Finally a MM that McGuigan wins. I would take Barry by decision. Hafey was strong and a bigger puncher, but McGuigan's reach and skill level...
Chico was too big for Gomez. Gomez was P4P better by a mile, but Gomez wasn't effective at 130.
Possible for Nov-Dec.
Has Jeff a chance?
Who wins?
Can Terry pull this off?
I didn't originate it. The boxing community as a whole started calling him Cherry Garcia when he went through his long stretch of fighting cherry...
I would also add that Danny at 147 got outboxed and got a gift over Lamont Peterson. He is not beating Mark Breland.
Would Chico have any chance? Or is Nelson just too good?
I would take Breland with no hesitation whatsoever. Danny did fuck all at 147. Lost to every good welterweight he faced. No reason to believe he...
A thread to recognize some of the main strengths and best performances of one of the greatest offensive machines the sport has ever had.
At 118 and 126
McGugian's style was made for JMM to shine. Barry would have his moments, especially early, but JMM progressively picks him apart. Then by the...
Agreed again.
Agreed.
I've never made an excuse for Spaddy before, but Spaddy did slip between 99 when he beat Cardona and 03 when he got outfought by Dorin.
Also rewatched Arguello-Olivares for the first time in years. Truly one of the greatest all time featherweight wars. That Arguello left hook that...
Rewatched Nelson vs Gomez. Great war that really doesn't get enough recognition. Nelson proved to be far too strong for Bazooka, but Gomez, as he...
I would definitely count out Nelson in a rematch. Nelson wasn't THAT far from his prime when he fought Sal... he was essentially the same Nelson...
Marquez was pretty impressive here: [MEDIA]
Many would argue these are the two best light heavys of all time. Who wins? I certainly think it's competitive either way.
I hated both equally, so I have no dog in this fight. I think the Spadafora who schooled Cardona has the edge here, and would outbox the Baby Cow.
Assuming they meet in 1980. The Hawk have any chance?
McGirt was a better fighter than Breland, however, I find this matchup very interesting because Breland had some pretty notable physical...
Would Vern have had a chance?
McDogg actually once said that Bradley would beat McGirt because of the 24-hour weigh-in. For some odd reason, he overlooked the fact that McGirt...
The two greatest Cuban fighters of all time. Both top 10 all time at 147. Who wins?
Back to the actual topic of the thread - so far we have people who think Marquez, Pac, and possibly Nelson in a rematch are the only guys who...
