The Benitez that beat Duran vs Vargas is basically a mismatch. Nando's chances of beating that El Radar are virtually none.
I absolutely think that the 94-96 Quartey would have beaten Vargas. The faded, inactive Quartey took 4 rounds off of him.
Maybe something like Sumbu Kalambay vs Joey Giardello. Both were beautiful technicians.
Rolly is a very big lightweight. Size won't be the issue here. The difference will be that Davis has a helluva lot more speed, ability, skill, and...
Well yeah, obviously Hopkins-Vargas would have been a gross mismatch. On size, and on ability. Vargas vs any middleweight great is a mismatch....
Tank vs Rolly is official. Dec. 5 at Staples Center, on Showtime PPV. The build-up figures to be highly entertaining with trash talk, but Rolly...
I dont see Terry as being good enough to call him a mismatch over Vargas. I remember like 20-25 years ago, I viewed Norris as almost like being on...
Yeah, but Norris-Vargas isn't a mismatch at all. Terry is the favorite, and would probably win, but Nando is live. Same with Curry-Vargas. I...
Hilton has a legit chance against Canelo if you match both at 20. In fact, I think the 20-year-old Hilton was better than the 20-year-old Canelo....
Arum is really sharp as Hell for a 115 year old man, he really is. It would have taken Biden 10 years to process Coppinger's question. Bob...
Ayala was far more talented than Golota.
Its a pretty clear gap.
Are you being serious? Are you REALLY debating Holy's chin as on par with Ali's?? Lmao!
Ironically, Lopez choked on Bud daily. That was his fuckin problem.
Wilfred Benitez vs Luis Rodriguez That's not a matchup for action, but its a hard-on for purists.
Lopez would probably choke against Bud. He just didn't have it upstairs. Lopez would fuck up guys like Porter and Thurman though.
Probably one sided tbh. I think Chapo would annihilate Chico
Ortiz vs Chavez. The style clash is amazingly compelling. Happy Lora vs Lionel Rose: I would say Jofre is my favorite bantamweight, but these...
Yeah, that part really adds insult to injury.
Benitez's power at 140 is highly underrated. See his fights with Tony Petronelli and Ray Chavez as proof. He wasn't some frail kid at 140 - he was...
If Taylor says fuck and keeps going, all that's gonna happen is that he's open himself up to the brilliant counterpunching of Benitez, and he...
I think there's somewhat of a chance of Taylor stopping Bradley. Timmy fighting hard would just open him up for counter after counter.
Who wins?
Curry would be best served to take this fight inside. He was a very good infighter, whereas Quartey couldn't infight at all. At distance, the...
Mid 80s Curry vs mid 90s Ike. My feelings on this matchup have shifted. I used to say Curry would have picked Ike apart, but now I dont know. I...
Mike had a three fight period - Francis, Saverese, Golota - where he showed some vintage Tyson flashes. But yes, as you said, the Golota fight was...
Knowing how good Golota was in 96-97, it really is phenomenal what Lewis did to him, and I dont even like Lewis.
Who wins? The Nelson that stopped Gomez versus the Ramos that stopped Davey Moore. Well, sadly more than just stopped him.... I think Nelson...
Bradley have a chance? Or is the talent gap too big?
Bowe on his worst day is better than AJ on his best day.
