Roy takes a long restful nap sooner or later. This isn't a question it's a probability 1 event.
It was hardly a fluke win for Sanders, it was looked pretty inevitable from the first bell, more a meteor strike than an earthquake. I suspect he...
I can see Jones putting Rocky down and building a bit of a lead. But over 15 especially you're talking about an inevitability.
It's the reason I spend about 20x more time watching fights from the 40s thru 80s than I do modern fights. Pirog, Martinez, Guzman and a few other...
In all honesty, I was thinking the same thing. Hoya was a better Junior Welter than a welter, anyway.
Marciano.
Yeah, you can certainly breed fighters who will successful in the pros that way as well as increase the US olympic showing; especially when the...
Benitez 9-6
See the thing is - I don't care about Amateur boxing. At all. I care about professional boxing. I don't care if the occasional amateur fighter...
Nah. Having a good chin isn't technique or related to technique or something which facilitates technique. It's a stylistic advantage in that it...
I wouldn't really call a sturdy chin and 2 extra inches of height 'technique'.
It's Mike's equivalent to turning the light on and off 7 times.
How often does Vitali take hard shots though? All the while throwing & landing at a very high output level. See this is classic theoretical...
I'd personally love to have seen a prime Locche against more really great names, or at least to have better clarification on whether his draws...
Good shout. But IMO we saw how good Marciano was in how close he came to defeat. The tape measure came right up to his hairline I'm pretty...
Ooooh. Both men were pretty dramatically declined. Foreman would be more cautious, much less sure of himself, more easily hurt/discouraged by...
Imagining how good that guy was in his middleweight prime boggles my tiny little mind. I'd give more for footage of Charles against say Burley...
No facetiousness inferred. It's a fair concession, tempering what i said previously, that there were WAAAAY more white fighters during that...
One fight I'd love to see the coming cyber overlord load up for us is the Charles of say 3 years hence having a pop at him. The first fight was...
Well I'll point out the obvious first - that 95% of great American fighters are black. But whether they have any special physical characteristics...
I'll confess I've always been one of these reflexive Marciano aristarches, weighting for just how eager America is promote it's great white hopes,...
Of all the footage of Tunney I've never seen him fighting a black dude. That's enough to render him borderline irrelevant to any such discussions...
Marquez late TKO or comfortable UD.
I'm growing to the opinion that Charles was the greatest fighter ever, at least in terms of resume. Tunney would be in deep.
Be honest guys - is this some sort of weird QPR thing?
That's basically my feeling too. I actually give Khan a 60-65% chance of winning but my money will be on Maidana purely because of the odds. And...

Somebody once said that when a true genius appears in the world all the dunces will be in confederacy against him. OTOH, you might just be like...
This is a near year 2000 like passage of good fights. Get loose! Get Loose!:partie:
Know what? Im gonna pick Margarito just so I look super-duper smart on the off chance he wins. I think his size and willingness to let his hands...
