Call the commissioner of the NFL a “faggot” and a “pussy” in an e-mail. Real smart, Chucky.
I didn’t like how the ages of the characters are not consistent. There were memorable scenes in the show that end up being contradicted in the...
The prequel, Many Saints of Newark, seems pretty polarizing on the Sopranos subreddit Overall I enjoyed it, but it feels like it needed a...
Whitaker was surprisingly aggressive against Trinidad. He was clearly too old and small for Tito but gave a good account of himself and showed...
Fighters lacking in defense and being too tough for their own good apply well here. Trinidad-Margarito mentioned earlier is a perfect example....
I also scored it 114-114. It was one of those fights where you watch and it seems one guy (Paul) is taking more of a beating than the other,...
This seems to be, if not the norm, a very common case in boxing. Sugar Ray Robinson kept fighting into his mid 40s because he needed the money....
Oops, I’m the one who mixed them up. I was thinking of the Rodriguez fight when Pea hammered his body. Whitaker really did decline pretty fast...
Castillo vs. Mayweather the first time around? I think you may be confusing Gary Jacobs with Wilfredo Rivera. Rivera arguably beat Pea in their...
It’s amazing how good kickers are nowadays [MEDIA]
The NBA's Anti-Vaxxers Are Trying to Push Around the League--And It's Working
I think Frazier in FOTC deserves a mention
I think Pacquiao-Pryor would result in the most excellent fight of the matchups
There was one fight on HBO (Guinn-Grant?) when Emanuel Steward rightly called Atlas out on his crap. When they were in the middle of the ring...
There are some similarities. Some thoughts about the fight: JCC was landing the harder shots throughout the fight (not just the last couple...
I remember when Michael Katsidis’s corner when he was losing to Juan Diaz. Instead of giving him technical advice, or, trying to pump him up and...
Give Pernell Whitaker or Floyd Mayweather the power of Julian Jackson
I would have to do more research but I’m guessing it happened more often in the 1930s-1950s since people fought so frequently, and were bound to...
I also remember this humorously bad rendition by R. Kelly at the Hopkins-Taylor rematch. [MEDIA] Perhaps it would have been more fitting if he...
How popular is Canelo is Mexico? Obviously I know he’s not huge like the charismatic Tito is in PR, on Pacquiao in the Philippines, or JCC was in...
Proud Kilimanjaro was Africa’s best heavyweight and earned a fight with Lennox Lewis, but could have been so much more
Smoger did the same thing during Mike Tyson-Brian Nielsen, telling him he loved him and hugging him when he stopped it. He seemed especially...
I remember at the time that he and Cotto were highly regarded prospects, that many observers felt that Bojado had the higher ceiling. I agreed...
I thought Floyd was slightly more aggressive, and therefore more hittable, against lefties. Maybe not against Guerrero and Pacquiao, but in...

I totally understand why boxers so frequently use excuses. In team sports like basketball/football/baseball, you can always strengthen your team...
Corrales-Freitas and Margarito-Cotto 1 both played out somewhat similar. Cotto and Freitas were boxing well and using movement, but not really...
This Grantland article from 2012 sort of describes my feeling about Ortiz. He just seems like a very strange individual. The Crazy Drama of...
Victor Ortiz always seemed a little off to me, hearing about his arrest didn’t really surprise me. I remember Brandon Rios talking about what a...
It would always annoy me when his son would always demand fighters to stop talking in the ring (Cotto-Judah fight), but he would stand there when...
