I think Duran has the precise style needed to beat a welterweight Pac. I think he wins a 9-5-1 type classic. I think pac is well worthy of...
Yup, you understand! I do put Jones Hopkins very close to the top in terms of historical significance.:mj: Floyd-Pac is on that level, IMO.
Both are top 5-7 of all time fighters. Both prime, both without any injuries or problems. I don't see any precedent in boxing history prior to it,...
It wasn't as big as Tyson-Lewis either. As I said, it isn't 1980 anymore, we don't have to feign suspense as if we're watching the movie for the...
Historical significance, not significance at the time. It's no longer 1980 we can judge that fight in it's complete context now. Manny and Floyd...
Counter punching is the worst of all strategies against that kind of varied volume, IMO. I really believe manny has improved his ability to put...
No offense dude but this is another one of these questions you ask that I really resent having to answer on the grounds of the answer being so...
I'd rate Duran-Leonard I as the most significant fight ever, historically. The Charles-Moore , Pep-Saddler & first Hearns-Leonard fights coming...
I'm not sure what I'll do for it. I don't think i'd wanna watch it with a bunch of friends who don't understand it's significance. Might just...
It would legit be one of the best nights of my life. I don't have words for how fucking exciting this fight is.
Like I said going in - Margarito's natural style is probably the best way to beat Manny at these higher weights. But Tony wasn't quite good enough...
No. In fact it's the worst possible approach. Observe the Clottey fight, who's basically a poor mans Winky. Manny pretty easily.
We're watching a true phenom here. Im glad he's around to save this shitty era.
Lets hope he gets aids from the blood transfusion.
Gimme Graham.
He doesn't even have the eye of the house cat. He's got the eye of a dying koala bear.
Precisely. I haven't seen somebody so at odds with his profession this side of Tom Hanks in Road to perdition.
Body of a heavyweight champion, personality of a trainee hair stylist. Guy should olympic dive into a Guatamalan sink hole.
Harisson is a coward.
Pick 'em. I'd lean towards Hamed as I would with him in against most any crouching, come forward, hittable guy.
'Leftovers'? Kessler is a young man who'd only been in exactly ONE really hard fight prior to Ward. He then beat Froch in his next fight. Kessler...
I agreew ith your assessment of Hamed. But I think you underrate Marquez. I could see a 96-98 era Hamed winning 1 of a trilogy, but Marquez is...
When the rising computer overlord comes to power, I'll bet you a fiver Hagler beats him. :hammert:
Drug Drug Druggy!!
Well I'll just have to agree to disagree with the rest of my indoctrinated UK brethren then.:lol: Calzaghe is one recently retired top fighter I...
As stupid as it sounds, I think after 10 years I'm only just starting to begin to understand styles and how to make picks. I've made some good...
Excuse me, I meant to say 'on the night I scored it to Hopkins'. As did most of the British press reports I read the next day, as I recall. And...
On the night of the fight I scored it for Calzaghe. Joe was just flurrying and dry humping and doing busy work - it was a million miles from...

Calzaghe is 'very good'. Very good fighter. Outstanding champion. Not on the Marvin Hagler level. He isn't much worse than Hopkins, but Hopkins...
