Most of the rounds were extremely close, though. Conteh was hard pressed for much of the fight.
I'll add that he put his punches together -- and set them up -- in extremely sophisticated ways. I've been watching boxing for decades, yet I've...
Tank would be no match for David Haye. I think Haye would stop him.
Lopez was one hell of a fighter...one of the very best never to have won a world championship. Recently I saw the Lopez-Conteh fight. I was amazed...

This thread is a natural for our resident highbrow writer, Stonehands, who is a huge Duran afficionado. He probably missed this thread because he...
Duran would win a razor close -- and possibly controversial -- decision. Whittaker would give him fits. I think Duran would prevail, though,...

Thompson whipped Solis. Kudos to Tony Thompson...the dude has longevity as a contender. I totally respect him; he's world-class all the way.
This fight would be competitive for about five rounds at most. By the middle rounds, though, Qawi would have knocked Johnson out. Johnson simply...
Rahman got ripped off. He should have won by DQ, or been given a lengthy recovery period before resuming the fight. Other options, maybe, were...
Easy win for Golota. Botha was tough, but he couldn't have coped with Golota's jab. Botha didn't have the power to trouble Golota, either.
