I pick Mayweather by decision.
I hope Dawson systematically dismantles Hopkins in a fashion leaving fans calling for hopkins to retire. I also hope hopkins is beaten to the...
Besides picking a winner, how does everyone see this fight unfolding?
seriously?
Probably. I think it would've been good and interesting while it lasted though. Both guys are very unorthodox but somehow effective. I like it....
Battle of the deliberate but not untalented south-paw punchers. One of them's dead, having first murdered his spouse before turning on himself....
I agree too. Bradley, for all his speed, won't be tough to find for Manny.
I think Pacquiao , with an opponent who comes to fight (Bradley), will have another performance on the level of his wins over Cotto and Hatton....
Valero's another story. We don't know how good he might have been. To me, he appeared every bit the special fighter he was being hyped as.
I think he would've had every chance to beat barrera or morales, which is probably one reason neither of those fights came off.
Has Soto done anything at 140? 135 seemed like a stretch to me. Too bad this guy never got any big fights in his prime. Would've loved to see him...
:lol:
There's a simple formula for putting PBF in a shell: trade with him. Usually, fighters respond to PBF's offense by covering up or moving away,...
I thought the latest on PBF was that he was past it - on the decline, steep or not. I guess it doesn't matter to the debate, though. If you're...
So you're saying, Sly, that PBF has an easier time beating ODH 98 than he did the ODH of the late 2000's? Is this your latest defiance of logic?...
At 147? ODH wins. No question. PBF would be on the defensive all night, and by the 4th round, afraid to throw anything but one punch at a time....
Maidana is better than a lot give him credit for. He's not simply a hard puncher. He has great timing which is why he's able to land often against...
I just hope Peterson doesn't get careless. Khan will hold incessantly in this fight, and throw between his grapples. It will be a disgusting...
I'd pick the jirov who ruined mesi to beat ruiz. But that's beside the point since jirov was at his best at 190 which is where he would've faced rjj.
Rios definitely enjoys a size advantage at 135.
It should be no surprise to hbo when promoters' focus is on maintaining undefeated (overrated) stars, ehen that's exactly hbo's value proposition...
Hopkins/Trinidad was a big one for me which made its postponement all the more difficult. Others: Pacquiao/JMM MAB/Hamed ODH/Mosley - daytime...
Seriously. To Jake's point, promoters make shit up all the time to get publicity to promote the shit they actually do show. It's not unlike pac...
I can't help but think his career will end up like Guzman's. Thing is, expectations have to be low for a guy in his position. It's not like he's...
Whether Rios is a brawler, a puncher or a pressure fighter, there can be no argument that he's offensive. As such, seeing him face Maidana...
Good thread! Crickets from the mayweather groupies.
Apparently, Maidana will now be trained by Rios' trainer, Garcia. This sucks. It would seem to suggest we won't be seeing Maidana/Rios any time...
Did you read my post? Seems like you didn't. Which would've been fine except that you responded to it. If you're going to respond, especially in...
My prediction is the same as yours. If you want to debate, let's find something we disagree about.
Even jmm, a featherweight, didn't run from pbf.
