I agree. I would actually rather see Pryor-Chavez than Pryor-Pac.
Joshua carries his power for longer than 4-5 rounds. Usyk is getting flattened.
I would love to see a Duran vs Trinidad matchup at 147. Of course Tito is dangerous for Duran at midrange - Trinidad is dangerous for everyone at...
Yeah, there's a shot he could pull a Carter. But it's not the most likely scenario. It's more likely Griffith would be too good for him.
I guess you missed when he dismantled arguably the biggest puncher in welterweight history in under 5 rounds. [MEDIA] Always looking for an...
Nah, not really.
The man would go on to beat Iran Barkley 9 years later. Leonard 1 was simply the end of his prime. He still found much success post-prime.
Jack Mosley wasn't the greatest corner guy, although to be fair, he doesn't belong. Theres been much worse. Just saying, a great trainer could...
I dont see what Chavez's chance would be, but my fault for kind of getting us off topic. They were both memorable fights, and there hasn't been...
The other thing that jumped out about re-watching both is how much better Duran was compared to Chavez.
Yes, that last part is my entire point. And it wasn't the conclusion I was expecting to reach last night, as I truly remembered Chavez-Taylor as...
Fond memories of DLH-Vargas. I don't mean the fight itself, but the build-up on here and other forums was HUUUGGGGEE. Predictions were split down...
It was a close, but clear decision. Duran landed the cleaner shots, got hit less in return, and controlled the tenor of the fight. But it's...
Humping and clutching? LOL. As usual, you give no Duran credit. Honestly, when's the last time you saw Leonard-Duran 1? Duran was not only...
Mannnnn after rewatching this, all i can think is Montreal Duran would beat the ever living fucking shit outta Crawford and Spence.
It terms of exchanges, it wasn't even close. Duran-Leonard had far superior exchanges, and beautiful countering from both.
So, I rewatched both tonight, back to back. Its only fair, as its been quite a number of years since I rewatched either. Yes, I side with Jel and...
I dont mean to be harsh on Chavez, as I'm actually a very big JCC fan, but I suspect Chavez loses to all three. The other three can match him for...
Can't go wrong with that choice.
I probably go Pac vs Duran, then match Pryor vs Chavez. Pac is the only one of the three with a legitimate chance of beating Duran. I dont think...
If you could make one matchup between these four, which would it be? Duran Chavez Pac Pryor There's no literally no wrong answer here, as any of...
The other thing that jumps out is how fucking AWESOME a fight 1990 Chavez vs 1980 Pryor would have been.
Great post. Yeah, Chavez fight or no Chavez fight, Mel Taylor was never gonna be a Leonard or Jones. He just didn't have the tools and the...
Watching Chavez-Taylor the thing that's MOST apparent is that they'll never be another network or streaming service that ever comes within 10...
I disagree. Mel was a joy to watch, even though he wasn't in Leonard's league.
He has a strong case.
I should have mentioned Kid Gavilan. The Keed was an exceptional talent. The fact that was so fast, so creative, and literally never ever ever got...
Yeah, I would agree that those are the four most talented heavyweights, only I would add Lewis to the list.
I fully agree. Marciano has never been mentioned as a talented guy until now, but he was.
All fighters on the elite level have to work hard. Some work harder than others, but regardless of how hard they train, 99% can't do the things...
