I had Marquez winning both, but in retrospect I think the draw was the right result in the first. Marquez won the second, clearly, IMO.
Yep, good wins. In fact he has 5 outstanding wins, Corrales, Castillo II (lost first one), Judah, Hatton & (old, gun shy) Oscar, but how does that...
they fought in a better era of middleweights and beat better middleweights. It's extremely close, not emphatic at all, but I'd say Hagler & Monzon...
Putting Mayweather in the top 5 sounds like a decontextualized "teeny bobber" mentality to me. Basically, if Hopkins is the third best...
Mayweather hasn't achieved nearly enough to be in the top 20, IMO. Hopkins & Jones are borderline top 20, Mayweather might make the top 30 if you...
If Floyd comes back and takes on Margiritto, Cotto, Williams then it's fantastic for the sport, I can think of nothing better. If it's to fight...
Would be the greatest MMA fight of all time! Preferably at a catchweight.
You're an absolute jackass.:shit:
Hopkins is greater now. Greatest fighter of his generation.
going beyond 90 degrees is actually better for your knees because its the hamstrings and glutes that you bounce back up off, not the knee joint as...
225 doesn't seem impressive because 95% of people obsess over the bench to the neglect of every other lift for some reason. So the guy you see at...
As Buddy and Lok said, 225 is pretty good, especially if your other lifts are in proportion to it. If your just a bench jockey (like 90% of gym...
I thought he was totally RIGHT not to come out for the 9th. What was the point? To me he'd quit 5 months earlier anyway when he decided he wasn't...
I don't think he's grasping at straws, I just think he's decided that 'heavy handed' means 'moderately powerful' all by himself and expects...
agreed.
Nah, Vitally has more stoppages because he's more accurate and he can fight more aggressively without having to nurse the china chin. He's a...
Vitaly's the better fighter for sure. Those punches are messy looking, but they are actually incredibly accurate, he pulls them out from the...
Agreed it was pitiful. Open scoring contributed I think, knowing he had lost every round discouraged him and gave him the reason he needed. But to...
Buddy, out of curiosity, how many less pull ups do you manage than Chins? I never really trained overhand style for some reason and when I tried...
Tried HSPUs for the first time the other day, was chuffed to manage 3 full range. :cheer: Yeah, I know, pitiful compared to you lot, but not bad...
Yawn, you lot sound like bitter Scotsmen!:lol: That's all we hear about here regarding Buchanan .....how he was 'robbed' by the cheating Duran who...
McNeely wins due to his superior modern athleticism & power
because he was vastly, VASTLY better than Tito, that's why :lol:
Don't confuse accomplishment and ability though. What Tito had was ATG consistency matched with a barely above a average champions ability. A guy...
Since Trinidad literally doesn't have two boxing brain cells to rub together, I'd go with Duran every day of the week....even the walking zombie...
I think he's one of the most disgusting and detestable bastards in sporting history. Utterly charmless prick.
Hatton was going forward ie in Lederman's tiny little mind, winning.
would hardly take steroids to bulk up 10lb. And I feel like I should point out that half the guys in todays top 50 could probably get to...
In 05 I'd pick Hatton.
was just thinking the same thing. He seems to be one of the few top level modern fighters who can consistently produce fights that aren't littered...
