The older Tyson was a shitty infighter. As soon as his opponent clinched he would stop throwing. I think it was a combination of lack of desire...
Ali
It's not quite on the same level as some of the previous ones but Jones-Toney deserves a mention. I don't know which fight, but Pacquiao has...
No, but that wasn't the question of the thread. Pryor DOES have a win over an ATG. Pryor was awesome in that fight, but so was Arguello. That's...
Isn't that an example of the opposite? Without the win (and performance) against Arguello i doubt he would be considered as an ATG.
A boxer's resume will always play a huge part in their all time status. Without other great fighters available (or even very good ones) they will...
Relax.
REED did no such thing.
Agreed. Even if they were the same age Hopkins would win but have his difficulties due to the styles. Being with this matchup Ward is much younger...
That was fucking brutal to watch. It's one thing to give praise or mention to whatever you believed helped you win but then at least answer the...
Agreed. For an attacking slugging fighter he wouldn't have finished his career with only 1 in 10 losses via TKO. Rarely did you see him fight with...
:D
When I was kid a friend an I were looking through a big hassock filled with old albums my parents had from the 60's/70s. I remember laughing when...
Did you watch it?
I tend to rewatch the one sided fights/great performances a little more often. Part of that is due to the drama of a close fight is mostly lost...
Worth checking out.
And? Because it was said after the fact doesn't make it untrue.
He reminds me a lot of Vargas even though he's never been as good.
This would be a decent undercard fight.
I'm a big fan of GGG but no way is this true.
Cube
Exactly and he was able to it without most of the natural athletic talents so many pressure fighters have. He was above average on a lot of...
I agree, but that's one of the very few examples in boxing history outside of fights where a guy got screwed by the judges.
Unless Loma loses his next fight or even struggles. Then it's a complete mismatch in Nelson's favor.
You can't prove it's not true.
Agreed. In Track you're not really competing against anybody but yourself. Sure there are psychological advantages one can try to gain but if...
Yeah but a lot of that has to do with training years and years in boxing. If the same guys had to train in wrestling, jujitsu etc. their striking...
Surfer Dudes 2 - Like woah, a sequel!
How I see it too. Taylor wins more rounds but they're the closer ones. Canelo's are more clear and get a bigger crowd reaction. Has contentious...
I can foresee boxing casuals clicking a link "Andre Ward wins fighter of the decade" just to find out who he is.
