Roy - Tarver II .... If that's the one you had in mind, I thought about it but left it for Jones fans.. :afro:
In light of Berchelt-Valdez, I thought that some fights are not only upsets but end up being totally unlike what most expected them to be. Whether...
I remember how my jaw dropped at the end of Lewis-Holyfield 1. People were booing in the bar where I was. Lewis wasn't that well liked in the bar....
I've heard in a barbershop that Joe Louis was 76 years old when he lost to Marciano. It means he was already in his fifties when he started his...
It’s all about Gerry.
I like Prime Jones' chances too... So fast, so accurate.
Tricky fighter if there is one. Not a world beater but knew how to roll with the punches and preferred to fight at close quarters. Hopkins stopped...
What would be fightbeat without a few thread highjacking once in a while? I mean, that shitter was built on that! lol
You're full of shit man. I'm voicing my opinion. That's it that's all. Deal with it.
Sorry for derailing the thread man, shit happens.
JOM is advocating for nuance now! I've seen it all!
What anybody think about that fight doesn't matter in the grand scheme of things, the record says Calzaghe won that fight. So please, spare me...
You're quite a number man lol. In this very thread I've conceded I was wrong about some stuff and here you are calling me a narcissist because I...
I've already refreshed my memory. It's clear now and I believe Calzaghe won that fight fair and square.
Fun discussion but hey, JOM has been Calzaghe's biggest detractor here for close to 15 years... He's not changing his mind today! Or ever! lol
I feel you're the one creating a myth here and you're relying on bad scoring from the press row. Calzaghe outlanded Hops by close to a hundred...
You're probably right. I have earlier Hopkins fights in mind. His jab was very good in his prime but I get what you're saying, he used it less as...
What? Hopkins had a hell of a jab. He used the lead right beautifully, yes, but he used the jab to set up his right hand more often than not. And...
Yall musta forgot! ;-)
I know he was old, but Hopkins' jab didn't prevent Calz from being all over him and strength wise, I don't believe Froch was strong enough for it...
You're unfair, you pitting Calz's worst showings (you forgot Reid btw) against Froch's best version. And even then, I feel Calz's a very bad...
My memory be damned, JOM I was wrong, he was not considered top 10 pfp back then. There's a nice ressource on boxrec that has these lists from...
Just took a quick look and Michalcziewski beat him first... Still, I believe he was considered PFP before that loss.
You might not have considered him PFP worthy but from my recollection Hill was on The Ring pfp list until he got crushed by Jones.
Calzaghe a toss-up? I don't think so. Calzaghe is all wrong for Froch. Faster, more active, more mobile and he could certainly withstand his...
Gatti, I felt he was more explosive and more vulnerable, and that made him way more compelling to watch for me.
I haven’t seen all of his fights so I didn’t really notice that before.
I don’t know guys but to me, it almost felt like McGregor gave up. I know his leg was badly bruised, so he probably was done anyway but I’ve seen...
Does anybody still watch The Expanse? I'm hooked. I'll watch episode 6-7 from season 5 tomorrow. The 4th season was a bit underwhelming but the...
Have you watched the home made documentary about Zelenoff on youtube? I couldn't help pitying the man, I mean the guy is completely deluded. He...
