This one has me bummed. I was looking forward to Warren getting his ass handed to him. I feel worse for Bellator. This was the highlight bout of...
The title of this thread is "The Best thing for boxing would be......" To me, nothing would be better for boxing than an undefeated Mayweather...
Good point! :lol: It's funny, I never had any real desire to visit England until learning the ancestry thing. Now it's the only place that...
Well, to be clear, I meant it in the sense that he's not considered an elite fighter.
It's funny, but I actually thought Evander looked better against Valuev than Haye did. Haye would be little more than a speed bump on Evander's...
If Ortiz beats Mayweather, Mayweather's stock plummets. It wouldn't plummet just because Mayweather has a loss, it would plummet because it was...
That's a new one on me. I thought I knew most of the differences. Thanks.
If Ortiz beats Floyd, no one will give a shit about Floyd-Manny. It becomes a meaningless fight. Well, practically meaningless.
Agree 100%.. Except for the misspelling of 'feces' but that's cool too. :scared2:
Admitting the obvious with qualifiers (i.e. my bad toe, he's bigger, he couldn't stop me) is not being humble.
Maybe....Maybe not. It's difficult to tell based on the litany of nobodies he's wasted time fighting since he bailed on the fight with Wladimir.
Based on what? Being slower; having a shorter reach; or being a lighter puncher?
Personally I hope the wait continues. He's garbage.
I don't know if it was praise for a fallen foe or the truth. I just always found it interesting that Foreman said it given all the guys he fought....
It was pretty interesting to me that Foreman regarded Cooney's hook to the body as the hardest punch he ever took. And Cooney did look good...
Yeah, this is the definition of humility: :Thumbs:
Jarhead and Gatti out to great starts... This is going to be brutal. [IMG]
Spassky-Fischer was a virtual roller coaster ride next to Haye-Klitschko.
The fact that ANYONE is trying to make Haye's performance anything more than the pathetic display that is was, simply underscores the absolutely...
Bantam is only new to the UFC. The WEC had a bantam champ since 2006 and Shooto since the early 2000's if I'm not mistaken. Although in Shooto the...
Faber thought he was going to be able to lift Cruz and get a big slam. Didn't happen. As Joony said, you have to give it to both these guys for...
You do realize that Cruz landed more strikes and landed more take down attempts in the fight, right? Cruz out wrestled Faber with relative ease....
I was pulling for Faber in this fight and tended to give him the benefit of the doubt. That being said, I still thought Cruz clearly won. Even the...
The funny thing is that Wlad is more lightly regarded now, with the safe, winning style, than he was when he was an offensive fighter that...
Personally I don't think either guy took many chances. It's one of the problems with having so many belts and titles. It doesn't seem the idea of...
Too early for me to say, but at this point I like him better than Warren. His striking isn't terrible. And he seems very quick with his level...
Ahhh. Yeah that was shocking. But I like Roop. He isn't terrible. I would rank him higher than guys like Leonard Garcia and the Korean Zombie, who...
How do you figure Assuncao was in line for a title shot?
Please dude. The reason Mendes moved up the ladder quickly is because the champion at 145 is Jose Aldo who sent the previous top guys like Faber...
Warren will be defending his title at 145 BEFORE moving down to 135...So yeah.
Separate names with a comma.
