That's the worst part about it. Hopkins was gonna lose big and he knew it, but wasn't man enough to fight through his doubt.
Hopkins lost twice to Taylor. He just couldn't figure him out.
I've followed his career. And less aggressive doesn't mean past his prime. I think It had to do with Taylor's hand-speed. And the fact he got...
Do you think Hopkins would not have lost to Taylor, then, had he been in his prime?
Another favorite of mine is Lupe Pintor. The guy had very under-rated skills, but could punch like hell too. Plus he was tough as hell. I'm not...
It's pretty ridiculous to fuck hind-sight when it was obvious Trinidad wan't shit without his wraps.
which is a quitter bull-shit mentality. anyone calling for froch's retirement, should he lose to bute, should read comic books and stop watching...
I don't know who wins. Part of me thinks Mosley wins because of his hand-speed. But part of me thinks he'd be too brave for his own good, and...
I don't think Johnston had a style advantage at all. I see him getting worked over by Mosley.
Well, Froch's been fighting top guys for a while now. Bute's not. That has to help Froch's chances, whether you think we will win or not.
only in boxing.
Hopkins lost twice in his prime to Jermaine Taylor.
Obviously. It's ridiculous. Unfortunately, it appears to have taken hold among many.
Right. Too often the losses of great fighters are interpreted as the end of their primes. This is why Hopkins has appeared so much in this...
I don't think past his prime and on the decline are the same things, personally. I don't think the fact a fighter has slipped means he's past his...
Ward talked after the fight about the fact it was a new experience for him fighting outside his hometown with a hostile crowd. Pretty pathetic...
This is the key to the question. Presumably, people have their own opinions about the questions you've asked, and the point is to find out what...
Which fighters who you consider to have been all-time great never lost in their primes?
Andre Ward is versatile. He can smother guys who can hit him on the outside, or out-box guys who are super slow. Ward's smothering is...
It's interesting to wonder what kind of fighter it will be who manages to beat Ward. He'll have to be skilled, but he'll also need to be strong...
What's with Frosh by the way? He looked like dog-shit. He squares up without even bending his legs. And coming forward it wasn't uncommon for him...
Ward's got this whole born again evangelical thing going that's ridiculous and embarrassing. S.O.G.? Who? Him? Anyway, good performance by Ward....
WAR Rubio! You know a guy's protected when he tries to duck Rubio.
Vazquez was hardly crude. Nor was he simply a brawler. Offensive? No question. But very skilled. That's how he managed to whip your boy twice,...
Pavlik's never had very good hand-speed, but I think it's a major weakness of his at this stage, and will make him an easy mark for anyone not...
Because I never saw her come back from the dead to knock out Rodriguez, or go to war with Mickey Ward. :lol: I guess it's unfair.
How should I know? All I'm saying is, in his effort to appear unswayed by personal devotions, Sulaiman has actually unveiled just how personal his...
Still, you have to figure she's a cunt who's never done anything good in her life. The Gatti family, on the other hand, gave birth to and raised...
yes. i know it seems strange. but you have to figure there's distractions in Ohio, where everyone knows him, his friends and family live, etc.
My guess is he's counting on not knowing anyone who would be a bad influence on him, and surrounded by trainers and other boxers who can help him...
