I know. That **** is blocking everything. Plus why the **** would anyone put a youtube vid in their sig in the first place?
Charley Burley. No one thing. I think that his being ducked by Zivic, Robinson, LaMotta, Armstrong etc. etc., was the thing that first invoked my interest. There is only a tiny drop of film, the second fight with Oakland Billy Smith. Smith is a LHW contender, Burley is a WW and respected banger Smith fights most of that fight on the back foot. What a fighter and what a man.
Current fighter- Sam Peter, I loved when he took Jeremy Williams head off with a huge left hook, probably the best punch I ever seen landed, while watching a live fight. All time- Tyson, I liked Tyson because he always said what he felt, no matter how crazy it may be, he is the most enertaining fighter of my generation.
Shane Mosley - everything about him - from his manners to his actually fights. He's by far my favorite Boxer.
atsch you come on here and make a thread about why dont americans give british world champions credit,you ever ask yourself why you dont give the best british boxer no credit?
Hey thx for getting rid of it bro..... If you have time check out the topic [url]http://www.eastsideboxing.com/forum/showthread.php?t=49971[/url]
john duddy he's one of my own,same gym although he was a good bit older than me,same kind of unbringing and then when he started swinging that left wand of his in his first pro fight i was hooked,i never thought he'd take off in the way he did.
I have three favorite fighters. Calzaghe: In the Mitchell fight, he got up off the canvas and seconds later floor his opponent, then stop him in the same round! And also, he gave us the most brilliant display of boxing I have ever see, in his fight with Jeff Lacy! Pavlik: his fight with Edison Miranda, his courage in continuing to come forward against a fearsome puncher, and the way he stopped Miranda, who had never been down before. And his getting up from the canvas and coming back to KO the undefeated universally recognized middleweight champion, Jermain Taylor! Wladimir: The way he came back when everyone said he was finished after the loss to Lamon Brewster, winning eight straight (four against undefeated opponents!) and winning two world heavyweight titles:good
Floyd Mayweather- the way he beat corrales Roy Jones- More of the hype and the Montell Griffith II beating and the post fight interview. Shane- From his days at 135 But Mike Tyson got me watching boxing along with punchout
I became a fan of Roberto Duran when I saw him against De Jesus in their third fight. For current fighters, I became a fan of Miguel Cotto when I saw him destroy Carlos Quintana (a fight I thought Quintana would win by decision).
