Barkley is probably a heap better off than he would of been without boxing, IMO.
Same goes for 'Tyson', IMO.:popcorn: I suppose 'Holyfield' is kinda fitting as well given his God obsession.
Things turned out pretty bad for Benitez by many accounts
Be very interested to see how Arlovski does with Roach's tuition. It seems like so many other aspects of MMA have really developed in the last 5...
The Tyson who fought Holyfield was still 95% as physically gifted as the one who fought Spinks. It's true that some fighters styles don't age...
Cutting it to 12 rounds was possibly the worst thing that ever happened to the sport.
The first fight was a farce from the moment it was signed.....a rematch would be a travesty. And what's the point? Didn't the first fight do about...
It's a bit messy judging fighters by decade. Better to group them by what decade they won their first world title, that way you can judge their...
Hardly a classic year for the sweet science, was it?
Mosley. Fought three nobodies then fought his stylistic nemesis. He could have been big shakes if he had fought Tito instead who was even more...
Hopkins would beat the majority of rated heavyweights easily. That includes Oldyfield
x3.
If it's in the UK Im there baby!
you make a good point. That fight probably just came into my hed cause i watched it most recently.:kidcool:
Loche-Cervantes Duran-Cuevas Toney-Williams Whitaker-Nelson Ali-Williams
Good call on Gonzalez, I always forget about him. Ray Mercer deserves a mention as well. I'd probably have him above Bowe.
Ain't that the truth. :shit:
Fave - BJ, Marcus Davis, Rampage Least fave - Liddel Fave up & comer - Anthony Johnson. 08 fight - Penn-Sherk.
I doubt steroids helped Mosley much. They should have opened an enquiry into the corrupt judging the very night of the fight though.
Yeah Buddy, I think the quote is really about any kind of decent training - you can probably take out the word squat out and replace it with...
So you don't reckon people tend to get happier when they train?:dunno:
I have to admit my initial reaction to this fight was one of disappointment at heavyweight boxing's last hope taking the fight he has the least...
yeah. much better head movement, much more composed, much better with angles, much better at picking a shot :bears:
Oscar wasn't shaky or sluggish, in fact he was moving fine - just at about 1/3 of the speed of the target he was trying to hit.
For all his flaws at least he wasn't grotesquely fat. I'd have Byrd around over most the division.
yeah, he was on the brink of being big shakes at that point and certainly being talked about to match up in big fights against MAB etc. I'd never...
how right you are.
Just seen the fight for the first time. My (quite drunken) thoughts spat out in next to random order :- Oscar wasn't 'shot' or severely weight...
Exactly. Anyone who questions his heart for quitting there is an idiot. He had exactly ZERO chance of turning that fight around and every chance...
I've said a bunch of times that HArrison is a hairdresser in a heavyweight champions body...that being the case Wlad must be a fucking accountant...
