such fine lines,knocked Ruiz down with a belter of a shot and got caught off a wounded man.Guess the rematch will show us the truth?
Quote from the Las Vegas Sun "A Tszyu-Phillips rematch has been discussed for more than a year without anything coming to pass" https://lasvegassun.com/news/1998/aug/06/tszyus-eyes-opened-with-loss-to-phillips/ The fight was named upset of the year by The Ring Magazine 1997 (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Ring_magazine_Upset_of_the_Year) Kostya proved his greatness by going on to be undisputed light - welterweight champion , Vince on the other hand fought for another 8 years albeit never again for a world title . As the thread question posed " A time a boxer had an off night" , Kostya had an off night that night .
Holyfield vs Moorer 1, Vince Philips vs Kostya Tszyu, Gonzalez vs Rungvisai 2, Mike Tyson vs Buster Douglas, Jose Napoles vs Billy Backus 1, Terry Norris vs Simon Brown 1, Klitschko vs Tyson Fury, Laing vs Duran, Raheem vs Morales, Tiberi vs Toney
That senator had rotator cuff surgery thats what cured him Whereas Floyd said it was Ellerbees caresses that cured him he didnt need surgery ROFLMAO The Floydettes have to be the dumbest bunch ever to believe a word that little cretin says
Lookin back on it, when it happened I figured Holy had a habit of fighting up/down to level of competition. Moorer wasn't a great fighter, but he did become 2x champ. Just like with Holy, he barely edged Shulz, but I digress. no excuses 2nd time out, Holy proved MM wasn't on his level.
WOW! I thought about this fight, but after thinking a little more, I don't think it was an off night. Even thought Zman got the 'w' next fight he loss to Freitas, but Acelino looked anything but good. To me, Zahir has a fight style that stinks like an overloaded garbage truck in 110 degrees heat. Just as Junior Jones had MAB's #, similar for Raheem, in that he stunk out Morales' gameplan like Freitas who escaped with a split Decision. I rate Raheem as one of the worst funky eye sore styles ever. Junior Witter, Zahir Raheem, John Ruiz my bottom 3-WOAT. Worst of ALL TIME! EDIT---my bad,.,i will have to rewatch this fight, I can't get the raheem Freitas fight out of my mind, so I may be mistaken on how Morales lost.
I think style clash is the phrase you were looking for with Danny vs. Herrera. That match would look the same 10 out of 10 times. Not even close to an off night.
