Disagreed, I think he has allot of skills. Just not the physical gifts to implement them at the highest level. At a certain point, if your speed,...
Not sure why you found it so strange - his attitude seems pretty typical of a large % of this generation of fighters, generally.:dunno: Only...
When it's ready you can come round and we can boom boom together in front of the full length mirror :mj:
Hmm...the comparison is slightly strained but I see what you're saying. Difference essentially is that Leonard's wins were vastly better at every...
I'm not no, though I'm so sick of people trying to convince me that I should be I'll probably sign up soon. Sounds good Buddy, post some pics...
Eastman beat Joppy too IMO.
I still miss Petre though, he was a great poster, place is poorer without him. :crying:
Wow I really can't let that slide - Manny is 'selective' now? Wildly, wildly unfair, dude.:lol: A) The Oscar fight was taken purely because it...
What does your home gym look like Buddy?:bears:
it's a fair point:lol:
Exactly. Or the late Sanchez for that matter. I'd certainly pick Sanchez over him at 126lb.
I doubt anybody in the history of planet earth ever squatted 950 for 6 (certainly not without some pretty high tech suits) so I think it's safe to...
:lol:
Jesus....:doh:
No sporting situation is ever gonna resemble a street fight.
LOK, far be it for me to throw e-accusations around but you sure you didn't 'internet up' those numbers a wee tad there?:lol: According to...
Well done Eddie Chambers! For as long as he continues to train like a fighter he'll have a fan in me (despite his abject lack of boxing...
'Trai....ning?':dunno: :lol:
:bears: Yup, so was the Tackie fight. He's a great fighter trapped in a bums body, IMO. He looked appallingly bad against Cotto, but I just think...
WTF! I can't believe I missed all this lunacy. Creating an account with which you pretend to be your own son singing your praises has to be one of...
agreed. The younger brothers chinny chin makes Wlad-Haye potentially explosive. Vitally-Haye has mismatch written all over it.:dunno:
No way Haye beats Vitally, tbh. The one hope we had for entertainment value and excitement returning to the heavyweight division was pretty much...
Pretty much the response I expected to this thread! I posted it right before leaving for work, it's funny coming back the next day to it, feels...
An 'impatient counter puncher' might be how I would describe him. He's a pure counter puncher by style but a brawler by temperament.
I know he doesn't have the physical gifts to be world class and he never will do, but IMHO, there's maybe no better fighter to watch on his game...
There'll always be a market for a combat sport where the combatants don't spend 25% of the time rubbing their crotches over each other. :bears:
Exactly. Fucking douche....you'd think he's just beaten Roberto Duran or something.
As i said above, i think this is why we differentiate between greatness and peak talent. Greatness is based on what you get done, talent is...
Yes it does sound sensible. A physical prime doesn't necessarily coincide with a fighter's prime anyway, they are two distinct things. It isn't...
So fighters decline at the same rate, outstanding fighters never go off the rails for personal reasons or because they take beatings in great...
