I think really excellent trainers probably drill the fundamentals obsessively. Footwork, balance, range, bringing the hands back high. All the...
Don't tell me what to do. :warning:
My objection to this fight is a suspended sentence. If it's just a run-through busy fight for Bradley in July, no problemo.
:lol: Sorry....
I don't see any real similarities between Machen & Terrel as they relate to how they'd deal with Ali, tbh. Terrel was a pretty high energy guy who...
Being really, really smart & being a really good communicator, most likely. Like the greatest trainer in history, Floyd Mayweather Sr.
It's a fairly superficial analysis but the fact that Young tended not to rely on his feet massively in his defence bodes well for Louis I think....
Impressions of Hately Pros. Extremely accurate long range puncher Very alert to openings at range Seemingly a very hard puncher, though not...
I'm D/Ling the torrent as we speak, will comment on the fight later.:bears: Sounds to me like Hatley was matched extremely aggressively which I...
It's a shame Ortiz is having to step up. He's already stocky and his strength advantage is a facet of his style, don't know how he'll handle 147....
I don't find it a very important point, tbh. In fact i won't even bore us all with the counter points since I'm sure we can all anticipate them...
Can anyone think of any MMs where they think a guy considered far inferior would greatly trouble a great fighter? Like my opinion on Machen-Ali,...
Yeah I think prime Ali definitely wins. I think Machen gives him problems though and if it's a pre or post prime Ali the potential for a...
Milderberger is pretty much the exact opposite of said characteristics.
Young & Jones were both smaller & slower and neither were particularly big punchers. But both were very skilled counter punchers & feinters who...
I personally like Machen's counter punching & patience to give Ali a really shitty night here. The big man was never comfortable leading the dance...
Bet it's Kessington Square beside the east end of Glasgow :lol:
Relative to the size of boxing itself, Hagler-Hearns wasn't that much bigger than Hopkins-Trinidad. Both were fights between top 10 p4pers and...
Let's make it a fightbeat tradition.:bears:
Me & Sly are still e-enemies forever though.
I think Hagler is greater. But I think the question is worthy of a thread and I'm not too disappointed that the final vote has turned out close,...
Right that's it, you've been grinding my seeds for too long sly. E-blood-fued forever!:flip:
I disagree fairly strongly.....for all the reasons I've already went through and won't bore you with again :NotThink:
Hopkins was a phenomenal fighter. He'd give any middleweight, ever, a bastard of a fight. I still think Hopkins 98-99 edges out Jones, actually.
I don't think McCloskey is a goer, but yeah, Khanvs tba & Berto/Ortiz is a very decent double bill
I don't think they'd pull him even, personally. I don't even think they'd pull him that close. And I definitely don't think Hopkins deserves extra...
Lewis sucked. 'Biiig ooooop' while curling his lip and thumping his chest. Total charisma vacuum.
I think there's maybe some distinction to be made between combination punching and flurrying. Marquez is a combination puncher. Every punch is...
:lol:
Separate names with a comma.
