Age in boxing is relative. Although in Morales' case he wasn't just aging, he was also too big for the weights he was fighting at.
Of course I'll place emphasis on a champ getting flattened early by someone who didn't notch a single significant win before or after. Or a heavy...
Well that's very convenient of you but a champion getting flattened early is a loss that counts. Same with the loss to Morales. They happened....
He wasn't green.
Conte helped create VADA testing so I doubt it.
He's had quite a few losses. Lost his title at flyweight via KO. Lost to a heavy underdog in Morales. And during his big run, earned notoriety by...
In other words, a tuneup. Same thing. And yes Carlos Contreras was a clubfighter.
Yeah. Pacquiao's losses hurt him considerably IMO. I don't even think it's that close right now and I'm glad the poll reflects that.
Well either way, it's a damn good win for Manny and definitely his best. Not enough to get him near Mayweather's stature though. At this point I...
Would rather not since he didn't have a chance at paper titles like today.
He was a clubfighter. And I'm pretty sure everyone knew then that it was a tuneup. No one regarded Sanchez as a good "challenge."
I really hope he's not saying that. Barrera was past prime but still elite when he fought Manny. Just like Floyd was past prime but still elite...
it was a tuneup for Barrera coming off a big win. nothing more. Sanchez looked like doodoo in his fight before that.
No, he was cashing out when Guerrero fought him. That was the last fight of his career. He was already finished well before then.
A lot of people thought he lost the last two bouts but both were close enough. There wasn't any robbery, that's for sure.
