Rigo is most likely just too big first and foremost. If they were the same size, I think Moon's unpredictable, non-textbook aggression, strength...
15 years later; 884 pages...nice to see my old thread still going strong. I rewatched Kalambay vs Collins earlier for the first time in many...
If you're talking about that specific punch, then you need to consider the stupid situation Graham put himself in to get tagged with it in the...
As far as Hagler goes, Mike made a big career mistake staying at 154 to fight for the title and thinking everything would come to him there. He...

Johnson sucked at 175.Heart didn't look in the sport anymore after the controversial JD Jackson and Castro losses at 160. He looked soft and...

'90s post Mel Taylor\second Mayweather fight Chavez is one of the most frequently overestimated fighters of all time imo. He became one-paced and...
Sanchez and Gomez was a similar size difference to what there would have been had sanchez gone up and fought a big lightweight like Duran or...
Gomez was a natural Bantamweight that fought at 122 because it let him take it easier as far as weightmaking goes, he was no bigger than Olivares...
