The Arreola/Tyson comparison made me laugh pretty hard. Chris hits hard and often but he's no where in the same leauge as Tyson when it comes to sharpness, effecitve punching, accuracy, and power.

 

I think Vitali could hang with any heavyweight in history too. He has a granite chin, so I can't see him getting sparked. "Hang with" doesn't mean beat, it just means be competitive.

 

LOL, even before he got KTFO the vast majority of fans could see it coming. That's sad.

 

Steward is on the borderline alot. He's a hype man on the under. Good quotes.

 

:yikes

Did he actually say that?

 

Kellerman is a joke. He is running out of bandwagons. "Angulo is so powerful and so....oh, Mayorga just got KTFO".

 

I really don't think Kellerman is a joke. I didn't like him at first, but as the time goes by he has gained my respect.

Truth is, all commentators/analysts say something stupid from time to time.

 

Why is this outrageous?
He did used steroids...

 

Probably meant Chavez JR, in which case it would be true.

Otherwise he is a ******.

 

why don't we just call this thread, "hating on people"

 

Neither did Barry Bonds or Mark McGwire.

Also, Eddie Murphy was just giving that tranny hooker a ride home.

 

definitely...he is BIGGER andhe can box...shane will be in the hall of fame ..areolla=tyson is FAIL and frankly just ignorant...tyson was not sloppy..he used a jab and had way more explosion on all his pnches..that is just ******ed
