Then Roy never won the light heavy belt.
There are ways to argue otherwise, but I generally say that the WBO titles became legit when Oscar beat Rafael Ruelas ~1995. They had some...
[1] Bullshit you can't. The dynamics of the two sports are extremely similar in almost every way. [2] Baseball is not similar in almost every...
There are 4 titles. And with Byrd and Ruiz holding two titles, you are talking about titles #3 and #4 being unified.
Look at the bright side--he'll no longer be avoided.
Very interested in seeing the numbers.
True fight faNs get the spanish package even if they can't understand spanish.
Amen.
It's because he was so successful as an amateur...ended up with a winning streak of like 4 years and a gold medal at the olympics. Winning the...
Williams by KO8. Hurts Verno in the first round badly. Verno can do everything Quintana can do so it's not that hard to imagine Verno winning,...
I put a lot of weight on amateur success and I have been very big on both Andre's from the beginning. No way is Andrade noticeably more athletic...
I can see that. Maybe Butterbean and Pernell Whitaker, too.
geesh...vera coming off of a ko defeat of a highly rated prospect...kirkland being mr. aim to please the viewers....it was a very okay fight to...
That wasn't your point. Does "any" mean "any but pryor"?
When they fight, it should be for a title.
TyC did end up televising this fight at midnight central time. And it wasn't listed on the television schedule. I just lucked out and found it....
all these rules...i get confused. : )
Aaron Pryor would disagree.
TyC still doesn't have this fight listed, but I'll be surprised if they don't televise it. Garay's fights usually are. And Garay should win....
I'm looking at "most" trash, not just trash. I don't even remember there being much trash talk between these two, only that Hopkins said he would...
Damn right I'm in the know, asshole. Except about Valero. I don't know where he is now at all. :lol:
Bowe was one of my least favorite fighters when he was active and at one time I would have loved for him to get his ass kicked. But this is just...
Fear of satellite piracy, particularly from bars I assume, meant that King's ppv cards were not shown on satellite (big dish). This locked out a...
Oh really? So when a champion decides to not defend against the 'best', then it's okay to strip him? Or if he doesn't 'fight often enough'? Or if...
You can't make anyone fight more. And you 'one title' guys invariably don't believe in stripping titles. The ones who need to be protected are...
This is like bringing up a 6-cylinder Camaro when talking about exotic sports cars. The trash talking lasted all of about 2 days and was forgotten.
He fights just like Steven Luevano (or JMM). Very fundamentally sound. Very technical. Very good. Not overly watchable most of the time, though.
Height and reach are rarely the deciding factor in a fight. Tam is right.
This isn't always true. The #1 college pitcher is often major league capable right away and if he has any 'trick' pitches or 'funk', he can be...
This is a great post.
