Tyson!:lol: Seriously I never saw Mike at his best being out jabbed. Not to say he was a 'great jabber' just an illustration of what trainers are...
He would hit you ONCE and it would be over. You probably wouldn't remember the next 5 minutes of your life.
Esk also infamously said he'd beat a prime Tito Trinidad.....due to styles.:laughing::laughing:
Lucia Ryjker got knocked out cold in the first round against some unknown Thai journeyman the only time she crossed the gender divide. She was...
Tyson was a great example of that. Hell he even out jabbed Lewis in the first round, which was basically all he was capable of sustaining.
In a street fight, probably. In a boxing match, probably not.
Weird, I was just looking at a pic of Roberto Duran there: http://theselvedgeyard.files.wordpress.com/2009/06/06.jpg and that's exactly what I...
I suspect you're right. Make it 30 then....after all we just need him to be able to box, not write sonnets. :kidcool:
Yeah coz Whitaker was constantly kept at arms length, unable to land in his prime, eh? :notallthere: I'd give Gatti some reflex' Judah 20 IQ...
Agree. And I also think he was allot better in his younger days than he was by the time he fought Barrera. But I think Pac would be too fast for...
A silly thread.....Which fighters do you think you could improve the most from history by fixing one relative weakness? The obvious two that...
If in doubt go with the faster guy, unless there's a BIG reason not to. There's no such reason in this case. Manny TKO 7, with the obvious...
The post no mas Duran could lose to any really good fighter on a given fight. Much like Ali lost to Leon Spinks and (shuda to) Jimmy Young. At...
In all honesty, I doubt there's ever been a MM I haven't picked Duran in. This won't be the first. I think Duran's timing equals Manny's speed and...
Found out recently that during WWII Britain and Finland were the only two democracies in history to have declared war on each other. No shots were...
Gimme Hamed in a 7-5 type affair, with McGuigan coming on late after being hurt early.
Gimme Castillo by close decision.
What he said.:partie:
Exactly how i see it. Hearns 10-5/8-3-1.
I suggest you keep watching tapes. Robinson hit every bit as hard as Hearns for my money. And with every punch in the arsenal too.
I've seen the same as you, then. Just don't consider it enough to have a useful opinion - most the fights we've seen were at heavyweight for one...
Yeah tell us how many dozen Tunney or Moore fights you've seen, Irish? :rolleyes:
i havent seen enough of either to have a meaningful opinion
Really hope Mayorga wins for boxings kudos factor but the chances have to be fairly slim.
Yeah Corrie Sanders and a young Mike Tyson.....pretty much the same.:doh:
I agree.
In fairness after the 10 rounds of bombs he took from Tua I don't think his physical toughness is in issue. That he took ten rounds of bombs from...
Margarito wasn't world class. now? :rolleyes:
I just laughed for about 10 minutes.
Actually, I have to amend my pick, Ike knocks Moorer out. Moorer doesn't move enough and has too much of a tendency to trade, and that doesn't end...
Separate names with a comma.
