It's funny how this sport changes through the years. Bert Sugar use to right about it all the time. The 20's and 30's were loaded with Irish,...
I agree with you. The irony is what I love about Hagler is what I love about McCallum. Look at 77' to 83' on Hagler's record. Beating Willie...
Trainers loved him, promoters never could market him so ge would jump ship on them. He stopped working with Manny Steward because he was jealous...

I'm big Chris John fan and see him simply doing what he always did. Winning rounds. John via decision.
Dominant Cuban amateurs that have underwhelming pro careers is nothing new in boxing. Last night is going to be very damaging to Ramirez's...
