thats the problem with being a lower weight fighter - beercan boxing fans dont know marquez unless they are mexican..and even then... marquez...
its naaive to say cotto is done
zab gets props because his natural skills are off the planet.
thats a big call. having no fear isn't enough on it's own so lets see what happens before we get even close to HOF
that fight could easily have been waved off in the second, but there are plenty of what ifs in boxing and cotto has made the most of it since then.
haha well said.
jesus christ i'm agreeing with rico...
thats because they both came back from losses to reign. hamed will always be judged harshly because he never even tried. that in itself...
if you want the man you earn the right. you dont expect the guy at the top of the tree to hand out discount vouchers to fighters who never tried...
excellent post. and in writing that you've really encapsulated why threads on calzaghe go so long and why it will keep cropping up.....because...
he would need to have beaten an elite fighter then...and to be an ATG he would've needed to do it consistently. he didnt do that.
torres on cotto round 2
you got that right ;)
fenech - nelson 1
i hope you're talking about retirement...
