View Full Version : ESPN PPV - Calvin Brock vs Jameel McCline COVERAGE
TyrantT316 04-23-2005, 09:54 PM CALVIN BROCK impresses and shows heart in a UD
---------------------------
That first round kind of had me on the edge of my seat...these guys are throwing with intention...no Gatti/Ward of course...but better than I expected...Jameel is fighting confidently which is a surprise and so is Brock...no fear
TyrantT316 04-23-2005, 09:57 PM Brock impressed in the second round landing combinations and crisp shots...a heavyweight who throws with intention, uses his feet, and throws combinations...hmmm...lets just see his chin
Kid Achilles 04-23-2005, 10:00 PM Keep up the coverage! I appreciate it!

Tha Greatest 04-23-2005, 10:06 PM it is a good fight except round 4 was boring
TyrantT316 04-23-2005, 10:06 PM round 4 was close and could have gone either way...Brock should do more on the inside...he holds his own decent from the outside...but should try more inside...though McCline puts ALL of his weight on Brock...

TyrantT316 04-23-2005, 10:10 PM McCline falling and using his weight to clinch all over Brock...kind of put Brock in a headlock there...
the ref stops the action to warn McCline about the holding...Brock wins the 5th round in my book...the bell rings...Brock kind of puts his glove out to tap McCline and McCline takes it the wrong way and pushes Brock...Brock doesn't respond...

Tha Greatest 04-23-2005, 10:13 PM Is Jameel the next John Ruiz?
TyrantT316 04-23-2005, 10:14 PM with Brock...I love seeing a HW throw combos
Brock doing well in the 6th...McCline puttitng ALLLLLLLLLL of his weight on Brock...but Brock is hanging in there and throwing combinations from the inside...I think Brock can beat McCline inside and out...
he is having a hard time looking spectacular because McCline is leaning everything on him, but Brock is doing well for the size difference
Tha Greatest 04-23-2005, 10:14 PM Damn, Angelo Dundee looks different..

Brock has heart and courage...he is showing more than any of the recent HW hopefuls in my opinion
TyrantT316 04-23-2005, 10:18 PM Teddy calls is 10-9 because Brock came back
Tha Greatest 04-23-2005, 10:18 PM WHAT A FIGHT!!!!!!

BROCK GETS UP AND HURT JAMEEL!
I give it a 10-9 for Jameel not 8

TyrantT316 04-23-2005, 10:21 PM Brock controls the 8th inside and out...mostly from the inside
Brock is a fighter who's stock will most likely go up no matter what happens in this fight...
but I have Brock winning
TyrantT316 04-23-2005, 10:23 PM 9th round...McCline almost down again...hurt...Brock is pressuring him hard

Tha Greatest 04-23-2005, 10:30 PM I wish the fight would go 12 rounds to see what happend!
TyrantT316 04-23-2005, 10:30 PM trade at the last 10sec..McCline hurts Brock in the alst 5 sec
enadeus 04-23-2005, 10:31 PM Damn I wish I could watch this, sounds like an awesome fight, heavyweight boxing is back. Thank god for espn.
TyrantT316 04-23-2005, 10:32 PM Brock should win the fight...pretty close...but Brocks should win...
this is the type of fight we need to see when assessing a prospect like Brock and I think he showed a lot...
heart, determination, his chin held up a bit, when he went down in the 7 he came back strong to nearly send McCline down, and he is a HW who throws combos throughout the fight...
Tha Greatest 04-23-2005, 10:32 PM What a great performance by Brock
AintGottaClue 04-23-2005, 10:32 PM damn my modem is gettign awfully hot and theres a funny smell to it....

