First fight what? Hamed's first fight against a future HOFer?
Pacquiao didn't make his mark @ 126 until 2003, hell, he didn't win a title @ 122 until after Barrera beat Hamed. Hamed avoided Marquez, then...
Fighters always say "this will be my last fight". It rarely ever is. To say someone who won the 4 major belts at a weight class, whom was the...
Michael Spinks did, and he's an ATG. Felix Trinidad did. After losing to Hopkins, he couldn't decide if he wanted to be a fighter or not.
Naz was a solid favorite, I think 3-1. 2001 was the year of the upsets. After the first war with Morales, Barrera looked rather poor in a fight...
Roy's at least been semi-active and beating fringe contenders at light heavyweight. That's much better work of late than Trinidad, who's been out...
I don't think Tito ever really mentally recovered from the Hopkins fight. I don't think Vargas fully recovered from the beating from...
Roy might be drained @ 170. He hasn't been that low for a fight since 1996. Other than that possibility, I see the chances for Tito being...
Pavlik was rocked even before he tried to mock Taylor with the faces after catching an elbow. I don't think Taylor can win though. Pavlik was...
Agreed.
How does this one go?
Corrales-Castillo had a lot of skill involved. It was a clinic on inside fighting between the two best lightweights in the world at the time.
I think I've watched Trinidad-Vargas more than any fight ever.
Of the 2000s 1) Diego Corrales-Jose Luis Castillo I 2) Marco Antonio Barrera-Erik Morales 1 3) Somsak Sithchatchawal- Mahyar Monshipour 4)...
War Trinidad!!! (he's probably getting dominated though)
I'd take Riddick Bowe's crew back in the 90s over Floyd Mayweather's entourage.
I don't think I'd fare too well against any professional boxer in a fight.
You forgot his "Floyd has no chance at all at beating Oscar"
I'd like to see Trinidad pull it off, but I highly doubt it. Roy's not the same fighter he was, but at least he's been semi-active and beating...
Yes, I think it landed on Winky's protective cup.
:lol:
I had Freitas up 114-112, and Corrales winning the rematch 114-113.
:bears: for Ali.
Julio Cesar Chavez supposedly beat up people in Mexico with the help of his bodyguards. That's what Asians like to do, beat up people on the...
Of course Mayweather-Cotto is a huge fight, but Cotto beating DLH makes Cotto is a bigger name and gives him bigger exposure. Beating DLH does...
Agreed. Mayweather-Cotto is by far #1 on my list of fights I want to see. Floyd will fight the winner of Cotto-DLH since that's where the...
Cotto, but the fight won't be @ 147 anyway.
I just watched the Quartey-De La Hoya fight, very closely. Originally I scored it 114-113 for Quartey. This time, I watched it extremely...
Just more talk. I expect Cotto and DLH to fight in May, and Mayweather to fight the winner.
Tarver is the one who did jack shit in that fight. After a good first two rounds for Tarver, Roy got most of the next 4 rounds to take place at...
