I agree. To be fair though, HBO did make it clear that Dawson was not setting the world on fire with his performance, which clearly he had not....
Not the way Johnson did, no. Johnson fought RJJ at mid-distance. He didn't smother his punches. And he didn't stay outside when the going got...
In that fight he did do something special. Very special. He fought RJJ at the perfect distance, moved his head, controlled the pace of the fight,...
Fair enough. But it's not as if RJJ hadn't lost every round leading up to the knock-out. So let's not pretend it was a simple matter of Johnson...
I don't know. I think he would've won the first fight more definitively, and there may never have been a second. But that doesn't mean Glen...
Hopkins at 46 just doesn't have the durability he once had, as recently as three years ago. If he fought Dawson, for example, I think he'd be...
Cotto because he's better.
:lol:
I think this thread has been done in the past, perhaps even by me, but if it was, it was a long time ago. And if you thought it was a stupid...
Nevermind that Mosley said he'd never felt power like that before, and that it had only been the second time in his career he was knocked down....
He has all kinds of talent and physical ability, but what accounts most for his success, and the reason he'll fight anyone, is that he's a true...
Spurt fighting Pascal won't get lucky again. He'll lose a decision.
cdogg will say whatever stupid thing he needs to say to defend his position. and since he's not, "that" stupid, he'll realize later when he's...
cdogg disagrees. he'd tell you that that's like saying that getting hit with a wiffle ball bat all day is more dangerous than getting hit once...
Again. I don't need proof to express my opinion. And neither do you. As to point #8, you've used a ridiculous example in an attempt to dismiss...
He cheated in those too, probably to a lesser extent, but nontheless. And I don't need proof to express my opinion.
Exactly. Against Joppy, Trinidad's gloves weighed five pounds. He could've hit Pavlik in the collar bone with one of those right hands and Pavlik...
what's this mean? if you took the time to read my post and response, i'd be interested to know what you thought. and call me thick, but two dudes...
wow. were you wrong. And Tszyu hardly struggled with Mitchell by the way. Mitchell brought out the stink. The stink didn't work. So he quit.
for a few reasons: 1. Judah hadn't fought anyone by the time he faced Tszyu; he was over-rated due to typically good management and cable TV...
well, it's the topic of the fucking thread ! :giggle: forgive me for making such an outrageous inference. i believe greatness comes in many...
He wasn't particularly athletic, and very deliberate in his approach. I'm guessing this is why you view him as over-rated - he doesn't fit your...
Is this a joke? His hair-CUT has changed from time to time, but his hairline? And quality? First of all, how have you even confirmed this? And...
My definition of a "one-armed fighter" is one who couldn't hurt you with one of his arms, whether it be a non-existent left-hook or a weak or...
Does Cuevas qualify? With the extreme power of his left-hook adequate compensation for his right hand?
I think Benitez might qualify. He won his fights with his jab, and certainly didn't have a powerful right-hand.
Sounds like you're saying neither Hearns nor Lewis were in fact, "one-armed fighters." No? And Holmes' jab was good enough, and his right-hand...
"One-armed fighter" is a term often used to describe a fighter who doesn't carry adequate power in both hands. A prime examples of a top fighter...
Worthy quotes from PBF: Ha ha ha! Those will be hard to come by.
PBF's toughest fight by far was against Castillo. He had a tough time with ODH as well. Other than that, it's been pretty much a cake-walk for...
