dingaan thobela was very decent at 135, but a horrible champ at 168.
He doesn't. Why would he? King has sold out a venue in St. Louis with Spinks at least once. That's never happening with Verno unless he fights...
Think about how clean the canvas would be with Marquez constantly cleaning it with his shorts.
We need Jake to give us past ppv numbers for previous lower weight fights. I'm curious how the morales barrera pacq and tszyu/judah fights compare.
Thompson is the US answer to Akinwande. Relatively hidden, but very, very good. Imo, he's been the best US heavy for a while. . Too bad for...
Personally, I don't think Kessler should fight a someone as good and as hard-punching as Miranda coming off of a loss. Maybe his management came...
Fightnews now has Miranda calling out Bute with his usual venom saying that he'll go to Bute's backyard and Bute is a coward like Kessler if he...
Makes sense. However, this is where a guy like King knows how the game is played...do a little lobbying and make this fight for an interim...
There are only 2 ways Ottke isn't on every list. 1. You've only seen the Mundine fight. 2. You haven't seen any of his fights.
Marquez by dec
I think Cole is a good ref who made a terrible mistake. . I thought the states honored the suspensions of other states and the national board?
This is, of course, completely implausible. The last four champions I remember retiring with a belt were Halmich, Ottke, Lewis, and Carbajal. All...
I've got: Dollaway on one fight: tko2 over 9-1 joe bunch Rivera on two fights: tapout 2 loss to 6-1 tim Kennedy and tko 3 win over naseem levy....
'more telling blows' is something everyone factors in. 'controlled the distance' is not a very significant factor in my scoring, but it is part...
Interesting that MSG is not mentioned as a potential buyer. . Nothing wrong with this card. It's not like we don't see worse on a regular basis...
dammit. If I had just stopped typing after "Octavio Lara!!!"...
I prefer fights like the Casamayor fight and I'll be surprised if it isn't my foy at the end of the year. Objectively, I don't think it is...
He's excellent. Very fast, very skilled, hits hard. Never tested, but stamina looked fine when he had to go 12 for the first time. . You never...
Just watched this fight and you were right. Beforehand, I would have accused you of being stoned. I thought Lee was far better than Vera and far...
some thoughts on the fight... . 1. Damn it. . 2. Katisidis/Gatti comparisons are stupid. Yeah, they are both exciting, but they don't fight alike....
Agree. Katisidis' defense wasn't that bad. He does a lot of good things, he's just so aggressive there are openings.
Short of poisoning a water bottle, there ain't no trainer that's going to be the difference in getting Forbes to beat dlh. . And the one who...
hmmmm, i thought...a prospect being compared to floyd that i really don't think i've heard of... . so google.... . so...
Floyd's pro wrestling career has apparently made him an even better actor. . As if he is serious.
Only a good fight for Dirrell if he is guaranteed a top 10 rating after it. He should win it because he's so much faster, but Hanshaw is good. ....
I agree. Pacquiao has every right to complain about their first fight when an admitted scoring error cost him a deserved win.
Well, I've been wrong before. But, unlike a lot of people, I'll back it up with a trade bet or whatever. I've seen Campbell look pretty mediocre...
I think Khan beats Campbell now, perhaps easier than he would beat D. Diaz. Very important that Khan fights D. Diaz before Juan Diaz, though.
I agree it sounds like sour grapes, I'd say it is sour grapes, but that doesn't mean he might not be right. Think of Lennox saying Rahman got...
I don't think what he is saying is so ridiculous. E Calzaghe is blaming Macc's loss on Macc instead of giving Haye any more credit that he gave...
