I would expect Spence to make the HOF one day, just because he was a big star, and thats all it takes to make the HOF. My question is: Does he...
Yeah, Garcia had a lot of "give" in him. He got tamed by Thurman and he was in total survival mode against Spence. But that was at 147. I'd take...
What I'll say positive about Danny is that its a shame Teofimo lacks Danny's dedication and maturity. Fimo was blessed with more talent, yet has...
Fuccckkkkkkkk NO Danny's not a HOFmer!! Just a good, solid career. Nothing more, nothing less. He got the most out of this abilities, considering...
The other problem is that recency bias among newer fans is absolutely rampant; a phenomenon which isn't unique to boxing, it's this young...
The thing about the Reddit/Facebook era is that you no longer have to have any knowledge on any subject to speak about it. In the late 90s/early...
Louis and Arguello were very similar, yes. They had the two most picture perfect right crosses in the history of the sport.
Ricky Hatton, faithful PSG supporter, hanged himself, per inquest.
Even with help and support, if you dont wanna live and you wanna take steps to end it, no one can really stop it.
CTE is always blamed whenever a boxer, wrestler, or American football player offs themselves or commits any act of violence. In some cases it...
No surprise. Just confirmation of what we all already knew.
Its okay. He left us with so many great memories against a litany of top-class opposition.
Well, 50-50 is a stretch. I think Shakur is a solid favorite to outclass Teo, but Lopez is live.
The only advantage Teo-Shakur has is the fact that its a 50-50 fight. Ennis is a big favorite over Vergil imo.
If both Ennis-Ortiz and Teo-Shakur get signed soon, then I'll get excited. Those would be the top 2 match-ups I personally wanna see.
Its still my favorite sport, but shit has gotten so lame that its like... whatever... Been watching the NFL heavy. Been watching various soccer...
I've become indifferent on boxing tbh.
Neil always talks about Gomez "cheating" in the Zarate fight, and ignores the fact that JMM was juiced to the high heavens in his signature win.
Gomez lost a grand total of twice in his effective, and slightly-past prime -- to Sanchez and Nelson. I consider both those guys a class above...
Yeah, yeah, yeah Gomez>>>>>>>>>> Chocolatito
He certainly doesn't have the defensive reflexes of Whitaker, but when I see him get caught, its by guys he doesn't respect. I would expect Ennis...
The best way to tear down a guy's resume is to call his best opponents overrated. It can be done with literally anyone. Marquez for me was an...
You dont even follow the lighter weight classes and have admitted as such in the past. It shows because you think Zarate's whole resume is built...
Crawford, though he's now older, remains the most talented fighter. Theres no one in the sport who can do what Bud does, that includes Ennis. But...
Murta is quality, but you guys are acting like he's prime Golovkin or something. He's not. Ennis would quite rightly be the favorite over...
My thoughts exactly. He's hard to rank. I have no problem ranking him over Zarate, I think there's a case for either. But its certainly not some...
I dont understand calling Marquez "clear" over Zarate. If you value multiple weight wins, yes. But Zarate dominated the mid-70s over very fine...
Theres nothing "clear" about it; not when Zarate is a consensus top 3-4 bantamweight of all time. Zarate and Marquez are in the same range of my...
Marquez isnt even the greatest Mexican I left off. I forgot that Olivares and Zarate are alive. But yes, JMM as well.
Forgot about Azumah Nelson and Jeff Fenech. They belong in the HMs.
