Sam Langford should be mentioned. Sam McVea too.
Charles, because he was much better.
All these styles were first and foremost developed as methods of self defense, Tam. And some of us live places where their efficacy in that...
:lol:
Jimmy Young might have been the best, on his day at least.
what % of threads on this board are still exclusively on the original topic by page 5?:lol:
The point isn't that a boxer could stop a trained wrestler or UFC guy. It's self evident that 8/10 they can't. It's that he doesn't have to...
TFK made the point that BJJ is better than boxing for the street because most fights end on the ground. Me and Azazel disagreed with him.
I've noticed fighters always rate the guys they beat (judging apart) higher than the guys who beat them.
Agreed. I once read an article formatted as a round table interview with a bunch of guys who taught street defense for a living and they were...
What percentage of street fights involving people who are good with their hands (that aren't against trained grapplers) end up on the ground...
true. I guess it's just the fact that a 15 year old girl could probably tap a 200lb man given the right leverage takes something out of the...
BJ at 155lb is no4 at worst.
Fair enough. You're right that it's personal taste. I suppose I just have a quaint 19th century notion of a fair fight being a contest of...
Where's the ignorance in what I said? I'm not questioning it's effectiveness one bit. I just think it's fairly fucking gay way to win a fight. In...
You know what? I absolutely feel the same way. It's gotta be the least manly fighting art in all of human history.
I like Eddie in this one. As ponderous as Eddie could be was he was also relentless - no way would he tacitly quit like so many Roy opponents did....
:bears:
Hamed Ko 11
lol, great picture, Cupey:bears:
93. I got every legit champ except Harte, Willard, Tate, Weaver & Maskaev though. Whoever thought to include pre 95 wbo & the IBO really...
Depends what the goal is. As a way to lose fat that would probably be quite effective. As a way to get stronger, not so much.:dunno:
Pac, because he's better.
The Hilton who beat Benitez (20 y/o, 19-0) vs the El Feroz who beat Yori Campas (21 y/0, 14-0).
Fat fucks. I hope they kill each other in the ring.:shit::shit::shit:
Reminds me of that shit from Marciano's time about Rocky's punch being as forcefull as an anti-tank missile.:atu:
Prime Tyson would out jab Lewis for the first 4 or 5 rounds at least. (Yes you read that right.:lol:)
Short of 250lb trainers of flyweights I doubt there are many. :lol: MAYBE Yoel Judah in a ring, though in your average street fight I'll take a...
Khan sucks.:shit:
Separate names with a comma.
