Fighters that you liked (or still like) but don't bother watching anymore...

There's hardly anyone I'd go out of my way to watch right, so pretty much everyone is the answer. The average age of the Ring top 10 p4p is Thirty-fucking three, right now! 33. :crying: What's going on!?

Haye is the only guy Im excited to watch. And if JMM is fighting I always make sure I see it. But other than that top class boxers are a dying breed.

 

I can't believe I'm the first to mention him, but Evander Holyfield.

I was a HUGE Holyfield fan. But he has tarnished his legend to the point where I want to see him get brutally KO'd, just so he will finally hang them up for good.

TFK

 

Probably because nobody even thought to mention it. I think just about everyone other than Evander himself feels the same way.

 

MAB - used to love his warring style (Morales MAB I). Not really interested in his defense first style he's adopted as time has passes.

Wlad. He used to be a tiger in the ring - now he's a typical Steward hit and hold fighter.

PBF - at 130 and 135 he fought everyone and beat the hell out of his opposition. Since moving up, he's taken the path of least resistence because it's obvious he can't handle the power of guys his size.

Hopkins - compare his craft countering in his first fight with Echols to his cowardly performances againt Taylor.

 

Ofcourse though, the trouble with comparing Taylor to Echols is that one is a midget middleweight scrub, a 'tocker pudwill' of sorts, and the other is 3/4's Hopkins size instead of half, but with kaboodles of skill and handspeed with noteable victories on his resume like Bernard Hopkins twice, at the time that they fought.

 

I don't want Morales to come back but if he does ill be front and centre in front of the tv. I just hope that he doesn't end up perminently damaged which is a possibility considering how much punishment he has already taken and is willing to take when he fights.

 

agREED....I purchased the Ajamu and Hanshaw fights. can't see Roy on PPV again unless he's doing an independent show...can't see myself purchasing.

 

You must have a good pension to have paid for those fights.

Jones could probably look like the "old Roy" in flashes into his 50's. That's the problem, they are only in flashes.

Although he didn't look as pathetic as Tyson did in last few fights, it was still painful to watch.

There were some similarities though. Even Tyson showed some "vintage" stuff for a few moments in his losses.

Sometimes that makes it even worse to witness. It provides a false hope.

What bothers me the most is that Roy-Calz and Tyson-Lewis could have been made closer to their primes.

 

Tyson, even at the end of his career, never put on the pussy performances I've seen frm RJJ.

 

Apparently you missed a few fights.

 

no i didn't. tyson always FOUGHT whether he was KO'd or not, he never took the pussy route.

 

We repeat. Apparently, you missed a few fights. As soon as he realized he wasn't gonna KO nobody Tyson gave up quite a few times. Not saying Roy showed world class heart lately but saying that about Tyson is complete rubish.

 

regardless of the outcome, have you ever seen tyson NOT throw caution to the wind and inflict damage on his opponent? Tyson's issues have always been stamina-related. RJJ's have always been that he expects to win fights without getting hit.

 

So he DIDN'T Take the "Pussy Route" vs. Kevin McBride???...Or How about when he Sat on his Ass & ALLOWED himself to B Counted Out N the Danny Williams Fight??....



REED:boohoo:

 

The Fucked Up Thing about U Doub is that if U LIKE a Fighter, U GRANT him All Kinds of ALLOWANCES to QUIT or Whatever Else...

But when U HATE a Guy, he can NEVER EVER Do Anything Right N your PATHETIC Eye's.....



REED:boohoo:

 

I could never do that... Roy has done enough for me in boxing that i would pay 3 PPVs a year for just as long as he wishes to continue.


WAR RJJ!!! :kidcool:


Although i would want him to retire, maybe after a farewell fight. :cheer:

 

i give rjj credit for the hopkins fight, the 1st tarver fight especially, even the saosa fight. but by and large he fought like a puss.

like i said, tyson just didn't train towards the end of his career - had nothing to do with his heart.

 

So when Tyson SAT on his Ass & was Perfectly ABLE to Continue Fighting(Against Danny Williams), that had NATHAN To Do w/his Heart???...& When HE Told his Corner to STOP the Kevin McBride Fight, that had NATHAN to Do w/his Heart???...

Yet as Roy Jones Donated PINTS of his Own Blood to the MSG Ring Canvas, he was Fighting like a "Puss"???...

Like REED Said, when YOU Hate a Guy, U'll Go to INCREDIBLE Lengths to Justify your IDIOCY...
