Willie "The Worm" Monroe vs David Love (27-12)....after a rough start to his carear Monroe looked to have righted the ship and be moving towards a potential MW title shot! After toiling in obscurity in the nationaly & globaly unknown Philadelphia gym wars of the late 60's and early 70's, Monroe looked to be on his way! Taking a decision from fellow PHILLY MW Cyclone Hart and beating the declining Kitten Hayward! Monroe gets a chance to battle Hagler (adopted as a PHILLY PHIGHTER for his willingness to come and battle so many guys in our back yard, when most other prospects didn't dare!). Monroe takes hagler to school and scores a VERY comfortable decision in what would go down as the only loss/draw Hagler does not dispute on his record. Hagler called it a boxing lesson that he learned from! Monroe seemed to be on his way to a potential title shot, when fighting Journeyman love in a low risk tune-up fight gets battered and stopped in 4 rds???? AAAUUUGGGHHHHH!!!!!
My favorite fighter is Paulie Malignaggi and watching the Khan-Malignaggi fight was just painful :verysad
Vargas - Mayorga, Vargas looked like a complete shell of even the shell he looked like in the Joval, Castillejo, and Mosley fights. Mayorga - De La Hoya, the only loss hes got where he just was never really 'in' the fight. (Yes he wasnt really 'in' the tito fight really, but he made himself known and it was a badass lil scrap) Wlad - Sanders, no comment needed Cotto - Pac? I dont know.... i guess i would say Pac because at least against Margarito he dominated almost half the rounds, looked straight up awsome in a few of them, and had a lot more moments then the Pac fight. Morales - Pac 3, no comment needed
Arguello/Pryor II: It was heart breaking to see the once great warrior sit on the canvass and take the count with a look of hopelessness on his face. Hearns/Barkley II: Tommy fought like the fear of getting knocked out again was much stronger than the desire to win. At the end of the fight his faced looked so bad he was barely recognizable. Ali/Holmes: Ali should not have been allowed to fight.
tyson douglas yeah i know the mcbride lewis williams holyfield etc were embarassing but they were after prison.... but douglas tyson shud have trained and if he hadnt made bad personal choices wud have retired g.o.a.t.
In my lifetime.....Buchanan / Roberto Duran..should have been a rematch but Duran would still have won.. Past all time favourite fighter...Will Peps 1st loss against Sandy Saddler
hamed - mab. that gutted me it did. froch - dirrell, although i believe he won this, the fight was dire and it was a bad performance by both. pascal - not been in a bad fight yet, yes he lost to froch, but it was a fight where both came out on top. khan - obviously prescott lol. haye - ismail abdoul, this was a **** fight. his lost to thompson should have been a haye victory had he paced himself. th win vs valuev was understandable considering the height disparity. but vs abdoul he made no effort to win the fight and was happy to play it safe. terrible fight to watch. hatton - pacman, it was brutal and painful, he got **** kicked outta him plus shipped a hail mary punch as well! witter - alexander, he looked an absolute shell.
Marquez against Norwood. I think he won that fight, but holy **** was it boring. Mosley against Mayweather, it was just sad watching him stand there without throwing eating 1-2's and his mouth hanging open. Looked so depressing on the stool.
Hearns v Barkley 2 - agree Tommy fought scared that night.......could of won that fight with the right mentality. Oscar v Tito - the biggest let down of a super fight you can get...then the bull**** descision at the end..........should of been a great fight but Oscar only fought for 8 rds.........Tito only 4!
