Mike Tyson, according to many
This is absolutely true, unless we accept a premise that modern heavyweights are bigger, and that the increased size, ripped physique or not, is...
I didn't see any luck there. Most experts picked Haye. The most accurate prediction was Bellew's who had sparred plenty with both and mentioned...
Not to forget David Haye (as I believe you'd want to:Jest:) But yeah, my conclusion is that Chisora is a pretty useful guy since everyone...
I don't think size difference should matter when we evaluate fighters within the same weight division, but I respect your take. Also, I thought...
Usyk had his hands full with shopworn Chisora, whom you labeled as bum:Confused:
Thx for the r-b-r :Ban:
Contrary to somewhat popular belief, Ruiz is not a big puncher. He isn't a tank who would walk through guys. Instead, he is a surprisingly quick...
Maybe the fact that people haven't been able to, like, go to the movies might affect the ratings of a movie event. Just a thought
I'd agree Browne was never s factor, even when he roided. He was somewhat popular for a while but that's about it. I agree the level of the...
Floyd Mayweather vs Logan Paul Special Exhibition Fight
Big Daddy Browne once feasted on shot Toney. Now, he gets smashed into pieces by some rugby player [MEDIA]
Not sure about that, tbh. If Eubank was both a big puncher and a vicious finisher (as you suggested), he should have way more stoppages over even...
I don't believe that's all there is to it. For a YouTube generation football is indeed too slow a game. I have noticed myself how I hang on the...
It is a difficult question for sure. I thought about this same as I recently read Roone Arledge's memoir. He talked a lot about producing sports,...
Unfortunately I am far from it, as professional boxing is a small sport here. I'd be more of a star if I called regional level hockey
In Finland pretty much everything is 'local' on a world scale, but I have called fights of Robert Helenius, Edis Tatli and Eva Wahlström who are...
Thx! Another point about "company shilling". I was never contacted by the channel nor the promoters about how I should call a fight. However it...
There is a difference between these two trades, which I realized only after trying them. In a blow by blow reporting, voice becomes essential. A...
Agreed. In fact, I'd say it was an excellent fight. Plenty of action, good pace and a nice climax in the last round. Especially I can't see the...
There's an interview of Jim Lampley from the Tito vs Mayorga weekend. It was done by some minor local channel, obviously an amateur production....
Don't know about that. In many ways he was the anti-establishment guy of his era, who asked tough questions, included politics in sports and added...
Cosell was an excellent sports journalist and renewed the trade to a good direction, but as a blow-by-blow boxing guy he was poor
It was the second, but you are correct. He missed every freaking punch. Even though Benevenuti's corner was indeed quick to stop it, Cosell had no...
I always appreciated HBO. I remember how much they got bashed when they were in business, but it was obvious that they'd be sorely missed once...
While I find this to be a terrible idea, it gives me a chuckle that FIFA and UEFA are losing their temper over this. FIFA didn't care that much...
Good post, although I disagree with some of your premises. Firstly, I don't believe that the level of the sport is a problem as such. If the...
True, but I'd say it is an even larger question. Studies show that sports fans are worse and worse in accepting a loss. In different leagues more...
That, and also the fact that two scrub boxers can create a more entertaining fight than two good ones. Two bums going all out is easier to...
The rules vary between sanctioning bodies whether uncompleted round is scored or not. I don't know what was the case here though as I don't follow...
