Has MMA pretty much exposed the tradiional chinese/japanese martial arts as myth? Or do the gloves/rules just favour basic muay thai/boxing and...
oh dear God:doh: Hagler would crush Floyd like an insect.
what he said.
He got slapped around by Augie Sanchez as well though. He was being hit with almost every shot and only Sanchez' weak chin saved him. His face was...
Exhibit A - the Sanchez fight. Exhibit B - the Calvo fight. Hamed reeked of egg by the time he fought Barrera. The dude wasn't even training...
lacy aint bigger than Barkley.
I'd take Liston in a close one
Pep 1000 times out of 1000.
I was talking about a 154 or 160lb Duran vs Tito.....I don't even ackowledge p4p 'match ups', they're ridiculous.:9:
You talk about matching up the styles, as far as I can see, your basically just generalizing from the Hearns fight :- Hearns KOd Duran, Tito can...
Tyson by decision. Old George would have his moments though.
Pick'em. Tito doesn't KO Duran under any circumstances; his power might be comprable to Hearns, but thats where the similarity ends; but I think...
The Duran who fought Hagler bamboozles the fuck out of Jackson, probably stopping him in about 10.
"when I’m on my back and I’m being straddled by some dude who’s all in my face, I just close my eyes and picture my girlfriend. Then it’s...
Golota's greater mental fortitude carries the day{re}
:rollllling: I don't think it matters...by the 9th round the cold unchanging expression of that bag, swaying contemptuously in the opposite...
that = truth :sportif3: Jackson KO 3.
It pains me to say it, but I have to lean towards Lewis, probably by early stoppage. Foreman would force a brawl...Lewis would probably finish it.
Yes thats what I'm saying. I've seen very, VERY few fighters in history who were slicker than Roberto Duran at his best...and in the fights Ive...
From what Ive seen (though admittedy only 2 or 3 fights), neither his slickness or his punch match up to Duran's. And whether the info comes from...
Duran on cuts, most likely.
:jester: sounds about right...only not as exciting.
if Walcott or Charles can't beat Marciano then neither can Hopkins. Marciano KO 8.
Bruno Ko 3. A bit too big & strong I think.
yeah, I think Meldricks so fast and so busy that Ricky wouldn't even have the opportunity to get off or to work into a rhythm at all...bad style...
Taylor TKo 8:sportif3:
