And you were at home, or in an arena seat, screaming robbery. As a companion to my other thread. When, in boxing, has a fight gone to a...
Stevenson was a great amateur boxer, not a great fighter. Amateurs rarely peak that young, and its impossible to master the craft at a 12-15...
You yourself agreed with the three(or two) judges who scored the fight the way it hit the books. Not thinking one guy won Hagler-Leonard, but...
I still wouldnt call the Hagler result super decisive. It was a good, close fight. I had Duran beating Leonard 9-6 in Montreal myself. No...
Ali was always gonna get Parkinsons. But, that is not all he suffers from. Boxing didn't give him Parkinsons disease, but it definitely gave...
I consider the better man the guy who wins the fight. Ray had a hard time figuring Tommy out, and in the end, figured him, ****ed him up in short...

In the end, a lot of things contributed but the broken right hand doomed Hearns in the Hagler fight. He was determined, whether through a fight or...
I can concede this. All I know is, that is the weakest looking Trinidad that ever fought at 147. He looked emaciated, with bags under his eyes...
I agree, with the fight like a demon part. Clear emphasis on fight like a demon. To me, thats a key moment. Once his legs return, he spends round...
Extremely. I've always said that had Oscar just put the pedal to the damn metal, he'd have stopped Tito in a few rounds. Trinidad was dead and...
Representing the last category! When I remember I was 2 wins away from being an Olympian, I feel young. When I come on here and see how...
