-Blue Roses of Havana was basically an arty rewrite of The Lady from Shanghai. I could see every plot twist coming. -Four Delightful Evenings...
Berg was an oddity - he was a terrific inside fighter, but a poor outside one, despite having a tall and lanky physique. I think Tszyu matches up...
Seven, Taxi Driver, and Blade Runner are considered neo noir? Is The Usual Suspects neo noir?
Duran's collaboration with Nile Rodgers was pretty badass: [MEDIA]
Not sure who's the best of these, but I'd probably favor him over Tippy Larkin, Cotto, Bradley, and Taylor.

I can't wait till I have an hour and 40 minutes free to watch this. Looks like it'll make for a pretty fun movie night. :Jest:
1. The Usual Suspects 2. The Passion of the Christ 3. Blood Simple 4. The Terminator 5. Night of the Living Dead Runners up: Texas Chainsaw...
1. Murder on the Orient Express 2. 12 Angry Men 3. Dog Day Afternoon 4. Serpico 5. The Hill
I don't know the extent of Hearns' achievements as an amateur, but he was not held in as high regard as Leonard. Many people felt Leonard...
He was a skinny LW at the time and was known more for his speed and mobility than for his power.
Tapia actually did avenge the 1st fight - only to be robbed much harder. :Mad2:
That's probably the same 5 films I would have on my list, but I might play around with the order a bit. Maybe, 1. Saving Private Ryan 2. Jaws 3....
1. Blood Simple 2. Miller's Crossing 3. Fargo 4. No Country 5. Hudsucker Proxy Overall, I have mixed feelings about Coen Bros. films, but the 1-3...
My list: 1. Barry Lyndon 2. 2001 3. Paths of Glory 4. Full Metal Jacket 5. Clockwork Orange
But getting back to the thread topic: Mario Martinez vs. Azumah Nelson
Basilio-Saxton II
Could Martin outbrawl Lopez in a manner similar to how James Scott did? Martin may not have been as skilled or polished as Scott, but he was...
Holmes-Weaver might've been the best HW fight ever IMO. It was also Weaver's best career performance IMO, despite it ending up a loss for him.
LMAO at the Rocky music. Anyway, I'd say that was a clear Gomez round. He had Pintor hurt BADLY over the first half of the round, slightly edged...
Has anyone mentioned Tippy Larkin's victory over Billy Graham yet? Well, now I have! :D [MEDIA]
I'd make Dariusz a slight favorite based on his jab, workrate, and natural size and strength, but I think it's questionable whether Dariusz could...
Rosario-Ramirez II Rosario-Randall II
I actually meant to post those in the "rematches better than the original thread." My bad.
The judges were swayed by a late burst from Holmes that briefly rocked Norton after he had dominated the first 2 minutes of the round. It's often...
Round 9 of Morales-Maidana Round 9 of Jofre-Medel I Round 1 of Olivares-Lopez Round 6 Marciano-Moore Round 8 Saad-Lopez II Round 8 Saad-Johnson II
I voted Lewis-Holy I. At least in Whitaker-Chavez, Chavez was actually making an effort to win the rounds he was undeservedly given. Holy was...
Cotto wins at 147, where Phillips wasn't at his best and was practically a journeyman. Tougher to call at 140, where Cotto seemed a lot more...
I think Clottey makes it his (ugly) kind of fight and wins an ugly decision.
Ray was very tall for a WW of that era, but his height also didn't come at the expense of his durability. The 6-foot-plus WWs that came afterward...
Separate names with a comma.
