Ali's win over Foreman Tyson over Berbick Tszyus cut vs Fundora Hopkins right hook knockout of Trinidad Hatton vs Tszyu Douglas over Tyson Klitschko cut vs Lewis Which fights or moments have shaped or turned a career in the sport of boxing?
I knew he'd beat him. I knew it the moment that fight was announced. Even with the delays in the fight my belief never wavered just like Kambosos. Teo met a formidable opponent that day and he wilted.
Yeah I had that same feeling I knew George was gonna win I had about $200 on him I think and won about $1200 it was his moment the knockdown in the first round set the tone it was beautiful.
Kostya Tszyu knocking out Zab Judah in the second round was a career defining moment. Anthony Mundine beating Antwun Echols and then the huge domestic showdown with Danny Green. I also think Tim Tszyu beating Jeff Horn in a huge domestic fight was another career defining moment.
Yep I was going to mention Kostya. That was probably his best win don't you think? Tim's win vs Horn def career defining. Him and No Limit were all in on that fight. The Tony Harrison fight was his biggest win. 2023 was a great year.
Fenech v Nelson 1 - the draw ruined Fenech. Lester Ellis v Barry Michael - Michael had plugged away for years without fanfare and Ellis never rose to the same heights again after Michael beat him. Trinidad v David Reid - Reid faded into oblivion. Trinidad v Vargas - Vargas was never the same. Tszyu cut v Fundora.
Hi Guys. The breakaway from the cartel by Conteh was a bold move, but his big mistake was not taking Francis with him, only George knew how to protect and tape the slim and tender piano playing hands that were Contehs, not sure if it was over money, or loyalty, that phrase is vogue at the moment, but come what may, the first fight without Francis v Taylor defined all of John's career thereafter, he must look back and shake his head ruefully. stay safe guys. Mike.
Andy Ruiz Jr destroying AJ. Canelo & Byrd robbing Golovkin. Usyk moving to heavyweight (all other heavyweights' careers were destroyed). Povetkin's one hitter quitter against Whyte.
