so am i to understand that you think there's possibly an explanation for this other than pure ignorance on my part? what would a discussion...
I think Duran/Chavez at 135 is a competitive fight. Duran's speed, foot-work, angles and combination punching would be all he would need to win,...
Thanks again. That's a nice option for the forum. This way posters can include whatever they want in their signatures, and it won't inconvenience...
Oh. How do I do that? That would be an obvious perfect solution. Thank you.
I wish right-guard would offer Pacquiao the same gig (and script) they'd given Hagler. I think it's be cool to hear Pacquiao say, "anything less...
Believe me, I like a nice bouncing ass or tits as much as the next guy, but it's gotten to a point that so many users' sigs are stamped with the...
Duran has the perfect style to combat Pea's sht-fighting. He'd grind him up in the clinches, successfully counter him on the outside, be utterly...
I chose Mosley. He was a monster there and unlike that of many fighters competing below their natural weight, Mosley's durability didn't seem to...
I say that with the biggest of doubts - the possibility Vargas would've stopped Benitez. But let's remember that once upon a time Vargas was the...
It'd be close, with Nando possibly getting a stoppage on the ropes. Contrary to popular belief, Benitez/Duran was no white-wash, which makes it...
Uh, the final fight for supremacy in the single elimination bantam-weight tournament put on by Showtime! The biggest mystery here is not who...
This topic was inspired by the massive disappointment I felt when I found out (the day of the fight) that Agbeko/Mares had been cancelled. I've...
apparently, i thought you had. my bad. Marquez? i'd pick him at 135, but would be worried about picking him to win at 140. i don't think he'd...
Hopkins
Roger would get his ass kicked. There's no way he'd knock out Pacquiao. The suggestion that he could over-rates Roger and under-rates Pacquiao, in...
It was not my intention to put any historical limits on the conversation. And alphabet titles likewise are not intended as criteria. Basically,...
PBF clearly enjoyed a size and strength advantage, that had he been required to shrink down to 140, would not have been nearly as decisive....
When it comes to fights that have already happened, Ward vs. Kessler is a perfect example for me. Despite all of Ward's success, I simply can't...
Ok. So list two fighters, both of whom are/were highly accomplished and of similar size (championships in multiple weight-classes, resumes that...
Sciatica? Give me a fucking break! This is new one for sure. Apparently, the promoters failed to sell enough tickets, so they cancel the fight...
As much appreciation as I have for JMM's skills and heart, I have to go with Sanchez here. I think it'd be a drag-out war, in which JMM, the 126...
Something to keep in mind is that at this point the welterweight division is pretty barren. On the other hand, 154, which has a little more...
I'd like to think Corrales could've won this fight. And he certainly had the punching power and hands-speed, not to mention the height, to dictate...
What channel was JuanMa vs. Salido on? Was it PPV or what? I completely missed it, watching the HBO broadcast. BTW: If the topic were...
:lol: i hope this was meant as a joke. the idea that Hamed would've beaten a fighter that he himself didn't believe he could is ridiculous. i...
I find it encouraging that we're all in agreement that Berto straight up can't box.
that's a good one. Pavlik had been hit, and smiled to show he had not been hurt (which he probably had been in fact), and Taylor took the...
DiBella no longer has a "real"commodity in Berto. Look for him to sign another promising welterweight, one whose credibility he will build by way...
This topic isn't about 12 vs. 15. I get why such a discussion is absurd. Rather, it's about fights that could've been decided differently, given...
