    no such thing as a feather fister heavyweight. anyone that weights over 200lbs can bang.

    Estrada is a fat Light Heavyweight.
     
  6. Indeed.

    Cherrypicking should be encouraged.

    even the featherfisted heavy's would put enzo on a stretcher, he has no chin.
     
  9. I'm not saying he's got a good chin but when has he been knocked out by a nothing shot?

    Ola isn't exactly a noted puncher and sparked him out with a hayemaker. I think if basically any heavyweight did the same, puncher or otherwise, it would be goodnight Enzo. So what's the point...retirement is the correct option.

    Big puncher or not, that punch came from about row x, there was no technique.

    It would have sparked anybody.

    That said, you're right, he should be retiring.

    But isnt that the point Grant, his chin cant take a big shot and he cant see/avoid the big looping shots aka hes screwed! How could he cope with a fully fledged heavyweight shot or hows he gonna see a quicker lw punch?? He couldnt win whatever he chose so yes retirement and helping with young welsh fighters ought to bo the way to go

    glen mcrory had a go at heavy and was alright but just shown up.

    you oculd make the chris byrd/eddie chambers idea that if you are smaller you are quicker and if your equiped with better technique means you can see the punches coming. enzo isnt a technician and can only go in 1 direction. he is a tall pressure fighter. also if haye could do that to him. then you think that a decen theavy with enough wiegh tbehind his punch could time it.

    he leaves his head hanging especially on the inside

    That's kind of the point. Enzo has been dominating two fights, against Ola and Frenkel, and was hit with two huge punches out of nowhere. It's not exactly coincidence. He can't maintain performance, or has some type of concentration issue, or plainly can't see punches coming and when they do come he can't take them. Any which way...heavyweight isn't a good option.

    Dreadful thread as well to be advocating cherry picking, this guy is one of the worst posters I've seen in quite a while. He's like a more dangerous version of colinthfc.
     
  15. ...by the greatest heavyweight of that era. :good
