Fightbeat must be the only boxing forum anywhere where Roberto Duran, who lost one of his first 73 fights, is described in all seriousness as...
How can someone's 'run at welter' be strengthened by wins at 154? That's before you consider, as you say, that DLH was old and nearly won and that...
Tell that to Sly. Apparently Floyd's cherry-picking was 'a myth'. MTF :lol:
To reiterate - the 'certain defenses' I questioned are ALL of Mayweather's welterweight fights. Every single one of them. MTF
AgPUERTO'd MTF
None of what you just posted deals with the facts of Mayweather's welterweight reign. Just strawmen and irrelevant bits and pieces about politics....
And a mutha fuckin' flip-fone! MTF
'The carefully applied criteria' I applied are called 'facts': 1. It is a FACT that Baldomir was universally regarded as a very weak linear 147lb...
After a hiatus to fight at lightmiddle, Mayweather cemented his tremendous legacy at welterweight by decisioning Robert Guerrero - a former...
:lol: He won his welterweight title against Baldomir - a man universally accepted to be one of the weakest champions in the history of that...
:lol: MTF
Long article but I enjoyed it. Hagler seems to get more bitter about it with every passing year. SRL confirming once more that he was only happy...
You said that 'Mayweather didn't cherry-pick either, that's a myth'. That is literally so false it is hilarious. MTF :lol:
Eubanks wasn't an Uncle Tom, though, aye? MTF
Sly hates Bruno. Hates him. Bruno was the popular black man with white friends in Britain when Sly was being insulted and attacked by racists...
Like the proverbial clown. MTF :lol:
:lol: Fuck's sake. MTF
Joshua is not as good as any of those fighters. He never will be, either. MTF
Let the record reflect. No-one is saying Bruno was some awesome fighter. He clearly wasn't. But he was a good, solid heavyweight with proper power...
Fucking Sly :lol: 'Laying out Charles Martin shows you have proven yourself the best heavyweight in the world, but being ahead on the cards after...
All of that is basically opinion and mostly based on the fact that you are heavily biased against Bruno because you think he is a British 'Uncle...
Bruno fought pretty much on equal terms with Spoon and was ahead until he gassed and got iced very late on. The exact same summary can be applied...
Sly thinks Joshua has already proven himself the best heavyweight on the planet. Pay that bam no heed. MTF
I know all about Bruno. I know he has a fine jab, legitimate KO power (esp. in the right hand) and plenty of guts. I also know he gasses badly...
That's because he wasn't. He was hurt by a decent shot but never looked like being stopped at all and he recovered quickly enough to win pretty...
The BBC reporting that this fight is close to being confirmed for September: http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/boxing/36680280 MTF
AgREED. Abraham's peek-a-boo style is made to make Eubanks look good. MTF
I think Parker is his mandatory. Might be wrong, though, and I cannot see Hearn and his cronies giving up AJ's bauble. MTF
Joshua v Parker would go a long way towards showing what Joshua is really about. Parker has a lot of obvious flaws but he is confident, hits hard...
