People forget that Lamotta lost to a whole bunch of bums as well as giving Robinson his first defeat. Also you must consider that Pavlik would...
Weight doesn't tell you everything about size though. James Toney sometimes weighted 230lbs or more in the ring. Was he as big as the Bowe that...
No way. Being a greater name doesn't necessarily translate to being better head to head. Pavlik is so much bigger than LaMotta it's unreal. It's...
Xplosive I think you and I agree on Duran based upon what you just said. I agree that Duran hits harder than Chavez...but as you said, you cannot...
I reserve the term "explosive puncher" for a guy that was a one punch lights out specialist...even at lightweight Duran wasn't that. All fighters...
The Bronx Bull vs The Ghost Of Course LaMotta is an all time great. he was the first man to beat the legendary Sugar Ray Robinson and was a man...
Is Grant's size and athletic blackness enough to win this or does Dempsey treat him like Jess Willard?
What happens here and how and why?
Yes they do! [img]
Yup, Broner can't do anything to Taylor at 140 or 147. Pretty much a mismatch.
You touched on a good point: "effortless power". Heavy handed guys seem to just produce power without loading up. Still...Hamed and Jackson though...
Yup, I'm torn as well. Hard to say for many reasons. I'm trying to picture Louis dealing the the constant bobbing and weaving style of Frazier....
Not always the same thing in boxing but sometimes there is overlap. This topic is subjective but here's my take. IMO, a heavy handed fighter is a...
Been done before, but wanted to do it again. Fascinating clash of styles. Someone's going down.
154 or 160 Wha'a'g'wan?
word.
Broner's a small fighter. His "problem" was that he left lightweight. He may have stayed undefeated at lightweight.
I heard a rumour that Roy Jones retired today, officially.
Barry Hearn has always been a cunt that over protects his fighters. Eubank only ever fought domestic opposition
Joshua, Parker and Ortiz look potentially as good as the Klit brothers IMO.
IMO...the heavyweight division is on fire. In retrospect, Tyson fury beating Wlad is the best thing that could have happened to the division....
That's a good one. I couldn't stand Bert Sugar....with his annoying cigar in mouth and hat gimmick, not to mention his opinions on historical...
Cool. Well with some of the bums that people consider greats these days, I assumed he'd be on the list too.
lol I thought he was generally considered to be a great. I guess not...
Floyd would have beaten all of those motherfuckers with consummate ease. Potshot clinic.
Time to add a whole bunch to this thread...because Ray Robinson made a career out of feasting on slow mos... Carmen Basilio Gene Fulmer Jake...
Easy fight for Taylor.
lol
Well I can counter.... look at the 5th round of the first Morales Barrera fight. Some of those Morales combinations were very fast.
Of course he gets clocked eventually. No way he survives 12 rounds with Jackson.
