Exactly. To me that was all a pretext for his potential slight lack of conditioning for the Barrera fight. Pac is bigger than people realize...
Johnson would be a bigger challenge. :lol:
Sanctioning bodies.......suck.
This does nothing for boxing other than contribute to its demise. :nono: :lol: :tease: :lol:
Oh, I know. Just thought it was a particularly astute observation and a cutting way of saying it. :lol:
Stop making sense and join the fickle whining bandwagon, Jake. :nono: :lol: :clap: Good post.
Ouch.
The groundhog emerges....and of course, it would be for a Mosley fight! :lol: Where ya been, 'dog?
:lol: errrr..... :nono: Shame on you.
Since when did Hearns outbox Hagler? I don't remember seeing that. :dunno: Also - Calzaghe boxes or fights NOTHING like the prototypical Hearns...
There's no way to even accurately guess at this...it's way too much speculation for an Ammy fighter who never went pro. But the fact that Savon...
I think at 130 Corrales is a TERRIBLE stylistic match-up for Manny. Folks talk about Chico "having problems" with quick fighters - but Manny is...
Te be fair, though....that was down at 122, and that was one of those one-off punches that happen in boxing...a very singular occurence (similar...
Rubio, keep it clean and civil.
:lol: :lol: Classic!
:lol: Damn, what a great pic...the opening is RIGHT THERE!! :doh: :lol:
Would have been good to read the thread some more. :lol:
Wait a minute....that was a 4 or 6-rounder on the UNDERCARD of a Juarez fight, who was the real draw in 2001 in Houston. And weren't Rocky...
Guzman has alot of skills and plenty of reflexes... But he is also inconsistent, has mental lapses, fatigues in the 2nd half of fights and...
Early, yes....but as the rounds went on and the frustration mounted, his workrate decreased, in spots significantly. As expected. And he wasn't...
That's one of the exceptions I referenced. Wasn't the MOST exciting of fights, but I didn't think it was a stinker at all... Good technical,...
I think that's fair. That's where he's improved most - fundamentals - while managing to retain his aggression and workrate. If he used his jab...
:clap: :clap: There are some exceptions, but great observation and principle to be followed.
Diaz is definitely in a good spot in the LWT division now - no doubt his dominance (present and purportedly future) is in part due to the relative...
I'm convinced Manny can make 130 for at least 2 more years, and do it well. Peace.
Yup...like I said in my prediction, he just wasn't going to let his hands go enough.
It's not about height or reach....it's about mass, natural physical strength and weight. I do think Manny would be at a disadvantage vs. Diaz...
I guess Manfredy-Diaz was a bad decision; but I've always thought it was a much closer fight than most thought...Diaz was punching at Manfredy's...
Pure Haterade, bro....and I rarely say stupid stuff like that. :lol: There are things I don't like about Juan's game; sure. And he's not my...
Yup.
