Depends again what we mean by p4p but I wouldn't have him in the top 5 as of now, certainly not easily
Only from one side though, Ali was merely hyping the fights
Outside heavyweight I'd say only Canelo, and that's not just because of his capabilities as a fighter. These days you'd need to be a seriously...
This is the first I thought of too. Funnily enough they are friends these days
This is the guy who got banned. [MEDIA]
So are you saying Russian commies are bad people?
The idea is that if a fighter doesn't fight properly, ie. takes an obvious dive or gets himself DQd, he is banned from boxing for a year (Sergey...
I meant more the fact that you posted several posts in a short while using vulgar language. It was more about that than about disagreeing with...
Uh oh, cdogg is on a rage attack against modern day. Hide your radios, bring out your telegrams! :cool:
That's up for the refs to decide. He wasn't DQd, he won the fights. Also I don't quite buy your theory. Wouldn't it make more sense had Holy won...
He defeated a bunch of guys who I think would have beaten Andy, that's why. Aesthetics are a different matter
I don't quite believe that, tbh. Connery had an amazing screen presence and charisma, but his range as an actor was very narrow. The Craig Bond...
John Ruiz was the better fighter but head to head I see Andy's quick fists prevailing
Agreed. I think it's mainly his fans that have gotten Xplosive infuriated
Seems that everybody struggles in turn. Loma didn't shine against Campbell, Spence had his hands full with Porter, Inoue took bruises against...
Teofimo is a serious prospect
Agreed. He might have been a great stand up performer or part of a variety show but not a boxing broadcaster. For an analyst I don't think Ali...
Daniel Craig is easily the most talented actor ever in the role. Connery was great for his time, but that acting wouldn't work these days....
It's very possible Morrison would have beaten AJ. He had the power, and more importantly the quick fists. Ray had neither. AJ would never have...
... facing a man who begged an old Jesse Ferguson to lay down for him
It is true that boxing has always been a sport of a low social-economic class, that is the case all around the world. The more rich Finland has...
Exactly. The story that the best fighters were born in poverty and the difficulties had cultivated them to become ruthless fighting machines is...
Apart from brittle Morrison Mercer never knocked out anybody as good as those three, his only comparable win was a close decision over worn...
If we pick and choose the Ray from his very best night (in which he lost) and pit him against AJ the night he probably fought sick, then sure. I...
Mercer should win, if he were as good as he looked in the Lennox fight. However, apart from Morrison he never knocked out anybody worth damn and...
Yes. I don't know any other such case from earlier decades, so it could be one "2010s thing" too
Has it ever happened before that the weight limit of a middleweight title defense has been agreed to be below the actual 160 lbs limit?
So how was 2000-10 better than this for a casual fan?
:Jest:
If we could make MMs Ali vs Tyson, SRR vs SRL and Duran vs Whitaker, I bet HALF of these guys would LOSE, proving that they weren't actual...
