You mysteriously "forgot" the fight where Barkley was walked over in a single round just two fights removed from Duran. There were plenty of...
The flipside to this argument is that Thurman was undefeated and had been an established top fighter in his division for several years, while...
LaPorte gave him a decent fight for a few rounds, but Sanchez took over and gave him a fair beating down the stretch. It was a gutty display by...
I think the Thurman win already solidified him a spot in the top 10 (albeit at the very bottom IMO). Beating Spence could give him a case for...
130 Floyd was a great fighter, but mid 60s Ali was simply a freakish, almost once-in-a-lifetime talent. Arguing that "Floyd was more technically...
I think Chavez's struggle with LaPorte is an indicator that he didn't reach his physical peak until he moved up to 135.
He also has the distinction of having beaten his Canadian doppelganger: https://boxrec.com/en/proboxer/44385
I agree, I think that Robinson basically does to Leonard what Leonard did to Benitez.
It doesn't bode well for Ramirez that Taylor was able to halt his momentum with a single big left to the stomach, and here he'd be fighting...
I think these two arguments are very contradictory. Robinson was called on to improvise far more frequently in his career than Leonard ever was....
I agree, Moon-Watcher's counterpunching technique was pretty innovative. [MEDIA]
I don't think Espana did enough in his career to justify being favored over someone like Porter. At best, he's an unknown quantity.
Maybe, but in the end, he doesn't have a realistic claim to being either - he was not the single most phenomenally talented or well-rounded...
I think Pac has secured a top 10 spot - the Thurman win puts him over the edge IMO. Prior to that, I would've said it was debatable. I have...
I think the fact that Tyson's dominant streak was so relatively brief hurts his legacy moreso than his inability to win titles at a higher weight....
Saunders was the kind of fighter that people love to downplay or dismiss, but nobody seems to want to get in the ring with and take care of for...
Probably how I would view them as well.
So you criticize G for not fighting beltholders like Badou and Uzcategui, yet you find fault when he does fight beltholders like Jacobs and...
The Monroe and Lemieux fights you mentioned happened prior to that. On top of that, Lemieux was a big PPV/unification event against a guy...
If boxing was properly supervised, yes. Oscar was asked whether he wanted to petition any bodies to overturn the result, but he elected not to...
He unified titles against two of the next best opponents in his division after Canelo - that hardly seems like "coasting." On top of that, he did...
He did know what was in the substances - he's admitted as such numerous times, including in secret grand jury testimony from 2003 that was...
Thurman showed a lot of guts and resilience in winning a war with Porter and battling back to narrow his early deficit against Pac. I think he...
I thought it was interesting until I got to the last two paragraphs. :HN:
I don't see it - Tszyu showed more power at the elite level, was more versatile, and had a tested/proven iron chin. The only advantage I see for...
I disagree, I thought G pretty much dominated the fight from around the 4th round onward. Canelo spent about two-thirds of the fight on the...
There are avenues to victory for Golota thanks to his physical advantages and Shavers' various weaknesses, but even the slightest slip-up by...
This. He went through a number of trainers (Emanuel Steward trained him at one point) but he never progressed beyond being able to beat...
The Brits have been royally fkked.
Does Eubank have any hope of beating a genuinely great fighter other than "lure him into a big right and hope for a KO"? I'll take Nino on...
