It matters not if they are afraid to step in or not, the point is that it should be possible. And after that the lousy gold medal would actually...
It is, and the rule is held up by AIBA (the amateur boxing association). And that very rule is goddamn ridiculous. It is like banning all the...
Because of old and ridiculous differences between sanctioning bodies, boxing is the only individual sport that denies its best athletes from...
I saw it, it was among the better bouts of the games. skilful boxing throughout. There were scoring errors like in amateur fights there always are...
'88,when there was another boycott:kick::lol: Of the games where they have participated, I have no idea. Must be a while
Word. The Colobian guy was the only one who actually gave Cammarelle some trouble, this China man and Price got handled easily. the Russian guy,...
A welterweight now is not necessarily faster than a welterweight of the past but keep in mind that the old-timer is clearly smaller
Yeah, the headbuttboy was wearing himself out there. Without the delay, he woud have been done after nine rounds and Bowe would have taken the...
Two highway robberies:bears:
I scored the fight in favor of Smith. He effectively took away tyson's infighting and then nearly murdered him in the last round
What about the gift decision Tyson received against Bonecrusher Smith?
That is true. Many countries see amateur boxing and the olympics as the main goal in their careers while for US it is a practicing ground for...
There have been others. Ed Sanders captured heavyweight gold in '52 (beating Ingemar Johanson in finals). He had a pro career too but in like his...
I'd like to know which country is it that pays 250 grand to a winner? Atlas didn't tell that. I don't think Finland pays even 20 000 for any...

"This clown will be dealt with":cheer:
I'd say in November but I could be wrong
Considering that Lacy is bigger, has never been stoppep and that Taylor couldn't stop nor really even threaten Kassim Ouma I find this a bit exrteme
:boohoo:if the fighter himself doesn't believe he is the best in the world then why the hell should he be fighting at all? Fighters need...
So you don't think Tito needs the low blows from the mid-rounds to overcome Margarito?:stir:
That is just stupid. That's like saying that since running has existed in 1920, the runners back then were as fast as they are now. You can do the...
I never said Patterson would outfight Williams on inside but keep making shit up if that helps you winning arguments. Seems to me you need it. Btw...
Fighting better in this case too means obviously fighting in exciting manner. Since Wlad won almost every round before the KO, he can't really do...
This is what I disagree in. I agree he looks clumsy but that is not to be confused with not being effetive. Because if it was the way you (and so...
They do, before they get hit that is:stir::mj:
Just for you to consider: Calvin Brock against Wlad was 6'2 224 lbs. George Foreman against Joe Frazier was 6'3 1/2 217 lbs. That's your modern...
Why couldn't he fight even one top-10 contender? Just one? If he'd do that, the fight would become much more interesting too
I am thinking. Sorry about that
Yes, they both beat one top-10 contender. Of course in the past decades we have had lt.heavyweights with much more success against heavyweights...
Maybe so. Maybe soccer is supposed to have more broken legs and killed players. It is just what you like. If you want more colourful fights, they...
