Go Cintron !!! Molina will lose.
Watch the degree of second nature with which Wlad clinches the back of his opponents' neck anytime they come forward. That is absolutely illegal,...
A warm-up for a fight that didn't happen. You're not seeing the absurdity here. Maybe you've put your finger on one of the reasons PBF keeps...
:atu: He's warming up for PBF? What was JMM?
That'd be good, for sure. That would surely help him confront his fear of defeat, and possibly culminate in his having the sack to face his top...
In other words, vote which selection you think is less wrong? To achieve what? It seems to me this is about your inability to intelligently defend...
It's a good point; we never did see Ibeabuchi deal with the kind of height disadvantage he would've had against the likes of Lewis, Wlad or...
Thing to be careful about with the topic is the tendency to over-estimate a fighter's ability based on wins over inferior competition. I know...
Thanks REED. Now that we're a little closer to discussing human beings, I will play along.
There's no such thing as super-man.
It's long been known that Steward wraps his fighters' hands with a lot of tape. But evidently, he's done so without breaking the rules.
I don't blame Wlad for being defensive-minded, given his vulnerabilities. But it doesn't change the fact he's not exciting to watch. As a boxing...
All three of these fights are classics, that every true boxing fan, young or old, owns a copy of. I don't think it fits. Remove these now.
Golota/Sanders & Pouha ... Golota was far superior to both these fighters but allowed himself to get into a brawl with both of them, and...
Wlad's entire style has been built around protecting his fragile chin and conserving his energy. And he's had plenty of time, and foregone any...
Wlad is going to lean on Haye everytime he gets close, tire him out, and then easily finish him. And since Wlad is participating in the fight, it...
I could see that, given he was winning those fights handily. But whereas in those fights he was actually taking punishment, it seemed like a...
Yeah. It's tough to pick Golota in this instance, knowing that McCall will still be around in the late rounds. That's when Golota starts to freak...
Throw in JMM. I know they actually fought, but that was at 147. At 130? When PBF weighed that much the night of the fight? Would've been a fair...
What about Sal Sanchez at 130? I know he never fought there, but there's no reason he could not have. Not that he would've won, but it would've...
I did. And I think Judah hits a lot harder and is faster than Alexander. Although Alexander I think is taller and rangier. For Mathysse to win,...
Good point. Except if it means getting to see Chavez Jr. get knocked out, it may be worth watching, even if neither guy belongs on TV.
Chavez is terrible - did you see how easy he was for Zbik to hit? He has no defense. No foot-work. His technique is crap. He's not athletic in the...
Rubio will get step-aside money. He's way too dangerous to be an opponent for that no-talent fraud, Chavez Jr.
Nobody with any credibility has ever criticized PBF's competition at 130 and 135. It was at 140 and above when PBF began getting all shifty about...
He'll continue to do what he's been doing - sit on the side-lines and wait for GBP to build up opponents for him that he knows he can beat.
My guess is we simply have different interpretations of what John Ruiz did and why. You see a brave man fighting aggressively - I see a witless...
Speaking of Lewis, he had his cowardly moments, when he'd hit his opponent once and then grab. Same with Wlad. Neither of these guys I'd classify...
John Ruiz is a perfect example. He had to fight aggressively because he lacked the skill to do anything except charge ahead. And yet, his...
Very good thread !!! I haven't had time to give it thought, but felt compelled right away to note that this will make for a good discussion.
