Who wins?
Teddy, can you pass the salt? "Ya know, salt is interesting. Its like a jab to set up peppah, the right hand. And when you put em in...
Yeah, I think prime-for-prime MAB beats Marquez. Marquez matches up more favorably with Morales.
To echo REED, for all your disparaging of Hamed's resume, who in the living Hell had MARQUEZ beaten at the time? Not Naz, who btw has a pretty...
This. Not much more to add.
Depends on when they fought. By 2000-01, Marquez would beat Hamed. Had they got it on circa 97-98, I'm not sure if JMM is ready for a peak Hamed.
REED is correct. Marquez wasn't perceived as a dangerous, and formidable fighter in the sport until the Pedan fight. No one gave a flying fuck...
Castillo.
Marquez is an overrated fighter. A great with an all time greats number. As it relates to this thread, Sanchez was an ATG independent of being...
All fights when he was more seasoned. Sanchez was quicker than Marquez, and one of the most accurate punchers ever. No reason to believe he...
When did Pac ever see punches coming from a mile away?
Another thing about Sanchez that I would note is that he was a pretty big, solidly built featherweight, and a naturally strong guy at that. His...
This is old news. I remember Bowe saying this awhile ago. Rock Newman is indeed a shady character. And if he's fucking Bowe's daughter, he's also...
Perhaps me characterizing Marquez as "robotic" was a stretch, but what I meant was he was a lot more regimented and straight up than Sal. Sanchez...
Agreed. It hurts Stevie that he doesn't have the punch to bother Hector.
That's sad as Hell that he's reduced to this. Bowe by far came out the worst of the heavyweight "Big 4." Lewis was good with his money...
I can't lie, Plant has had a tragic life. He lost both his daughter and mother in a very short span. I won't really partake in the jokes. I have a...
Hector is the favorite here, but can Stevie win?
I don't see how Barrera ever holds Nelson off. I really can't see it. Barrera didn't have the firepower of Sanchez, nor did he have Sal's chin...
I also watched Zarate vs Jorge Torres last night. This was pre-title winning Zarate. [MEDIA] Zarate was a tremendous technician, which he...
Yes, Rosario-Davis is also a good fight. For LB 4 LB, if you wanna see a good Rosario fight, and don't mind if its a fight that he gets fucked up...
I would agree with Fenech by UD, but the I wouldn't count the Ramos from the Moore fight out. He was very physically imposing, and was an...
To be fair, Marquez would give Sanchez the best fight outta the Mexican trio. I basically see Sanchez wiping his ass with Barrera and Morales, in...
You can be a fluid combination puncher yet still have a robotic style. Mikkel Kessler is a perfect example. I just mean that Sal was a lot more...
Well, Rosario-Ramirez II is the best Rosario action fight. If Lb 4 Lb wants to get a measure of Rosario at his best, then watch his annihilation...
This will be the first time ever that I root for Brooklyn over Queens.
Back to the skill regression point I made, I specifically would note infighting - its a largely lost art nowadays compared to 30-40 years ago....
Good point.
I went from overrating Sanchez when I was young, then I went through years long phase when I called him overrated. Been rewatching him all week,...
Great breakdown, only I would add Saldivar to that list with Marcel, Arguello, Pedroza.
