Except that leaves you with arbitrary and unfair results if it is subjective and ridiculous results if the criteria remain objective. All you (or...
I know the UFC is pretty good about losing guys getting title shots, but imo Souza and Romero don't need another big win to earn a title shot, I'd...
Thanks. I've never had this happen before. Edit. It worked. What a fucked up 'improvement' that is. You'd think it would have some sort of...
Yes, this is a good prediction--Hopkins faking an injury. Then let's just play it out further--he'll blame his age and try to laugh it off so...
Fightnews hasn't been updated since Oct. 30. Anyone know why? Like most, I thought Golden Boy's purchase of Ring was preposterous. Like fewer,...
wtf is up with fightnews?
Agree with all. No way to know what Kovalev's top end is right now. This fight will likely provide some insight. I hope he obliterates Hopkins,...
Sure, and that's when an interim champion is automatically elevated to the status of a full champion because he has already fulfilled the...
Next time use lube on him, Double L.
Interim titles are fine. They keep things moving along. You want to take the title from a guy who fights 13 months after he won the title? Yeah,...
So you mean best combination of power and ability to land it effectively? Arguably true. P4P, I think Kovalev and Adonis hit harder.
I think Korobov is an excellent fighter, but he is not a GGG matchup right now. He needs a signature win in order to sell such a fight. Had he...
Evander Holyfield and Richard Grant disagree. Vehemently disagree.
Uhh, let's call them quick counts and not short counts. A short count would be counting to less than 10. The ref called a quick diez, but...
This is really a great conversation and all. Glad it's on the main boxing board. loadedgloves is like a little poodle--easy to ignore until it...
Whatever Rubio is or isn't, he's way, way too good to be a 200 to 1 underdog. I would gladly back this up, but I don't have a betting account...
It's Emanuel. One 'm'. I am surprised he is still training/fighting. Now, looking at boxrec, his last fight was in January 2011. Any idea what...
Manny took Wlad and had him fight exactly like Vitali fought under Sdunek for years. Wlad was considered the better heavyweight by most when he...
Frank Bruno laughs at this.
Didn't even know it was on.
Jeremy Williams started off like a rocket, including a wipe out of 10-0 Danell Nicholson.
It's really a weak end of the year. Melendez is a candidate for least intimidating, least imposing looking top fighter in the sport, and his...
Fucking PEDs. The biggest, most-fixable problem with sports today. We need draconian penalties.
Floyd's final fight should be against GGG. GGG should unify the belts before then. Floyd would greatly strengthen his all-time status with a win...
No. 9/19. Good show, stoppages all over. 29-0 Julio Cesar, some 18-2 21 year old, Manhoef looked like Manhoef, but then gets a title shot in...
Hearns > Hagler all time. Hagler loses a close fight and gets all bitch and quits. Hearns had bigger balls.
I don't think you know what totally washed up means.
The event was carried in several bars in my area. Usually, it's just UFC events at these places. I think the last boxing event I know of held in...
Floyd's gaps include Freitas and Casamayor at 130. There was no one at 135, maybe Johnston. At 140, Tszyu. At 147, the biggest and worst blemish...
Hell, scoring is subjective and that is determinative of fights all the time. The ref gets paid to use his judgment. This is an area where the...
