Wait, what.. this is the first time I have heard this. Rules and safety is what keeps amateur boxing such a highly lucrative contact sport for the olympics. Since when did they "remove" RSC?! You do know RSC is Referee stops contest, you're talking about RSCO/s (where a ref stops the contest due to the point advantage mark) right? There are different types of RSC. As far as I am concerned RSC and RSCI are still there, and when did they express motivation for removing the headguards? :think Please do post a link with substance for me to read up on your claim.
Pacman don't fight at 140 anymore so if you are still thinking of him as the man there, it's time to move on. Feel free to put Bradley there, with his main competition coming from unified champion Alexander.
when i see how huck humiliated adam richards,No.9 in the US,that says it all same goes for danny green vs,roy jones....OMG
Steve Cunningham vacated his cw belt, no? Andre Dirrell does not hold a belt at SMW. How is Spinks ahead of Dzinziruk or Martinez?! Felix Sturm is still a pretty legit middleweight belt holder, and hopefully with his move to Freddie Roach, we will see the door for the Pavlik bout open up, if in fact Pavlik gets by Martinez.
Roy is old...if you think that Green's win meant anything you will believe anything. Huck won't fight out top 2 Cunningham or Flores
Cunningham holds a TKO victory over "champion" Marco Huck and is rated number 1 in the division. I consider Dirrell and Ward the best fighters at SMW, havent been totally proven yet but I feel it will be soon. I'd rate Martinez ahead of Spinks, but Spinks has been in there with stiffer competition then Dzinziruk. Maybe, maybe not. After getting robbed in vegas dont know if he'll ever step out of Germany again. I dont blame him of course.
Steve Cunningham lost his belt to a-guess who?european fighter-tomasz adamek. im certain sturm will outbox and beat pavlk. sturm is much more versatile and quicker Light Heavyweight - zsolt erdei was amateur WC and is the much better boxer than Chad Dawson
Huck lost by TKO to Cunningham dope. You mean a shot Roy Jones? Now you're taking credit for an Australian club fighter beating an shot legend with a rabbit shot? Wait, when you get an old legend, come talk to me.
Ward beat the ranked #1 SMW, so no further proof needed. Williams beat Martinez, albeit at 160, but there's not a lot to go on. Dzinziruk hasn't fought in almost a year and a half so he has to be excluded at the moment. There's nobody else to put in the argument.
A fight where Adamek needed 3 knockdowns to beat Cunningham by a close decision that could have went either way. Cunningham was outboxing him for the majority of the fight. But like it matters, Adamek isnt a cruiser anymore. That leaves Cunningham clearly ahead of the rest of the pack. You think Sturm was better then the Jermaine Taylor Pavlik fought? [/quote]
Considering he's not fought in almost a year and does not have a fight coming up, Tomasz Adamek who is right now a heavyweight (Cunningham is supposedly moving to heavyweght) could just aswell be rated as THE cw champion, as he literally fought for the belt a year ago, and Cunningham has fought only once since then. Fair enough, its your view. Martinez is surely ahead of Spinks, so is Dzinziruk. Who did Spinks beat at 154lbs, Latimore and Karmazin? He hasn't fought in a year, like Dzinziruk. But Dzinziruk has beaten guys like Santos and Julio. If anything, they're right around the same level, be fair. Sturm is no longer tied up with Universum as far as I know, and he's with Freddie, so obviously, hes looking to fight in the US, or it sure looks that way.
