Midgets such as Fighting Harada rarely get mentioned. Ruben Olivares could be one too. People remember that he lost to Arguello but it was a very...
As everybody knows though, size alone doesn't help a thing (Dempsey-Willard, Louis-Carnera etc.) What can help is strength, power and reach if...
This is like saying Ali wasn't better than Chuvalo, he was just too fast. Or Foreman wasn't better than Frazier but just far too strong. This...
Dead at 41. For what I have heard he was a heavy drinker and his liver gave out
Lewis far too good
I'd pick Fonfara. Adamek seemed much better as cruiser and did relatively well in heavies too (after gaining 25 lbs of natural muscle mass with...
I am not sure if Maccarinelli can cope with the traditional former Soviet amateur style of Jones'
Right. Mike Tyson also liked to come forwards, threw good combinations and knocked out most of his opponents. Fres Oquendo ate up a motherfucker...
Is there something that proves that his durability can not in any way be in their class?
So maybe it is a coincidence too that in every sport that requires plenty of body coordination and quickness (such as gymnasts, soccer, hockey,...
Heavyweights are never going to be 'p4p as talented' as smaller guys. It is just not possible. A heavyweight-sized guy can't be as quick, throw as...
Good point, but I am not sure if Ray would use the chance to punch Oscar or to go down on him
I think Oscar goes the distance. It might be that he needs to go for survival in the last rounds, but if he does, there is no way Ray gets him out...
:l3: Usually it isn't that bad if a legendary fighter makes you his bitch, but in Monzon's case that could indeed be fatal
Winner!

I agreed with your earlier takes, but not this. I don't think Tito's problem was his lack of intelligence, it was his lack of footwork, which is...
Looking back, he did very well against Crawford even though the bout wasn't as close as the cards
Before you start to claim you were just joking, you forget two things: footwork is different from foot speed. GGG isn't fast but his footwork...
Same. Khan was dominating in early on last time. Garcia timed him eventually but IF Khan was able to be more careful he might take it this time
I think the difference is footwork. Tito's weakness was his movement: he needed perfect balance to fire and if you could keep him off-balance he...
I heard Duran never actually said No Mas, instead it was My God, My God, my stomach cramps, why have You forsaken Me
I pick Ali, simply because he beat Foreman easily, yes easily the first time
I think Golovkin should just move up. His former victim, Martin Murray, is doing just that, facing Arthur Abraham in November. I think Murray can...
Or, are you protecting your hero, the 80s with your pick? I am on the fence with this one. Curry looks like he should win, but I still think he...
Agree with this
I think he needed this just to get licensed to fight in Russia. Wonder what Jones must have done so that they begged him to apply for Russian...
Tarver just got busted for Roids after his second fight with Cunningham
Agreed. Perfect style match-up for him
I think we haven't seen the best of Canelo as of yet but so far I agree with the consensus that he is a size too small here and loses a decision
