The dude who's best wins are over an unfocused Judah & a shot Gatti? Try again.....:doh:
One the one hand I think this is very fair comment, in regards to Foreman. But I don't think Lewis would be able to contain Foreman long enough to...
I didn't actually but given your criteria I figured it for an ass-covering token gesture! :lol:
To all intents & purposes, the only guys that can be 'talented' by Mex' definition are black speedsters. And Pac.
Embed is to the right of the video below 'url'. Couldnt bear that horrific music long enough to watch that.....
As UGTBK said, you're ignoring certain guys styles are effected by weight classes. Hatton looked like ass against the bigger Collazo because his...

Pac by stoppage. 20lb matters Sly.
:lol:
Pryor-Arguello I
Ive said for a while that I feel that developing competent boxing skills is the next evolution in MMA. The sport seems to go through stages of...
All true but it doesnt really relate to what we're talking about!:dunno:
Gross athleticism - general strength & power, speed, co-ordination, balance, hand eye co-ordination & reflex', spatial awareness Boxing specific...
Was Maradona not a talented footballer, Mex? Or did he just learn to be really skillful. He certainly wasn't exceptionally athletic. Garrincha?...
Re Klit & Haye - In the same way athletes in every sport become more athletic - by training like athletes & becoming way, way stronger & more...
I'd say the Klitschkos & David Haye have improved their athleticism through proper training more than you could ever improve the kind of things...
But again..... who's more 'talented' Monzon or Judah? And I don't bring it up to be obtuse or a prick.....it illustrates an important point,...
Sly, if you're seriously saying that you foresaw Pac, who looked undersized in the first Morales fight, going on to do what he's done, then you're...
I know what you mean, thats usually how I would use it too....and I actually do think handspeed is usually the most important talent in boxing,...
Isn't the ability to soak up a skill set to such a pronounced level & apply it a talent though? I mean Sanchez' footwork, angles, punch picking...
I think he just means that he wasn't particularly physically gifted. Which is a fair observation. But one look at the career of Zab Judah should...
Fair enough. I'll stand by Sanchez at featherweight. If Marquez and Morales can best Pac at or around that weight then I think a guy I consider...
Pac will pull out a win, but will struggle badly with Diaz' size and will probably find it hard to discourage Diaz from ploughing forward. Pac's...
Double dog doo.
And over a decade younger than the Hopkins Pavlik fought.
Dude, I've watched about 100 fucking rounds of the guys career which is what I accumulatively make my pick on. I have work, study & a work out to...
10-6.
It happens every single time. Invariably. As an example - the knock down in Vargas-Mayorga where Vargas was clearly winning the round then got...
Watched the first 3 rounds: he would have beaten Pacquiao!:lol: Dunno what the sweet fuck happened in the rest of the fight that it ended up a SD,...
Sounds like one of those quickly aborted experiments in new scoring systems that pops up every couple of years in one state or another. TBF, I do...
