Yeah, you rather missed the point I'm afraid. MTF
I remember reading an article in KO Boxing in 1996 which basically said that Leonard had fought a lot of mooks and struggled in most of his fights...
An unbelievably corrupt fight. Unbelievably corrupt. MTF
That's a very fair point and oft forgotten. Most ATG fighters have only a handful of wins against other 'great' fighters. When a great fighter...
None of those guys were better than Minter. Especially Graham, who was basically awkward and decent at world level and nothing whatsoever more. MTF
The referee was abysmal. No question about that. MTF
Punched in the face a lot by noted hard puncher + first incursion at a higher weight + headbutt to the face + terrible training camp + brain...
A common misconception: WBC rules at the time stated that a fighter who is knocked out of the ring got 20 seconds, not 10, to get back up. Once he...
In his defence, he got discouraged because Benn was punching him very hard, repeatedly in the face. I don't think Canelo would have been able to...
Hang on...you picked a fight wrong? Well I never... MTF :lol:
Hopkins was a dominant champ in a very weak era but, in his pomp, he generally handled the rubbish around him with the ease you'd expect from a...
I am on record, more times than I can count, criticising Hopkins' MW resume. It is IMO arguably the worst resume attached to a consensus ATG...
The Jap who is such a good fighter you can't remember his name? Cherifi was absolutely dreadful. He lost to Reid and every single other...
Yes, Hopkins MW resume is fucking thin. Not as thin as that useless cunt Joppy, but thin. MTF
Because the guys he fought and beat were absolutely fucking crap. It's all well and good saying 'he was unbeaten and he was a champ and he beat...
Indeed. MTF :lol:
One. Two at the absolute most. One punch should do it. MTF
"This has a fackin'...a fackin'...a fackin' story, innit? That's what cants don't facking get'. MTF :lol:
It isn't completely irrelevant. It's just not as relevant as his fights at the weight in questions. Nowhere near as relevant, in fact. MTF
"The Godfather? Facking load of bollox. Takes about free 'ours to get going." I'm fucking doubled up here mind. MTF :lol::lol:
I'll pipe up, it was facking Loaded...facking, facking slags. MTF :lol::lol::lol:
Presumably you are basing this on his demolition of Joppy, because there is no other evidence to suggest that Tito was as effective at 160 than he...
If Joppy had fought in that era, you'd have never heard of him. He'd be no more than a stepping-stone type of fighter. He'd certainly be nowhere...
His best wins are a very contentious win over Howard Eastman and beating a 147 year old Duran. That's it. People in this thread embarrassing...
Werd. MTF :lol:
History also shows that many, many fighters are far less effective when they step up in weightclass. Unless a fighter has a resume which allows...
He's a brave little cunt but he's rubbish. Simple as that. MTF
Aye. Beating Joppy proves a whole lot. MTF
PR and I have plenty of disagreements round these parts but on this he is absolutely spot on. Tito proved zero as a MW. He was a superb,...
At 160? All of them. MTF
Separate names with a comma.
