Favorite Fights where the old man beats the young guy?

Fitz-Gardner

 

Foreman v Moorer
Moore v Durrell

 

I liked Hopkins fights with Pascal. Taking on an explosive athlete like that in your mid 40s is crazy.
Hearns vs Hill
Floyd vs Canelo and Maidana

 

He'd already beaten the crap out of Bruno and Seldon basically took a dive out of fear. Not very impressive...was it.

Anyone can see from his fights post-prison that he didn't fight the same as he did in the 80s. Prove me wrong.

 

Juan Manuel Marquez vs Juan Diaz I
James Toney vs Vassily Jirov
Michael Carbajal vs Jorge Arce
Brian Viloria vs Hernan Marquez
Daniel Zaragoza vs Wayne McCullough
Manuel Medina vs Scott Harisson I

 

Because I disagree with your parroted response .. Why was Seldon so scared if Tyson was the shell you claim ? Seldon had good size, conditioning, speed and power. He was a talented fighter .. he was active, on a nine fight win streak coming in , he had recently beaten Page, Tucker and Hipp .. why would he be so afraid of a shot Tyson ? The answer is he wasn't .. Tyson still was a unique , highly skilled and dangerous fighter and had the skills in abundance to exploit Seldon's weakness, his chin .. Tyson still had the explosive speed and power .. this was not the Tyson who lost to Williams or McBride .. Watch the second Bruno fight .. this Bruno just won the title , was more confident than ever and if you actually watch the fight Tyson beat him faster and more convincingly than their first fight .. the point here is not that Tyson was in his all time prime but still a highly skilled , very dangerous fighter and he was .. you're proven wrong.

 

I respectfully agree to disagree. Watch Tyson vs. Spinks, Berbick, Holmes, Williams. Then watch ANY of his post-prison fights. He wasn't the same.

But again, all respect and no offense intended. Just my opinion, I respect yours.

 

I really hate that you beat me to this one. Lol. Carbajal is a legend in Phoenix.

 

Not a favourite but one I saw today, Leo Gamez beating the **** out of Hideki Todaka in their first bout. Gamez was 37, assumed to be shot, Todaka was 27 and...erm...well...suffering from an eye problem going into the bout and a smashed jaw by the end of it...

 

Hopkins beating Cloud was impressive to me. I was ringside when Cloud fought Glen Johnson the year before and I can tell you that Cloud could straight up crack! I have been boxing since I was a kid and have sparred and seen countless fights but I can tell you that Cloud was no joke. Sure he wasn't the most seasoned guy but he was heavy handed and Hopk8ns straight up clowned him.
