agreed. he came away with the win but it was a robbery in my opinion. still, by the time Castillo fought him, he was a formidable foe. there's no...
oh yeah. my bad.
First, who said anything about success. Second, Duran fought as low as featherweight before becoming a lightweight. Third, the challenge was to...
Huh? Agapito Sanchez was a far more accomplished fighter than Augie Sanchez who did nothing but provide the public with amazing knockout reels...
He also beat Lazcano when Lazcano was undefeated. And he has a KO win over Bazaan who has a win over Johnston. And he a KO win over Julio Diaz,...
I should've clarified. I meant Agapito Sanchez.
Cotto has looked slower and slower seemingly in every subsequent fight he has had. He used to have reasonably quick hands. Lately, his hand-speed...
Is he active? It's not that I don't care about losses - or at least the thread doesn't suggest that losses don't matter - it simply says that the...
Mosley - Forrest X2, Wright X2, Margarito, ODH X2, Cotto Adamek - Briggs X2, Dawson, Cunningham, Bell Pacquiao - JMM X2, ODH, Hatton, Barrera X2,...
Whatever happened to Paul Briggs? That guy could bang. Isn't he Australian? I'd pick him to KO RJJ at this point. That's what needs to happen...
Oh please. Castillo knows how to box. A fighter doesn't go 24 rounds with PBF, winning the majority of the first 12 by most accounts, without...
Seriously? Wow. Well I think you chose a good one. The under-card, at least the original one, was good too. I've only been to two....
A guy who is a big draw doesn't fight guys like Margarito and Wright. Mosley has had to fight tooth and nail for what he has - taking on the best...
Cintron has too many shades of Forrest in his style if you ask me. If I were Mosley, and given Cintron's perceived suckhood, I wouldn't fight him.
The problem is, as much as Mosley has accomplished, and as epic as his career has been, even with ups and downs, he's not a huge draw which is...
MMA: I'd have to go with Hatton. The sport of boxing: Roger Mayweather
Mosley would destroy Berto. And I think he'd beat PBF too which is probably why we'll never see that fight. If Pacquiao isn't ready to fight...
He couldn't finish JMM because JMM is a P4P elite fighter with the heart of a lion and a will to win that is unmatched in the game right now as...
Does he hit harder than Corley? Or Torres? Pacquiao must hit Cotto on the temple. Not the chin. Cotto has an iron chin but his legs are gone if...
Steward's going to teach him what to do when he's hurt - hold. No shame in that. What will piss me off is if Cotto tries to control the pace of...
yeah but can you envision Hagler having success against McCallum fighting off his back foot, moving and jabbing? Say, like he did against Duran? I...
How do you figure?
I love it how just about everyone in this thread prefaces their comment by first saying that a prime RJJ would dust Green. If RJJ wins it'll be...
Steward has improved Wlad in one respect and one respect only. He's taught him how to drape his huge body on his smaller opponents in order to...
he was against SRL. and he certainly would've been against McCallum. :lol:
I think it's a misconception to imply the only way to beat Hagler is by replicating what SRL did - whatever that was. I think a consistent...
Ah. Cotto's going to learn how to clinch. So much for the entertaining version of Cotto. We're going to see a hit and hold Cotto for now on....
disagree. he had amazing instincts, a granite chin, obviously a savage body-attack, and bfcause he was so relaxed, he had great movement and great...
I think that's debatable. He may not bethe best example (Valero's a good one although Mosquera was a serious opponent who knocked him down and and...
Calzaghe was a joke. I'm so glad he retired. I only wish Andrade had gotten his shot against him. I think he could've beaten him.
