Michael Watson vs Iran Barkley

Barkley was able to catch Duran who had a better defense than Watson did.

 

No, Watson was getting countered a lot early on v Eubank and was missing most of his shots.

 

No Foreman was better than Benn and had better glove control Ali`s counters were sharper than Watson`s.

 

That was a perfect right hand very late to a drained Prince Charles, pinpoint.

Watson's timed overarm right scored tonnes of knockdowns against the durable imports on Grandstand, as well as took out amateur world #1 John Beckles in 30 seconds in London in Olympic year

Guys like Stackhouse were over in the first 30 seconds from it - took Duran the distance

One of them opened up Don Lee's cheekbone

Toney could punch, but had better timing and traps and waited for the late rounds

Watson was humongous oak for 160lb

 

Sibbo couldn't hurt Lee and he was supposed to have the biggest left hook in boxing

 

And Watson was attrition with the leads; heavy stiff hitting, Toney a sneaky counter-puncher

Not difficult to see. Word games are word games, but you have eyes

 

I truly didn`t see a lot of power in Watson`s shots, a lot of them were arm punches and single jabs.

 

I'd love to see you try to take one

 

The Lee stoppage wasn`t that impressive, he wasn`t even that hurt, just got hit with several stiff rights and the ref waved it off, if Sibbo hit Lee with that many hooks in that space of time the fight would have been stopped too, Southpaws are wide open to straight rights, Sibbo just didn`t have the savvy to know that and lande the left hook on a southpaw is harder than landing straight rights.

 

I only weigh 147 pounds WAtson weighed 160-168, though I did suffer a broken jaw when I was attacked in the street and still didn`t pass out.

 

Duran was a shot lightweight who put Iran down.
Watson hurts and busts up Iran easily.
Name me one middleweight the Barkley knocked out with one punch besides Hearns.
Bsrkley doesn't have a Julian Jackson type power.

 

Duran still had better head movement than Watson in 1989.

 

Watson would leave you in intensive care with a gloved fistic punch, with a time machine

 

Hearns.
