So you're not willing to accept the premise that Margarito's gloves were loaded against Cotto? Okay. So it sounds like, then, that you're...
ha ha ha. yes but it wasn't the worst of his career because of his hand-wraps. after all, the plaster was removed prior to the Mosley fight.
No catch weights for PBF. No small oponent. He's in against Margarito. The same guy who I knew was tough and who knocked out Cotto. Anyone who...
The bottom line is, when Margarito was allowed to load his gloves, he was a real force to be reckoned with. It wasn't until he beat Cotto though...
What good fight is that? PBF's conspiracy to be called the best fighter in the world without having faced a single top contender in his own division?
why don't they help in a fight?
PBF didn't know Margarito was loading his gloves when he refused to fight him. And even if he did, he could've seen to it before the fight that...
what does this have to do with the thread? as far as I can tell, the only guy who ducked Margarito was PBF. so no. I would not say he was the...
I could be wrong, but I think the thread is suggesting that we can assume Margarito "did" know about the hand-wraps, because otherwise, it's...
I agree it's disappointing that Williams will basically be taking on a smaller guy. Honestly, when you consider that Williams has no business...
1. Mayorga is not very talented 2. Becoming a unified world champion is a great achievement You say you disagree with #1, #2 or both. Which is it?
if the referee does anything but take points from the offending fighter, he is only making matters worse. if he breaks them everytime, he's...
I'm not so sure. Floyd's dad doesn't seem to think beating Mosley would be as easy for PBF as you do. Plus, my guess is that when PBF gets...
:lol::lol::lol:
actually, he didn't get boxed silly. that's a myth. SRL, in my opinion, definitely made a conscious decision to use more foot movement in the...
yeah but Shane will be fighting Berto having already faced Margarito and Cotto, not to mention all of the names at 154 that he faced. There's a...
If I'd last seen Pacquiao's fight against Barrera or Morales, I would agree with you. But he was much smarter and more respectful of his...
I know. What if Abraham turns out to be the best guy in the tournament? Or even the second best? Taylor's already lost to Froch but he...
I keep seeing people talk about Taylor being replaced by this guy or that guy. But has Taylor or his camp made any reference to the possibility of...
i thought Benitez beat Cervantes with his jab. still, for Estaban who didn't really have the size at 140, to go 15 with a big 140 pounder and...
his point is RJJ is a nobody too. so Tarver beat noone. without exception. i don't agree RJJ is a nobody - just explaining his statement.
he beat Viruet, beat Lampkin twice, Ishimatsu who beat Buchanen. those wins are up there with some of Duran's best wins.
first of all, what does it prove by taking the best wins of each fighter off his resume? secondly, how do you figure Tarver had the better...
this is a ridiculous poll. DeJesus is one of the best lightweights ever. Tarver is a one-hit wonder who beat nobody with the exception of RJJ.
how often are knock-outs not the result of one punch?
What do you work for HBO? Building one star at a time? The heart of this sport is in the fights, not the fighters. The sooner people realize this,...
My guess is that most people who don't speak Manny's native language don't know the real Manny. And so they imagine who he is, and Manny goes...
Can't argue with that.
It's not fair to Johnson to say Dawson beat him. Why do you think there's a rematch? And I wouldn't call Adamek a pressure fighter either. He's...
How can anyone say that a fighter's amateur experience doesn't help him?
