Yup, fo SURE. As I said, incontestably SURE. If you're seriously telling me that Ward, Berto, Bute, Dawson, Kessler etc are ever gonna blossom...
Read post 36 again. I think the point that the talent has dried up alarmingly is pretty incontestable, based on that. Closing our eyes and going...
Not by the actual way of measuring it that works (body fat % which the WHO uses as the measure). In fact he'd be in the bottom 10th percentile of...
Is he? Bigger at the gate draw in NY, yes. Bigger name to help sell a ppv......?? Dunno about that. Mosley is a very good name to have as dance...
For fuck sake man. Who said it was a matter of DUCKING anybody? You brought that up, you're the only person wanting to talk about Pac ducking...
And what have they produced in the last ten years? A single hall of fame worthy champion in the 00s? Forgive me if your observation doesn't have...
Name a single hall of fame fighter from the 30s onward who fought anywhere from 122-147 who never fought a single african american. There can't be...
The disparity in name power between Cotto/Marquez, and Mosley/Clottey wasn't NEARLY as pronounced, so there was a fairer comparison to make there....
Which would be an interesting question if Asians had dominated boxing for the last 100 years.....Fact is a great fighter getting to 31 without...
Cool. Unless you have something to back it up with, keep it to yourself.
I've never seen anything to suggest Sly's racist. He seems to hate England and thinks it's a racist country since he got loads of shit there...
Get a grip man. It's interesting trivia since African Americans have dominated boxing for 100 years. Nothing more.
Retire.
But they haven't come for a full decade. How much more unsuspecting can we get? Boxing as a talent pool has simply dried up, by the looks of...
Seems to be allot of welterweight match ups lately between second echelon guys. Lets settle this thing! Who's the king of the lower tier modern...
Mosley by fairly wide UD.
Forrest is right at the upper echelon of fighters Tito might be capable of beating. Could go either way. I'd lean towards Tito's aggression eeking...
1.1 sounds about right. Mosley's a much bigger name than Clottey and I think Floyd's a SLIGHTLY bigger draw than Pac, so 1.1 vs 0.7 sounds about...
The 'boy' is 30 years old. Tim Bradley again, good, not great. Ditto for Hatton. Yet another reason Pac-May MUST happen. It may be the last...
None of these guys are a Ray Robinson or Tommy Hearns or Emile Griffith or Roy Jones or Pernel Whitaker or even a Pac or Floyd. They just aren't,...
If another Joe Calzaghe is the best the next decade has to offer I think I'll go pull a River Pheonix and die young.:popcorn:
I personally can't imagine anybody talking about Chad Dawson or Lucian Bute in 50 years with awed reverence.
Unfortunately I don't think any of them will go down as great. Andre Berto, Chad Dawson, Bute....these guys are no better than your Taylor, Cotto...
Just wanna mention that that stupid post I made with the >>>>> signs was obviously wrong and intended to be the other way round! ♫I am so smart!...
Thought just occurred.....will Juan Manual Marquez go down as the ONLY great fighter to win their first world title in the 00's?:doh: Seriously?
Dunno about this one. Did Marciano ever fight a puncher in Tua's league? Marciano by decision, provisionally,,,,,
:lol::lol:
Yeah exactly. And this fight is SO big chances are good it might well persuade NSAC to suddenly take an ethical stand re: fighters safety at...
Hearns by decision in a messy one.
Yeah exactly, the way he turned that fight round after that spell in the middle rounds was extremely impressive. And it's not just...
