Controversial statements on boxing that you stand by...

Chavez Jr gets a bad rep on here.

 

I wasn't part of that. Link?

 

It was a strange one.

Kind of a 'you had to be there' sort of thing, but it was excellent at the time.

 

Any chance of a summary?:think

 

I just read it and basically they were watching Indonesian TV and adverts with hot women for a long time. Then the fight was quite good.

 

You literally ignored all of the best parts.

Anyway, you had to be watching it to actually get the full glory of it. Not that any of you are big enough fans of the sport to watch Indonesia's biggest ever fight.

 

My personal highlight was Chris John having a recording of Michael Buffer played after he had been announced.

 

Thanks mate:good

I just looked at it as a routine defence for John, and never bothered to watch it. Im definitely doing to have to check it out tonight.

 

Guilty as charged. As I was reading the RBR I made a half-hearted attempt to find a video of the full fight. Maybe I'll watch it after I eat. I hope that the coverage is better than for Márquez vs John.

 

Rodel Mayol is small, dirty, and massively inconsistent, but he is still a very underrated fighter and his win over Edgar Sosa (TKO2) is one of best in recent years.

 

One of the best? As in, the best? Over any weight?

***** you be trippin'. Sosa ain't that good.

 

At Light Flyweight, it's up their with the best of them.

Your the Lower weight buff though, tell me which wins were better (I'm not questioning your knowledge, I'd just genuinely like to know which wins are valued higher, out of interest :good)

 

Sorry man, I misinterpreted what you said.

I dunno, how recent are we talking here?

 

I didn't exactly make my point clear :yep

Maybe since 2008/2009?
