There needs to be a "worst Lampley cheerleading/hyperbole moments" thread. Most of it would involve De La Hoya, though there are many other...
This is completely incorrect. 147 was a negotiated weight, you would be aware of this if you followed boxing as closely as you follow the...
Hopkins-Allen (the one before the DLH fight)
Pre 135 Pacquiao's resume is stellar, no argument there. But I've provided perfectly valid criticisms for why it isn't even close to "one of the...
Floyd fought Marquez at a catchweight of 145, he made the weight of 147 which was the actual weight limit for the fight as it was a welterweight...
that blows.
And the irony is that Shane fights like a Mexican, and has always been proud to say so..
What's funnier is that I was a sane Pac fan in 2001, meaning I'm an ex-Pac fan in 2011. You probably hadn't heard of Pac in 2001, but whenever...
I won't even bother arguing this, I have no problem conceding that I am biased here (huge fan of both Hamed and Erik Morales). Styles make...
Camacho is bigger and considerably faster. Marquez might be able to time him and land a couple of shots, but wouldn't be able to stop him....
LOL I know right, it's like thinking Sugar Ray Leonard was seeking an unfair advantage when he fought Donny Lalonde, some people are just so...
This is relevant. Yes, making the welterweight champion come in at 145 for a welterweight championship fight is "not such a huge stipulation."...
"When he fought them" DLH had to come down to 147 and was well past his best already to begin with Cotto's name didn't come out of his mouth...
I'm predicting Shane's corner will stop it in the 8th a la DLH/Pac
Take a closer look at when he fought them and the stipulations he put on them.
If Khan had any kind of chin or any kind of discipline, he could win this fight. But in the real world, I would be shocked if Khan saw the second...
If all the fights you named can be used to CRITICIZE Duran's resume, LOADEDGLOVES NEVER EVER Wants to Hear ANYBODY Say that Roy Jones was "Shot"...
I agree it is a great win for Benitez and his best win. I don't take anything away from Benitez, who I am a fan of. "Crush" might be hyperbole...
Pacquiao could piss in your face and you'd swear it was raining sweet yellow nectar. You might be a Mosley "fan," but when it comes to Pacquiao,...
I dunno if someone else said that, but what I said was "A prime Duran crushes Benitez at 147." No exclamation points - those were Reed's, not mine.
It can help increase neck size and strengthen neck muscles. GH also thickens the cranium and jaw. All of that helps with taking a shot I'd...
haha I remember that Vivian Harris: "FLOYD GAYWEDDA IS SCARED OF ME! BROOKLYN!" Uncle Roger: "Brooklyn? The fuck is that? People get they...
Hamed would knock JuanMa into next week. Hamed would've never been competitive with JMM, considering MAB (an inferior fighter imo) stunk out...
Azumah by stoppage, agree w/ cdogg's analysis
Regardless, we know in retrospect what Leonard was now; we don't hold him to the perception of people at the time, because we know better now....
I think Pac is on EPO, probably an anabolic, and testosterone+GH. GH and EPO are both detectable in blood, and undetectable in urine. Designer...
I look at it as Pacquiao's making bullshit excuses to not take drug tests being the reason the fight was scrapped. Floyd agreed to every...
Panama Lewis' water mixing Alex Ariza's "protein cocktail" mixing
Let me ask you this: if Duran had retired after beating Leonard in Montreal, what would you have to criticize him on? He would be the #1...
DeJesus was better than Duran in their first fight (albeit a non-title fight). Duran beat a number of quality lightweights. Just because...
