I would have to think Paul V. Ciochetti Boxing Center is a boxing gym. And even then, Waterburry is terrible to use as a microcosm of the US,...
yeah,qawi style is more of a philly clam shell than a cross armed
Do you have any data to back up the declining number of participants argument?? You do know that the population of the US has pretty much tripled...
yeah. We're definitively not in a golden age of boxing, but it's far from the wasteland some old timers claim it is. But then, in every sports...
ethnocentrism can also refer to culture you ignoramus
Globally, pro boxing is probably more popular than ever, since it wasn't a thing in the former Soviet states and is now wildly popular (China too...
Nah, it only illustrate your ignorance since the decline in boxing popularity is pretty much strictly an american thing (if it is at all real)....
Thats actually a very good point. Guess its a style that is more methodical, less dynamic than the normal stance, so it suffers a lot from the...
Also, even if it was true, why was is it used so often in the past, with succs, and it's barely used now. Was there any change in boxing that made...
Agreed. Golota can't screw this one
hahaha, yeah I think that stiff was using it lol. Made a deliberate effort to completely forgot about him
yeah, that's the usual narrative, but I wonder if it's acutually true. Moore and foreman were able to generate great offense using it
ALways liked seeing guys using the cross armed defense. Who was the last guy to used this style effectively (Foreman????), and why do you think...
It depends on what part of the globe you're talking about. I know it's hard for americans to understand, but the US is not the only place in the...
Thurman would/could be champ in a few era. Not all of the chaps from yesterday were SRL, far from it
Wright
yeah, I guess it's better to cling to the tired cliche that everything was so much better in the good old days
Thurman is criminally underrated. You don't blow up guys like quintana ans Soto Karass so easily if you're not elite
Patterson probably, unless AMrciano lands a hail mary
Tua for sure
Mosley is all wrong for Spence. I'd pick him
Spence d is not too good. Peterson was able to catch him with some perfect rights. But he just couldnt deter him. If (and thats a big if) thurman...
That was his moving up fight. Edit: seems like i was mistaken. The salka foght was at 140. But werent the 2 postol "ducking"before and after the...
Youre selling mayorga short. Guy gave hell to 2 great fighters in mosley and cotto, and beat a few solids ones. He was far from a scrub
Yeah, cause the guy was at the time a lightly regarded unknown and brought nothing to the table cashwise
Yeah, carter is not greater than mayorga.
Yeah that would be an interesting fight. Porter is probabky the toughest ww around. Would like to see if hes abke to endure spence attacks
Crawford is not a better ww than thurman. His best win is eurobum postol for fuck sake. When tburman was facing these kinds of guys, he was...
Ngannou was in over his head, Showed his limitations tonight
yeah, and Peterson is a fucking warrior, and was motivated for that fight.To destroy him mentally like this is really impressive
