I think a no contest is warranted. I have eyes. I saw the headbutt (on replay) and it was a very hard headbutt. The follow-up KO punch occurred...
and who says they didn't? People gain weight by eating and lose it by living. The fighter knows how hard it is to lose weight and knows how much...
Yes, but I think they also fell back on controversial scoring. Which was bullshit. And it was a different sanctioning body. Regardless, either...
Oh really? Explain.
How do you propose a team can make a fighter lose weight? Sure, you do things that help, i.e. hiring a dietitian and whatnot, but the...
Monitor all you want. Weight is the responsibility of the fighter and not really anyone else. There is nothing magical about making weight. You...
I count on Mitchell Kane's Fightbeat posts for this information. Like everyone else around here.
The WBC needs to man up and withdraw their sanctioning of the bouts. It's that easy; it's that hard. (to quote an Unforgiven song)
Sort of. The WBO kept Barrera as its champ after he got robbed against Morales 1. I think it's happened in another fight, too, but I can't place it.
Yes.
The best ams will still be the best bets to be the best pros. Harder to follow the ams than it used to be. As much as televised boxing has...
Huh? edit: Oh, I see where the quote came from. Andrade is the most talented guy on the team (maybe Rau'shee) so it is like getting dlh or roy....
agree when else has it happened? I knew the Roy time, but that's the only one I know of. Surprising that it took down to your post before someone...
Agree.
I think I was the same as Lederman that whole fight. But, I was scoring before seeing his score. Juarez's just did so little in the rounds that I...
Good post.
Pick some rounds I was wrong in. There should be 4 or so you disagreed with me about.
Which 3 did you/could you see giving to Katsidis?
I am not big mike. I've always been mikE on boxing boards.
Rds 1 and 8-12 were all possible katsidis rounds.
Good post. And it compounds because they often act like every round they scored for one guy isn't arguable. Sure, Teddy always has his one even...
agree
it's hard to score with hbo doing the mega spin
115-113 kat 116-112 diaz 115-113 diaz
the ring canvas sucks..way too slippery r12 pretty close, but diaz 7-4-1 diaz
r11 led gave last rd to kat kat a bit quicker nice r by diaz though very close rd i had kat ahead, but last 30 all diaz even 6-4-1 diaz
r10 led gave last rd to diaz punch stats favor diaz like 26-15 i think kat close i have it 6-4, but probably wider for diaz
r9 kat has more snap now except for a huge uppercut with 35 secs to go, kat has very big round and diaz does very little diaz misses a lot more...
r8 probably kat round diaz didn't do much punch stats were even 6-2
r7 diaz's defense has been too good since r1 kat not hitting as hard or as often diaz slowed up a bit, but on purpose it looked like diaz rd 6-1
