This thread is dedicated to fighters whose careers are over, and on top of that, they're under-rated in retrospect. And in many cases, they're...
Hopkins needs a vicious beat-down before he retires. Here's hoping I get to see it.
On the contrary, I think given his lack of experience, no amateur career, and apparently late start in the sport, you have to believe that Chavez...
I think Chavez Jr. will be a tough fight for Cotto and will possibly beat him.
Yep. Fuck Bob. Although Donaire and Montiel would've been the two best fighters in the tournament (on paper) and with the most to lose. Especially...
By default, he's better than Lopez at taking on and defeating top competition (Barrera, Pacquiao, PBF)
Exactly. This isn't ballet. It's boxing. It's cool and all that Lopez managed to fight artistically, and make things look easy, but to say because...
I struggle to understand how you can be so sure of this?
I'm not saying he wins, but I think Pirog actually has an ideal style to beat Martinez. He applies educated pressure, doesn't load up, has good...
he won't have to beat any of them. what he's hoping, what GBP is hoping, is that Con's wins over Marquez and then Ortiz will have us lemmings so...
Valero.
Bradley's open for the right-hand too - he leans his head to his right all the time. I thought Abregu was going to find Bradley leaning with his...
If Lopez had as much heart as JMM, he would've moved up in weight to find challenges.
This is a joke, right? Supposing you'd pick Lopez in a MM, what if you didn't? What if you picked JMM? Then who would be better? I personally...
I'm not surprised there's some debate. But I have a hard time imagining a solid case for anyone except Marquez. With all due respect to flawless...
I hope Konward gets smashed, whomever he fights.
Who do you think will be remembered as the better fighter? JMM or R. Lopez? Both having similar styles, due in part no doubt to their sharing the...
Curry was a guy who fought with his eyes; he always had his chin in the air;
Exactly.
Why do you think Mosley was able to easily beat Margarito? Ecve knock him out? Seriously? How do you reconcile that in your mind with the fact...
:lol::lol::lol:
Neither guy (Ortiz or Con) are physical fighters. They would give Judah all the time he'd need. I agree - Judah could definitely knock out Con,...
Id be willing to remove all GBP fighters from the ratings at this point, in the hopes of seeing the fights that really matter get made and...
GBP wants to build up Khan for a fight with PBF.
Why's he fighting Margarito? If we start without the premise that Pacquiao is on PEDs (something you didn't do), it's pretty easy: 1....
Although many on this forum predicted it, it's worth noting that Marquez/Diaz II PPV was a total screw-job. Fortunately, I watched it away from...
All else being equal, I'd pick the guy from the Bronx over the guy from Brooklyn everytime.
I see GBP has done it's job well - as lemmings, we have no choice but to discuss Marquez/Khan. And yet, in fact, Khan's only claim to the...
One word for Vargas: PEDS
Makes me sick how these fighters act. It'd be admirable that Diaz and Marquez have nothing but good things to say about each other if they didn't...
