It's likely, for sure. I mean which 40 year old in their right mind, that's used to fighting Welterweights wants to come out of retirement and...
lol ok. Ali, Frazier not 70s fighters and Duran, Leonard not 80s fighters according to your criteria. That's cool, just as long as we are...
No dude, consider the thread starter's premise: The original discussion was about the 00s decade. You're changing it up to suit yourself.
An era in boxing is identified by a decade; years 0 to 9. It's always been that way. Now you're trying to make the word era, in the boxing...
Yeah but you're the same guy that said years ago ('cause I remember the weirdest shit) that Hopkins and Echols were the same height and that...
Ai yi yi! Forget it pal, you're being wilfully ignorant. Hearns will MORE than make GGG think twice, just saying that Hearns will commit more to...
lol I'm not saying that Canelo had "supreme ring IQ". I'm saying it's better than Lemieux's. Secondly....no one looks "clever" against Mayweather.
Canelo has little chance of beating GGG, but will likely do better than lemieux since he's a better fighter than Lemieux in many ways. Hearns?...
I'm not sure that canelo is shorter than Lemieux. Have you seen them side by side? They're around the same height methinks....half an inch...
No. 90s & 00s talent pool isn't mutually exclusive....anymore than 70s & 80s is mutually exclusive (in which case Leonard is either 70s or 80s...
From 2010 onwards it's a new decade, and we'll judge that differently...but 2000 - 2009, the 00s, was a very good decade for boxing...on any...
No love for Cotto, Vargas, Wright, Marquez, Hatton, Corrales, Castillo, Casamayor, Hopkins, Calzaghe?
So, what you are saying is that, for example, MAB and Morales were 90s fighters and not 2000s fighters? That's silly. Each had as much or more...
Ali and Frazier were 60s fighters that crossed over into the 70s. Therefore, should Ali and Frazier NOT be included in a 70s era discussion?...
2000-2010 was a great era of boxing. I will be appreciated in years to come (as is always the case). We had great fights: Trinidad-Vargas,...
word.
GGG isn't a huge Middleweight, so if a large rangy Middleweight comes along, with good boxing ability, GGG could be beaten. I think a Bernard...
I see teh opposite. I see Cotto getting strrrrrrrrrretttched! I think Cotto gives him a great deal to think about in the first two rounds but...
People ALWAYS underrate the current or recent era. Always. The 2000-2010 era is being underrated by you as we speak. It had Mosley, Trinidad,...
Lesser fighters than Hearns have gone past 3 rounds against Hagler too. Many of them in fact. Lesser fighters than Spinks lasted longer with Tyson...
Pavlik would have lasted longer with Hagler than Hearns did too. Pavlik wasn't as good as Hearns, but he was bigger, stronger and tougher....
Pavlik was too "hitable" and wasn't a versatile boxer. Much bigger than GGG but the difference in talent would nullify that. GGG by clear decision.
Nah...GGG is the goods. Great fighter, IMO. I'd also make him the favourite to beat Floyd. I'm just saying that Floyd could beat him, not that he...
Fans were disgusted with the Berto matchup (and for good reason) as well as teh quality of the Pacquiao fight (and for good reason). My reading of...

Hahahahahaha! You guys are very funny I must admit. Mayweather is still underrated. Floyd hardly gets hit and you can't hurt what you can't hit....
LOL! It will be hilarious if this fight gets signed. What will y'all say then?
Thanks. Didn't know that. THIS may change things. Still that was 10 years ago or so, and he was just 21 at the time. Since then he's fought...
Cotto vs Lemieux will be a nice fight. I think Cotto takes him.
The chocolate coloured hispanic would be too much for JMM, P4P.
