Back in those days it was much closer to 160 by necessity because back then the weighed in same day as the fight. Nowadays, guys have 24 hours to...
Jackson didn't hit like a normal 154 pound man. His power was very different. Not saying he hit like Bob Foster shot for shot but he was...
I know Pavlik typically walked around at 180 which is fairly common for most middleweights for the last 20 years or so. I think the main reason...
Tough, physical fight between two huge middleweights. I like this matchup much more for Gman than yesterday's at 168 against Kessler. Pavlik...
I always liked Badou but at 41 years old and way over his natural fighting weight, I don't see him as a top ten guy let alone a belt holder. He...

I just meant that both men suffered injuries that ended their careers with Gman's obviously far more severe. I hope Kessler is doing well in...
Good point Bert! I think he certainly was comprised when he entered the ring against Benn. I remember the stories about him getting hurt by jabs...
Good fight on paper. I have to admit, I was a little disappointed with M'billi's performance against Sergey last time out. I think he matches up...
Kessler destroyed Green with that left hook. Honestly, that was the most aggressive I have ever seen Kessler. He did get caught in the first...
I like Kessler's outside game in this one. Plus, Kessler was defensively pretty good and would resist getting dragged into slugfest. He had a...
Axel won for sure. A few years later, George lost a fight to Shannon Briggs in a fight that he clearly should have won so it balanced our. Axel...
If I had to guess, maybe five or so which was what it usually was for that era. Nowadays, with 24 hour hydration, it can be 20 pounds or more...
Thanks. It pains me to pick against Red.
I love Red but Navverete's size is a huge factor just like it was this weekend. The same day weight in is such a factor in this fight as...
