Tell me about Salvador Sanchez

I don't see the Cowdell and Ford fights as any evidence that he "fought to the level of his opposition." That's just something we see parroted here all the time, so many take it as gospel and continue the idea because they think they're supposed to. I really think those were close fights because of stylistic difficulties; those guys fought cagey, countering type fights, just the thing to cause a natural counterpuncher like Sanchez problems. If you came to him you were meat on a stick. There was no way to beat him like that. Back off a bit, jab, flurry, stay with him and use angles and you had a chance.

 

Exactly why it wasn't a serious comment.

 

Apologies man, I didn't mean to come off as a dick or anything. Though I often do.

 

I got it HOI :good

And Sal', you never come across as a dick.

 

Age 4 age the greatest boxer ever I think.

 

Nope, never. We've actually spoken on here a little bit Sal, even the bit about Phoenix and all that prior to most recently - And laughed at the very idea I was implying sarcastically to Flea in that post. Sanchez is an all-time favorite of mine. You kinda dissapeared for a while up until very recently though, good to see you more active. :good
