This is why it wearies me to chat with some of you. Many of your brains are too small to grab context. I'm not saying that they are equal. I'm...
Check the opening post. Let's for a second PRETEND that Joe could have made 160 and still be as effective...just for the sake of a discussion.
word. And who cares if people claim "nuthuggery"? Fuck them and embrace the term with pride. The elitists only use that term as a control...
Dude..you KNOW that you can break down ANYONE's opposition if you want to using that strategy. Give me 7 names on Curry's beaten resume and...
Duran quit too. Ortiz didn't quit against Berto. Is it possible that he grew up by the time he faced Floyd?
Just look at the skills on display. Dude...if Floyd was to be exposed he would have been by now. He's fought enough decent fighters at welter and...
You may be right. My perception is that they outpunched him...but Robinson, although he fought in spurts many times, those spurts were spectacular.
Probably. The dude can do nearly everything in that ring. :kidcool:
"Two Big" I think was the slogan for Lewis-Grant. Something like that anyway. T'was pretty good.
Will Smith is a bad pick. Good picks would be those that have no chance of getting an Oscar nomination. Smith has been nominated TWICE....
:giggle: Mosley isn't discouraged by ridiculous counterpunching reflexes as he was against Floyd and as such knocks the hearns wannabee the...
if there is a gulf at all.
Bullshit. Stylewise Floyd is worse for Curry than the other way around.
If Floyd's unbeaten record was only as a result of him not fighting anyone of note...he would have lost to at least one of the following: De La...
Didn't Fulmer, Basilo and Lamotta "out-volume" him?
word. Very unnantual to move right if you're orthodox....because the natural tendency is to move in the direction of the jabbing hand.
Taylor FO SHO! Are you mad. Prodigious workrate. Agree with you on Robinson. Andre Berto? :scared2:
I wouldn't call Robinson a swarmer.
Hopkins doesn't lose to Fulmer or Turpin in 100 tries. Robinson had a legendary record and was the first slick black fighter to revolutionize...
That's the essentially point where I and the rest of the forum disagree: I think Floyd's level of comp has been fine. At least as good as...
I don't get the logic. If you concede that Calzaghe coul dbeat Hagler over 12 what does the extra 3 rounds do to change this. Calzaghe's stamina...
That's Undefeated, Dominant, Lacy/Kessler/Hopkins beating trash to you sir.
He'd land 2-1 on hagler. No doubt.
He'd want to I'm sure, but this is not about their sexual preferences. Curry is ridiculously overrated...riCOCKulously in fact. Curry didn't...
Please. Hagler would be at a height and speed (hand and foot) disadvantage. Calzaghe, who's rarely hit flush, had a dependable chin and Marvin...
There's no overrating Floyd either until he comes close to defeat.
OK, you're gonna hate me for this...but in this thread we have to ASSume that Joe could melt down to 160lbs and be just as effective as he was at...
"Who's fooling Who?" Benn Eubank (1991)
"Holyfield vs Tyson" (1991) Best one. It didn't even need a silly slogan. That was all you needed in a promotion. Tyson the people's champion...
Was that the one with the two man-eating lions? If so I concur.
