Jame Kirkland - The new Mike Tyson?

Don't know anything about this. And he is much bigger than Gamboa. Lara is a different man to compare.

I know Denis Shafikov sparred with him and I heard a rumor Shafikov has broken his ribs but I don't know if it's true. Anyway, Selcuk looked like a Man against my tough as nails compatriot Marat Khuzeev. Good for him. Though he is too cocky...

 

There is nothing similar to there styles or there talents. McClellan actually had something called a jab and could throw straight punches. He also could box. McClellan's talents also makes James Kirkland look like me. The only thing they have in common is there shakey defences(which McClellan's really started to lack after he left Steward and became alot more wild and KO happy). And McClellan could get away with his bad D because of his amazing beard.

 

Kirkland actually throws pretty straight punches. I've seen several of his fights, and one thing he can do is throw straight punches. Kirkland also has a nice, stiff jab. However, he does not use it nearly enough. McClellan was great at setting up that big right hand with his jab. Again, I'm not saying Kirkland is as talented as McClellan. However, I do see some similarities in their style. The two big things that Kirkland needs to improve on now are consistently using that jab, and consistently moving that head.

On another note, why do you seem to take it so personally when someone voices an opinion that differs from yours?

 

His chin is far from granite,, he got dropped by some c level fighter couple years ago on espn

 

Cause I'm always right **** smoker you got a ****in problem with that???

 

You're always right? What about when you said the Cowboys were going to make the playoffs? What about when you said the Eagles weren't going to make the playoffs? What about when you said Julio was going to KO Kirkland?:yep

 

When I'm right I'm right, when I'm wrong I could been right, so I'm still right cause I coulda been wrong, you know, and I'm sorry cause I could be wrong right now, I could be wrong, but I'm right.

 

not a chance,, but i think he could pull an set in a title fight

 

Now dont take this the wrong way cos i love america and all but WTF is up wid u yanks?

Tyson went round biting peoples ears and legs, trying to get off with female reporters while on tape and saying **** like i wanna eat your children......Do we rly need another Mike Tyson?

 

I think us Yanks miss the popularity and hunger Tyson brought to boxing more than the man himself. When even Fresh Prince and Jazzy Jeff feel the need to write a song about him, that meant boxing had saturate US culture all the way down to Disney kids programming. Besides, for all we know, Lennox's kids might be all sorts of delicious.

 

Yes.

 

I'm not a Yank but I'd rather have Tyson back than Valuev kidding on he's heavyweight champion of the world, put it that way.

 

lmao..kirkland taking these clowns like 8-9 rounds, lol, he would get clobbered by dzinziruk, mora, forrest, martinez, and probably go life and death with oscar and angulo, and santos

 

I'm glad you said it, cause I know how ESB is and didn't want them bombing me....but, your right. IMO, he fights very similiarly to Iron Mike, and against Julio acouple times on the way in he was actually bobbing his head side to side, mirror image of how Tyson used to do it.

Don't care what anybody else thinks, its my OPINION.:yep

 

Kirkland is simply the next Frank "The Animal" Fletcher
