Frazier I think.
Seriously, if Frazier fought Tua the way he fought Chuvalo for spells, early (and he would) - ie in and out, turning him, coming in from angles...
I think so too. Donaire is way WAY better than Pac was at the lower weights.
Frazier would win.
Why? They train both with weights & are 6'7, 8. And they're talented natural athletes. Seriously, take a walk down any decent gym you see guys...
That's what Im inclined to think, but when the very, very best don't and remain the very very best....it raises doubts.
I don't think those kind of parallels/expectations are fair, mate, Pac's a fucking freak. :lol: If he wins a featherweight title one day he'll...
At that stage of their careers? Donaire ALL THE WAY.
Sorry, aye, I mainly mean the practice of drying out weight rapidly just to make scale weight then bloating back up in the next 36 hours. Like a...
Duran fought in the days of same day weigh ins. I doubt he came in much heavier than contracted weight in his prime.
Obviously too big and blind a one to get the connection here.....:dunno:
So obviously the two best fighters in the sport don't really cut & rehydrate much weight (Floyd moves 3 or 4 lb, now, post 'retirement' comeback)....
From a 17, 18 year old brutally starving himself to make weight to a 30 year old man now, NOT cutting weight? 30, 40lb seems pretty much what...
What does everyone think Marquez is best doing weight wise? Come in light and fast or maximize his size?
I guess I'll just be the one to make myself really unpopular and say Roy getting stretched out by Tarver does raise certain questions about his...
aye, lets get the cleaner over to inject roids into my ass, too. Hey is that a passer by walked in off the street to watch some training? You do...
Beats them all.
But we all still know that full well. So how is his legacy being damaged? Is Ali's legacy damaged by being seen in public not being able to walk...
I'm not sure Louis can win a decision here. I think it's Louis by stoppage or Holy by decision personally. Evander's movement and counter punching...
Frazier by close decision I think. I think he's ultimately too busy and too strong/big, but the Walcott of the first Louis fight has enough to see...
I take issue with the premise of the thread since I don't really think you can damage your legacy by fighting on too long. Is the 1994 version of...
I'd say Holy, slightly.
mikE and his titles. It ain't 1972 any more mate, titles mean SHIT.
Wallcott was right at the end of the line too, of course....:scared2: I think fightbeat has him about right, tbh.
Charles was quite a few years past prime to be fair (and like say Roy Jones, he declined quickly and was losing as many as he won in no time). The...
Fuck Pac for this. I could almost forgive the lowered catch weights against Cotto & Margarito since he was clearly at such a size disadvantage....
So do I, tbh. This is a bullshit fight.
Ezzard Charles is probably the most underrated fighter ever, full stop. Underrated heavyweight? Nah, dude was 181lb.
Yawn. Fuck Pac & Floyd 100 times.
Liston's 10 opponents prior to Ali had an average weight of under 200lb (198.3). You think those guys would do better against Wlad than they did...
