One reason Froch would badly struggle with Calz is due to physical strength. I'll give it to Calz in that was extremely physically strong at 168 -...
Bradley-Provodnikov comes to mind. Bradley was saved by the bell at the end of the 12th, and had zero left. If there was a 13th round Provo would...
Akinwande: Goes past 3 only because he'd clinch for dear life. Mike would get him out eventually, but due to those spoiling tactics Henry goes...
The Wilder fights are a poor indicator of how Fury would fare against Bowe, because quite simply... Beyonce can't fight a lick. Maybe we could...
Lb 4 Lb's views kinda reflects the general feeling of the majority of the forum. Not many posters on here are into boxing the way I am anymore,...
Epic fuckin loser.
I had DLH-Trinidad a draw. And while I won't always resort to "If it was a 15 rounder..." in this case, I will. If it was a 15 rounder Oscar...
Aside from money, it also depends on which fighter is aligned with the more connected promoter. Hence why DLH, despite being the biggest cash cow...
I'm late to the party, but while race will ALWAYS be a big part of boxing, this is a sport which will always be run first and foremost on green....
Yeah, he plain and simple was incapable of beating a Tyson/Lewis like puncher. Bowe was NOT a puncher on the level of Tyson/Lewis.
Golota's jab would be a non-issue. It looked great against Bowe, but Tyson is a different kettle of fish. 96 Tyson could still close the gap...
Also in fairness to Joe, he deserves credit for the Kessler win. Hindsight is 20-20 but the fact is that MANY were picking Kessler in that fight,...
I thought Calzaghe beat Hopkins. It was a competitive fight, but I never complained about the decision. I had Joe winning. I do NOT think...
Golota at no point was built to trouble Tyson. He was always hittable, and always froze when hurt. That makes him made in Heaven for Mike, 100/100...
I'll give Joe credit in that he was the best super middle in UK history. I don't think he would have beaten Toney if James was on his A-game....
Yeah, Gomez was simply not great outside of 122. He only managed one good performance at featherweight - his schooling of Juan Laporte. But at...
Nah, not yet. I still haven't finished the Johnny Nelson career set.
I suspect that if Navarette's chin held up, he'd be able to dismantle Vasquez much the same way Oscar Larios did in their second meeting.
The guys often considered the two greatest super bantams of all time. Who wins? Gomez KO 10 imo.
Who wins? Both were big right hand punchers (Roger moreso). Roger was also quicker, but Paul was more steady and durable.
Navaratte is more talented than Vasquez was, so it depends on his chin, as Vasquez could punch. If his chin could hold up, he'd beat Vasquez, who...
Well yeah, with the exception of Calz, none of them were elite. Eubankthhhh, Benn, and Collins were all a level or two below Jones, Toney,...
DeFail accomplished about as much as he was capable of. He actually did very well for a guy with ZERO skill and brains.
Oh and I don't wanna hear all the bullshit Froch spouts about "Kessler was injured going into the Calzaghe fight." Give me a break! Look, I like...
If I'm being fair to Froch, I think he was getting a little long in the tooth by time he fought Groves. But he was in his prime when he fought...
I agree 100% with Irish. If you look close, Froch's resume isnt all that better. And what REALLY matters is that Joe clearly beat a peak Kessler -...
On accomplishments? Perhaps. Head-to-head, Toney should be near the list. Toney without question beats Froch and Kessler. I'd take him over Calz...
I'm no fan of Froch nor Calz, so I can answer objectively... Joe would have beaten the crap outta Froch.
I'm convinced that Froch stalks Calz's home at night.
I've become so hooked to old fights on YT that I don't even miss the current scene anymore.
