Yes...and even Ring Magazine, not exactly a bastion of anti-American sentiment, immediately stated after the fight that both Holyfield and Lewis...
This is where I feel a lot of posters make a big mistake. Was Holyfield a great fighter? Yes. Of course. That said I can identify at least 5...
Lewis resume and reputation are better, and rightly so. However, a lot of people perceive the gap as greater than it really is. This is...
Which prompted Salaco to jump in with the by now infamous line about how Roy was the first Pirate in history who was terrified of fighting...
Eitherways, if Wlad loses, you can bet that this division that nobody has any interest in will suddenly become more "Interesting".....:shit: and...
Dude....physical prep is half the game. Half the game. I'll bounce that straight back at you........Mercer and Holyfield fought midgets. When...
I don't see any damage to Peter which could have really dented his chin that Wlad just takes the guy out. His chin is a good chin, if he has...
@Damien: Ironically, everything that is said of Wlad was said of Lewis, and then some. Lewis really didn't get any credit off the Americans...
Yes....now THAT IS a grey area. We can interpret that a million different ways. It's why I wonder about him in this current fight.
That's cool. I am not sleeping on Sam Peter. I regard Wlad as a flawed and talented dude who can lose as easily as he can win. Hitherto he has won...
Floyd would fuck it up, and have to settle for suicide by wide decision.
Holmes. Larry Holmes. Larry Fucking Holmes. Ancient Larry Fucking Holmes.
The big jab, big right hand, lumbering style {though Wlad has improved a bit} the Ammy pedigree...as I said there are comparisons. Why don't you...
Brewster had been given a hard time by Wlad in the first 4 rounds of their fight. Not until he fought Lyakhovich was he ever worked over like that...
I have an irrational love for facts and for open-ended but even-handed discussion. Wladimir is comparable to Lewis in many ways. Lewis was a...
I think you are the Barristan of General Discussion. Wlad was fighting Peters when Brewster was fighting Krasniqi. As I said....I will leave it...
Okay, let's throw a ruler over that one. There was 3 years between their first and second fights.....but only some of that delay was down to...
You are not quite being facetious but you are most definitely being frivolous. Is it so desperately wrong of Wlad that he never "REED" Sanders?...
I don't think it is a "Mismatch". I think Wlad starts as a favourite, which is a reversal on the original scenario in 2005. Ironically, it is...
This is Orwellian Newspeak.. A combination of James Joyce and a Master Farrier couldn't smith words any better than that. The matter in question...
I personally think Lewis just may have been the best HW boxer of all time. Not the greatest, just the best. He would never do huge tickets, or die...
He beat Bruno having had the worst of it up until Frank made a mistake, and he got the decision against Mercer. He never wanted anything to do...
He is coming off a 1 punch stoppage. Any opinion on the comments of Abel Sanchez and Manny Steward?
:dunno: He would be getting stopped by former Heavyweight champion. Once again...I don't see why a fight-thread should be about anything other...
You seem to have an irrational hatred for the man. Is this what you call a pre-fight thread? Hanzy would be proud of this shit. Did Lewis rematch...
You know....as pre-fight threads go, this is one of the worst. All I see is a routine collection of dudes, who, and they have their reasons I'm...
No he didn't. He edged a close fight in which both men came close to losing on more than one occasion. Eventually, Rahman's slightly better...
To a degree I agree with Abel Sanchez and it speaks to something I mooted in the past about Manny Steward. Steward is a trainer and not a...
Fuck youtube and its adz!!:scared:
You know how hard it is to make a WBA/WBC unification. Now all of a sudden we got the WBA guy getting a crack at the WBC title, a title Ward in...
