But the development in his game in that department was VASTLY less than B-Hops over the years. And the way his career...
So you don't think Hopkins developed as a fighter much more from 93 than Jones did? If so I find that absolutely ridiculous.
Oh yeah, Jones was a very good boxer too, don't get me wrong. Just not nearly as fundamentally sound and versatile as Ray Leonard, IMO which is...
Bernard developed into a fighter who relied on smarts and craft. Jones was always about the speed and athleticism.....and also had a much more...
no Jones fans said he was shot. REED said he was past prime, which is indisputable & Cupey isn't a Roy fan
well in fairness it's a 100% subjective poll, the question wasn't 'greatest' it was 'best'. I mean Frazier had much better opposition to prove...
Again, we disagree. :lol:
I personally doubt it. Roy never faced anyone anywhere near as good as Duran and based on how he folded later in his career I don't think he had...
Well again, it's opinions isn't it. IMO, it's the nature of physical gifts whether it's power or speed that it'll let you look spectacular against...
Effective defence isn't just who takes the fewest shots though. It's who takes the fewest shots while being able to mount an effective offence in...
He applied it better than Judah or Dirrel but not anywhere near as well as Ray Leonard. That's my opinion. I don't think Roy could have beaten...
Yeah but all those things were down to his athleticism. I meant in terms of actual boxing skills, Ray was better in every department.
Jones was the better athlete. Leonard was better is every single other respect and by far the better fighter overall.
suppose we'll really just have to agree to disagree. if you saw the 'little prince' documentary you'd know how little he was training by that time...
despite what commentators constantly say i dont think the hook is usually a terribly effective punch against south paws. so if it comes down to a...
i made this one a couple months ago....ironically i cant remember my pick:lol: This time I think I'll go with Morrison.
:lol:

Mackenzie gets more predictions right than any of the others. Or at least he did during the period where I paid attention to such things.
yawn. sanchez & calvo, too? he looked just as god awful against them.
chocolate fuckshake Williams should get in a substitute.
Morales didn't have Barrera's discipline to stay tight for 12 rounds, so thats an interesting fight. JMM beats Hamed IMO. And as always I feel...
there was a guy called duke mackenzie in the uk who was almost always worth listening to when he made predictions and broke down match ups. Im not...
Old codger is still on the ball at least. Allot to be said for keeping busy when you're old.
