Oscar, but this is much closer than the other poll.
Oscar
Darchinyan KO 1
If Valero was "talentless" Toney Galento was Ray Leonard.
I'll take Mayorga. He wouldn't have any trouble baiting Paz into his fight. Not that Vinny would be lost in that element, but it doesn't favor him.
No argument there. Obviously the weight drain played a very large factor, but even looking back it's still surprising how Manny completely...
Fedor Silva Rampage Machida Velasquez
Valero also busted up Oscar when he was brought in for sparring to prepare for Pacquiao.
To be fair he did pick Ray Robinson over Yuri Foreman by split decision.
I could be wrong, but i think he meant the prime Marciano vs the 1950 Charles.
:stir::popcorn::laughing:
:Pointlaugh:
Hmm interesting. For future events i'd ask who would win between Pacquiao and Mayweather. As far as mysteries from the past or how fighters...
May as well do this one too.
Hopkins, close but clear. 116-112 116-112 115-113
Yep, at this point i don't think it can even be disputed that's he's the greatest defensive fighter of all time.
I guess it depends on what you consider talent. Not everybody could have reproduced what Santana did. :lol:
No order: Pacquiao Kirkland Martinez Marquez Bute Honorable mention to Gamboa
I want to see Gamboa fight - period. It's been a while.
It's not worth anything.
Not sure, there was speculation about it causing Holyfield's shoulder issue as well.
He would have lost anyway, but he should have at least leaded with his jab much more. Too often he was playing a feinting game with Martinez....
Never could stand him but Chris Byrd was effective at the parry.
The Ibragimov fight. Not what's traditionally considering parrying but he used his left to pick off Sultan's punches out of the air.
Wlad De La Hoya was pretty good at it.
He's only calling them out because they're the biggest names in the sport and naturally the biggest potential paydays. Martinez isn't cherry...
I'd favor Norris in this one.
I'd rather see Mayorga-Margarito There are other options for Cotto
Agreed.
