Moving isn't against the rules. Excessive holding is. Pretty simple point. Duran 'held' to maul and hurt guys, Wlad holds to avoid fighting....
He's right. It's effective because refs don't enforce the rules, but on that particular point he's right.
Corey Spinks dominated welterweight for half a decade?
What the fuck was everybody involved in those thinking?
To call it an interm championship is too generous. It's effectively a box off for the position of number 1 contender. And if Povetkin has no...
2011 is shit.
Cut out all starchy and sugary carbs. Lift weights. The end.
Amir Khan on the inside.
Being undefeated doesn't make you better.
To me 'conclusive' means 'a rematch wouldn't be in much doubt'. You've concluded the argument as to who's better head to head. Winning on the...
Agreed. A case could be made for Holyfield but I think it's Vitali, too.
He was a great super featherweight. But to go without qualifying that by making it clear his claims to be greater than Ray Robinson as a...
I think Bruno would beat Sanders pretty easy. The first couple of rounds would be hairy but once the going got tough Bruno would be the one who...
Duran held 160 pretty decently. Marquez weighed 142 in the ring and looked flabby.
Duran was a world champion at 154. One division. There were no bullshit fake weight agreements and neither was the whole thing a cheap attempt to...
For the record, Floyd-Marquez is probably my least favourite fight ever. I still smell dog shit everywhere I go from the taste that cynical...
Must I type out the objection to this?:Steve-Dave/MMA:
Obviously Hagler's body wasn't as suited to higher weights as Hopkins, wouldn't have carried the extra muscle nearly as well and didn't have...
I'm not sure the result would have been any different if he'd come in brave. He had nothing for Tyson.
I really don't think Lewis would be able to blast Young out, personally.
Nah actually, thats a legit KO.
Then the foolhardy part was surely fighting 4 times in 4 years in the first place. And Pac blows too. Fuck them both. The sport's basically in...
By any normal standards Ortiz is a good opponent, but when you only fight once a year.... anything except Pac is flat out unsatisfactory.
I think he's proven he's a great fighter but not proven he's a great welterweight.
Apparently Shaefer is today saying Floyd has said he wants to start fighting 3, 4 times a year for the next few years and have 10 more fights. I...
Most of Lewis' KOs were him JUMPING on a guy. Tearing through them like a tornado (& with the kind of huge intensity it's difficult to muster in...
'Fake it'? No. Go in looking for a place to lie down? Pretty much, yes. Could he have gotten up or tried to but decided not to? I think so.
BTW, I have to give a little bit of credit to Frank Bruno in the next fight for that - he was probably even more scared than Spinks (I read...
Can I be a part of this agreement too?
His whole point is he wouldnt have to 'go after' him. Foreman would force the issue. FWIW, I'd favour George over Wlad
