On the undercard, Jorge Linares knocked out Gamaliel Diaz. Fightnews: In his first title defense, highly regarded WBC featherweight champion...
Check this out, Valero is actually the lead featured story on Yahoo.com. This is the lead in: The next Mike Tyson? Boxing sensation Edwin...
I refuse to go to the BS site anymore, due to the fact that I get inundated with pop ups, but this is no surprise based on the reports coming from...
I thought he said it sometime before the Mercer fight. Steward ended up largely being proven right about Lewis though (not about the lasting...
Which is about all he's been for the past half dozen or so fights.
:lol: Yeah, I remember the Lara hype...it lasted until about his first televised fight. I've seen some good and bad from Lee, but he's...
I'm not sure if it's his last big fight, or that Main Events is on par with Top Rank or GBP, but King is definitely on the decline...and has been...
I thought we were talking about Hopkins-DLH?
The coveted Fox Sports Premios Fighter of the Year.:lol:
You really needed two posts in this thread to convey your opinion of the division?
Not just Bowe...I think the shift came when the WBO had champions like DLH, Hamed, Calzaghe, Freitas, Tapia and Barrera. The status of the WBO...
Yep...and a very underappreciated fight. Both guys are coming off big wins...cruiserweight has been one of the most active divisions at the top...
I used to record just about anything and everything until a few years ago...now I do the opposite.
I'd go with Mayweather-Cotto and Williams-Margarito II. And I would rather see Forrest fight Roman Karmazin than DLH. As for Mosley, maybe a...
That fight would be a complete joke at this point. Lacy is DOA at light heavyweight. I'd rather see Showtime put some money into making a...
Three rounds was all he was going to win on his scorecard (and really, why is Lederman being used to support the scoring of a fight?). The only...
Yeah, most of the top welterweights are on HBO...so Berto might have more room to swim in Showtime's smaller pond. I guess there's talk of him...
Yeah, but his being the champ is based in large part off of a win two years ago (and deservedly so, I'm not arguing that point)...just that while...
I thought he lost. Lacy started alright the early rounds and appeared to stun Tsypko a couple times early...but I thought he was outboxed...
I noticed it too, though I don't think he barely lost.
It certainly made his performance against Tsypko appear to be more than just the result of injury.
It won't be. Which is why there must be some reason Taylor and his camp would want it at the higher weight. It will be interesting to see...
DLH wasn't considered that much of a test for Hopkins. Let's be honest about that. De La Hoya's decision over Sturm was easily one of the most...
From David Kolb: Top Rank is already planning Pavlik’s next fight, which should come at the end of June in Cleveland Browns Stadium,...
From interview with Greg Leon: GL: Obviously, you've got a guy like Pavlik, who has a lot of hometown fans by capturing the championship. Do...
From an interview with Greg Leon and Andre Berto: GL: My understanding is that Showtime is willing to offer you 3 fights for 2008 starting with...
Witter-Harris may deserve a mention. Ponce De Leon-Bautista another.
It's interesting how you say the thread degenerated, considering it started by posing a question of whether there was "any doubt" about the...
Judah was also one fight less (before the Mayweather fight) from when Baldomir beat him. The only credibility Baldomir has in this discussion is...
In those terms, Cotto's beaten one welterweight champion, a former welterweight champion (regarded at the time as the best champion) and a former...
