Just you, buddy. MTF
Khan being a muslim didn't help, but his relative unpopularity in the UK was more about the bullshit spouted about him than anything else. The...
He has elite level button-mashing speed, to be fair. He's very affletic, and has plenty of heart, too. And his body punching is good, when he...
It doesn't really matter. Most of those in attendance don't actually care who is fighting. All that matters is being there. MTF
Loads of mugs will be lapping this up. Loads of them. I can sit here all day and lament at the state of the whole thing but Hearn doesn't give a...
For anyone who hasn't seen this: [MEDIA] MTF
Riddick holding a press conference to put a title belt in a bin was bizarre then and even more so now. Danny Williams fighting with one arm and...
That was the obvious one I thought of when reading this back and forth. Greece at the Euro's is another one. So is Denmark at Euro '92, and the...
The phrase I believe I used was 'angst-filled confrontation'. MTF
Another oft forgotten fact round these parts. Hopkins spent the last three rounds trying to get Calzaghe DQ'd for non-existent low blows and...
I actually think Canelo wins, legitimately, this time. MTF
'A lousy pro'. MTF :D
Calzaghe's resume is definitely thin, for a man who had twenty-odd defences. His best wins are probably Eubanks (who you don't rate at all), Reid...
He stopped all bar a small handful of fighters before he fought Joe. MTF
Pemberton needed two goes to beat him decisively (I think?) Lucas beat him well but I wouldn't say he looked 'great'. Johnson lost to him. MTF
Your opinion on Sheika ignores the fact that, although he wasn't very good, he was a horrible, dirty, spoiling bastard who very few people looked...
Calzaghe did not beat a prime Hopkins, certainly. But it was another very good win over an ATG in the midst of a ridiculous run of form for a man...
Eubanks was on a documentary on SKY a few years back with Collins, Calzaghe, Jones Jr and Ritchie fucking Woodhall. He was very honest about not...
Not sure. Certainly not Arguello, though. I have his systematic destruction of Jim Watt on DVD, my phone and my laptop. It cheers me up every time...
That gets forgotten about by several round these parts. In his ten fights after the Calzaghe fight (where he was 'decrepit'), Hopkins lost once,...
What we mostly know about 'Lacy's limitations' came from Calzaghe utterly exposing them. Might be an idea to crdit the guy who gave us this more...
He was an unbeaten titlist who had demolished almost everyone he had faced up to that point. Hindsight shows that he wasn't exactly a stellar...
This argument is never going to be resolved on this board. The same positions are reiterated by the same posters every time. Lacy was a very good...
He definitely said it, or words close to it. It's in one of his books. MTF
Benn actually is on record saying that, in his view, a jab is a waste of a punch: 'what is the point of throwing a jab when you can throw a left...
This fight will sell 40,000 tickets. Very few of those in attendance will be actual 'boxing fans', in the same sense that most of us are. Hearn...
Obvious cash out for both in the offing. Khan is old and way past his 'best', whatever that was, while Brook finally stepped up his comp and was...
Nigel Benn was allergic to throwing jabs. I honestly don't recall him ever throwing one. MTF
Taylor basically punched him round the ring for five rounds. Pascal hit him with about a hundred flush power shots - it was Froch taking all those...
Was the first name that came to my mind, too. He was like a sloth with boxing gloves on and got hit flush a zillion times a fight. MTF
Separate names with a comma.
