I thought some folks might be interested in watching these two fights. Chong-pal Park v. Kyung-min Na II is the first fight (you actually see a...
Yes; Duran looked small even against Benitez - who won is first title at 140. To say that Duran was a "physically strong" 154 pounder is simply...
In a lot of fights at the heavier weights Duran was in fact pushed around early, before the accumulated punches sapped his opponents' strength;...
The Cuevas fight is now a real stretch; come on, you know better! ;) Cuevas was himself moving up, didn't look like he belonged at the weight, and...
ROFL, good stuff ;)

Exactly. And they outline what Dundee told them about Leonard's aggressive game plan.
Hearns landed a few big rights on him; otherwise, he landed very few solid shots on him, as almost everything big were parried or outright hit...
I don't know; Ali's jab at times seems to lack the snap that Liston or Louis' jabs consistently posssessed; heck, even Holmes' jab was a lot...
I tend to think Frazier would have given Ali tremendous trouble even if Ali were at his absolute peak. I think I recall Dundee or Pacheco once...
No need to employ the "f" word, albeit in abbreviated form. First, I put a smiley emote there, and it was obviously in jest. Second, I don't think...
