Tyson was lucky in that he didn't have to fight at the same era with Lewis or Klitshkos
Seriously speaking, I do find Tyson's fights usually boring (though it must be noted that the first one I watched live was Ruddock I). I hardly...
:bangh:please don't take that road. I don't think the difference between 'prime' Foreman is that great. Foreman was perhaps not at his sharpest in...
I don't know if Bowe's defense was that much worse than Lyle's and Lyle came pretty close of pulling it off. Also Bowe would beat George to the...
Valuev is greater than Langford -cdogg187-
This is the correct answer
:giggle: come on! If you begin to take shots against others (funny though it was) you need to have the skin to be able to laugh at yourself too....
:bears: agreed
I am writing an article again about boxing and I'd like to hear your opinions for it. I was thinking about decades and fighters who have somehow...
Thanks. I still believe though that Lampley tried to make a play of words the way Jake suggested but mixed it up and the result was not what he meant
Thanks for this clarification. I guess we can agree that Lampley didn't make much sense then
True, and you can also listen to this from the opening post of this very thread, at 2.14
So if Lampley had said something like "Apparently God is no match for Lennox" after Holyfield failed to finish Lewis in the third, it would have...
It truly warms my heart to see everybody picking a great fighter over an old-time midget
Maybe it is the language barrier but to me spelling the word in the end does not make sense. Otherwise it is a clever line My favorite quote by...
This is completely true, but I think producer has as much to do with it as he does. Producers these days (at least over here) cry for drama in TV
Even though I am a big Lampley fan too, Jake does have a point. "It happened!" would not sound like anything if it was Frans Botha knocking out...
He is a heavyweight now and thus he must be rated as such. For a heavyweight he is not very good one. That being said, of course he is allowed to...
:atu: Awesome. I like totally lolled to his impressions of Merchant and Lederman
There is little point analyzing what a fighter says right after a fight when his emotions are high, especially when he is very disappointed. Very...
I know another preaching fighter who likes to headbutt his opponents. Must be somewhere in the Bible that cheating is cool
He wanted to surprise his wife on their 30th wedding day and do something special
That is it, IMHO. Passion to what you do, added to professional skill, is what makes charisma in most fields
Because my uncle had borrowed my copy of Ruiz vs Oquendo which I had planned to watch
Funny thing btw. I just recently watched a fight from the 70s Duane Bobick vs Chuck Wepner. Bobick at the time was an unproven yet ranked...
Word. Lampley is far from perfect, but few broadcasters in the history have had his charisma. Also, if you are going to talk live for hours and...
Actually Golota fight more broke his bubble than made it. He had become a contender by beating the likes of Izon (top-10 by the Ring at the time),...
Well don't forget that the only thing he has actually done in the heavyweight so far is to narrowly outpoint Chris Arreola. He beat a shot to shit...
Grant was universally ranked #3 when the division was still solid according to most, so he indeed has had a prime. And IMO younger, faster and...
Personally I would take on Jim Corbett and attack him
