Controversial boxing opinions....

jack johnson punishes tyson

 

That's right, but the fight was close.
My scorecard was :
1- DLH 10-9 clear round
2- Quartey 10-9 clear round
3- DLH 10-9 clear round
4- Even 10-10 very close round
5- Quartey 10-9 clear
6- Quartey 10-9 both scored knockdowns but Quartey finished stronger
7- Quartey 10-9 clear
8- Quartey 10-9 clear
9- Quartey 10-9 clear
10- DLH 10-9 clear
11- DLH 10-9 very close round, I thought DLH did a bit more
12- DLH 10-8 clear
I had 114-114 even. There were two close rounds that could have gone either way, the 4th and the 11th. I had 1-0-1 for DLH in those rounds. So any result between 114-113 for DLH or 115-112 for Quartey is OK. IMO.

 

Roberto Duran is an all time great P4P and lightweight but he would not have beaten Benny Leonard, Joe Gans or Pernell Whitaker. In a prime vs prime match up.

 

1) Calzaghe would beat everyone at 168, including Toney and Roy.
2) Jack Dempsey could still capture at least one HW belt if he fought today.
3) Steroid and HGH use was more common in the last 15 years than positive tests would lead us to believe.

 

1) Paris Hilton is NOT attractive... :verysad

 

If you called Santa Cruz-Casamayor in favor of Casa, doublesuited, then I seriously question whether you actually follow the sport of boxing yourself. One of the worst decisions that I've ever seen.

 

paranoid.

 

Great thread!
1. Prime Tyson KO's Ali
2. DLH - Mayweather was a draw
3. Cotto - Mosley was a draw
(modern boxing politics have all but phased out the draw)
4. Mayorga KO's Cotto
5. Floyd IS P4P top 3 all-time in the SKILLS department
6. Zab Judah is a phenomenal fighter
7. So is Ricky Hatton
8. Contrary to the belief of 1000's of Philipino ladies, Pacs mustache is not suave.
9. Oscar will beat Cotto, unless of course it goes to the cards
10. Roy is not "shot"

 

If Bowe would have fought Lewis after beating Holyfield he would have won.

 

RJJ is not a top 100 ATG....

 

I never said he was, nor pertended he would be one...he is a solid HOF and I know that

 

America was damn lucky russia and the other east europe nations were never allowed to box pro from the 50s till the early 90s,if they had the chances are america would have not dominated for so long.Remember joe louis and ali being forced to have bum of the month fights,because of the lack of any one bar the top men to fight,and there fore having to wait a long time to refight them,in between they had to fight a lot of not to hot men.

 

mundine would beat calzaghe easy
