Myself being a boxing Historian, I'd say Gatti was certainly overrated from his loss against Mickey Ward while Ward gets no credit for winning the...
Yeah, but you could probably say the same of Hopkins with Calzaghe. Hop has never faced a fighter like Calzaghe. Calzaghe is fast, powerfull, very...
I disagree but that was quite funny.:lol:
I thought De Leon beat Penalosa, yeah the scorecards were ridiculous, but you can't expect to win a fight fighting about 30 seconds per round.
Pac is already a superstar, people were talking about potential here. I agree about Bautista and Donaire. I like Bautista a lot.:clap:
Don't be afraid, nobody's going to rate Linares over Pac because of this victory, Pac's legacy isn't threatened.:lol:
Exactly. He fought Hopkins early but Toney was at the pinnacle of his career. He started getting lazy after that, had a few good wins, but nothing...
I must admit I don't read them a lot...:dunno:
I can't believe this kind of whining pops up after last night Pay per view....:doh: Some of you guys need to give yourselves a good slap in the face.
Linares looked good throughout the fight IMO, even in the last three rounds, I'm actually surprised you didn't like what you've seen. I'm also...
When you'll see the fight you'll probably lose some hope, I think Calzaghe would beat Hopkins at this point, clearly. Hops won but he looked old...
Can we say anything negative about a fighter or a fight without being labeled a bitch?
I thought Winky gave every chances to Hopkins to look good. He brought the fight to him. Hopkins tied a lot.
:lol: Nah. I just enjoy seeing new talents, boxing needs em.
Of course, I'm surprised anybody even thinks about debating that.
That makes his performance even more impressive. I look forward to his next fight, it's always fun to see new talents like this, especially when...
Yep very, very good IMO. The sky is the limit for this guy.
I'm signing up. Hopkins a great fighter but he's a stinker, no doubt about it.
Me too but the end of the fight wasn't as exciting as the beginning.
I'd pick Calzaghe, no doubt. Hopkins wouldn't move Calzaghe around like he did move Wright and Calzaghe punches harder and faster, he's also...
BTW, was it the first time Kastidis was fighting a southpaw? He didn't seem to cope well with the other guy's stance, defensively speaking.
BTW who did know that Linares was that good (Apart from the guys at Max that I don't read...)? That was the first time I was seeing him fight and...
I thought it was a pretty good card, I was impressed by Katsidis and Linares, especially Linares. This guy is very good, very fast, nice style and...
I'm sure you'll come back 3OG, that was just a bad night for you.
:lol: :laughing:
I'm not surprised that jake is on it, he can recognize talent when he sees it.:clap:
:bears:
Start it whiskey and put my name on it.:clap:
Glad to see you around here Alejandro, I've been asking Gerald Tucker why he didn't want to avenge his draw, I know why now.:bears:
I've always maintained that Ike was better than himself, glad to see someone that agrees.
