Ceferino Garcia is an interesting case. He didn't have the consistency or dominance of a Galaxy or Chang, but his wins over HoFers Fred Apostoli...
Kingpetch not make anyone's list?
I think a potential counter-argument is that, for the span of about 60-70 fights (about as many as the other fighters had in their entire...
Can't argue much with 1-4 above. After that it's a free for all.
I should add that I feel much more confident about my top 10 than I do the bottom 10. A lot of the names in the bottom 10 would probably be...
I remember being conflicted about who to root for when Gatti fought Manfredy, as I enjoyed both fighters around that time.
Holyfield against Tyson the first time.
Not everyone goes in on their 1st ballot, though.
And in the same vein, Canelo - it's silly at this point to deny that he's anything other than a 1st ballot HoFer. Also, Andre Ward.
The Klitschkos?
I have the EXACT same fighters in my all-time top 5, just in a different order. This is exactly what my 7-9 would look like, with Walker rated...
I don't see that a thread for ranking WWs has been done recently, so I'll make one. Here's my attempt at a list: 1. Robinson 2. Walker 3....
Raul Marquez vs. Yori Boy Campas.
Jose Medel handed ATG Fighting Harada the first stoppage loss of his career and featured in an exciting fight with Eder Jofre before he won the...
Berchelt-Vargas I & II Salido-Roman
I would lean toward the Buttery one, although I do so hesitantly as I don't think he ever had to demonstrate his prowess against a WW as great as...
Joe Medel vs. Jesus Pimentel probably epitomizes this thread: [MEDIA]
I'm guessing you want strictly Mexican, as opposed to Mexican-American? I ask because I happen to be watching Jessie Vargas vs. Josesito Lopez on...
I've argued in other threads that I think Cuevas was a deceiving fighter - he may have thrown wide, looping punches, but they were deceptively...
I think Harada's all-around speed, versatility, and unpredictable attack allows him to snatch a decision.
There are some definite similarities. They both were (literally) bone-breaking punchers who threw wide, sweeping haymakers. I think Cuevas had a...
And yet he was facing a 4th & 2 from midfield earlier in the game, and he chose to punt. It made no sense that he chose to "play it safe" at that...
"Thanks for the draft picks... bye Doug." :Jest:
I think Gavilan has too many advantages here - i.e.: height, range, boxing skill, natural size, plus he can match Armstrong's speed and pace.
Agreed, although I would make Emile and Luis the favorites here based on their all-around speed and versatility.
If the Steelers had come to play in Week 17, they could've eliminated the Browns from the playoffs right then and there. Instead, they chose to...
Is it confirmed that Kamara will be back?
First Hitler, now this. How will history remember us? :Facepalm:
Whichever one has Dundee in his corner.
I think those are justifiable. -Gavilan, with his height and range and Napoles' tendency to bleed, probably poses the tougher stylistic matchup...
Separate names with a comma.