sounds liek brock is what guinn was suppose to be
TyrantT316 04-23-2005, 10:33 PM BROCK WINS BY A COUPLE-FEW POINTS - UD
he got off the floor to win as Atlas said...
and he also made a point that old timers say that is the mark of a true potential top fighter...to be tested, go down, get up, go strong, and win...
Tha Greatest 04-23-2005, 10:33 PM I like McClines additude
I would like to see Brock-Byrd
Tha Greatest 04-23-2005, 10:35 PM I think Vitali would take him out obviously....cuz of his BIG height and weight advantage
IMO when Vitali fights people its like a light heavyweight fighting a bantamweight...
but Brock P4P is better...
AintGottaClue 04-23-2005, 10:36 PM what fights next mosley?
Tha Greatest 04-23-2005, 10:37 PM The commentator is talkin to Teddy Atlas
and a cut man just walks in front of the camera
and the commentator pushes him off and says "excuse me we're on television :mad: "
Kid Achilles 04-23-2005, 10:37 PM What did I say? A short clip of sparring means NOTHING. Congratulations Brock!
Tha Greatest 04-23-2005, 10:37 PM what fights next mosley?
ya sugar shane is next
vB Martin 04-23-2005, 10:37 PM I can't help but feel bad for Jamile. He's a genuinely nice guy, but he lacks real confidence in himself. I worry after his comments about being nothing without boxing.
Brock put on a great performance. I can't wait to see him in there again.
I just hope McCline is ok after this. He strikes me as someone prone to depression.

but Brock P4P is better...
interesting thing is...Brock may not have been able to show his entire arsenal is because McCline was leaning everything on him...but Brock stayed in there to the end and was still throwing hard shots....combinations nontheless
Vitali keeps his distance more and is a lot more accurate...so that would be tough for Brock....we would need to see more from Brock
enadeus 04-23-2005, 10:39 PM I think Brock is the future of the heavyweight division.
ye i can c calvin winnning a championship in the future
Bozo_no no 04-23-2005, 10:42 PM I had it 7 rounds to 3 for Brock.
I agree with Teddy about the 7th being only 10-9 for McCline.
I think Brock fought well, but made the mistake of trying to push back / move McCline around too much in the clinches. I think that cut into his wind, and as a result, he couldn't throw as many shots as he could have otherwise.
Brock is a good fighter, but needs to be better conditioned should he want to take the next step up.

AintGottaClue 04-23-2005, 10:43 PM once klitschko leaves i have a feeling its gonan be peter and brock even though i think sam is **** he has 1 punch KO....
Tha Greatest 04-23-2005, 10:43 PM I think Brock is the future of the heavyweight division.
Brock and Peter...
vB Martin 04-23-2005, 10:46 PM once klitschko leaves i have a feeling its gonan be peter and brock even though i think sam is **** he has 1 punch KO....
I thought that about Peter, too, until I saw him KO Jeremey Williams. Yes we can all agree that Jeremy Williams is a **** fighter, but Williams had ducked out and was beside Peter. Peter had to throw that punch all the way across his body, which requires speed and, more import, great awareness of his environment.
...Brock aint nothing special and Peter is one dimensional. Neither one is gonna dominate anything.
woodybox2004 04-23-2005, 11:25 PM yeah i wanna see sam peter vs any of the top 5
Kid Achilles 04-23-2005, 11:30 PM Samuel Peter is going to go great things for boxing. You can knock him now, but the guy is going to be the Marciano of his times. Sure he's limited, but he has so many other things going for him. The skill will develop some with time. He has many favorable attributes going for him that other heavyweights would kill for.
vB Martin 04-23-2005, 11:37 PM ...but the guy is going to be the Marciano of his times...
That may be going a little too far. There's definitely potential for some exciting fights, but I don't see Peter as an all-time great.

Yeah.....he is a decent fighter man. The only thing is, he is extremely 1 dimmensional. He can take a punch, and definitely shell one out. If he were to face a fighter as athletic and skilled as Wlad or his brother, he would get knocked out. He is far too slow and has no defense to his credit. He likes to block punches with his shoulders, but I dont think that would be enough to win a fight with either of the klitchkos. The chances of him actually catching a fighter (decent one) with a punch is minimal at best.
If he fought the Wladimir that beat Castillo tonight, he would get beaten bloody and stopped just like Wlad stopped Ray Mercer. Peter does throw combinations, but I dont think they are accurate and fast enough to punish someone this skilled. He looked great against Jeremy Williams, but Jeremy is a extremely mediocre fighter. He would have to really weather a storm against the better heavyweights in order to be labeled "a Marciano of his times".
Not to take away from him Achilles.....I know you like him as a fighter, and I do think he will make a name for himself (already has), but will run into a wall if he fights a highly skilled opponent.
Kid Achilles 04-23-2005, 11:45 PM We'll see. I am a huge Marciano fan myself but when he was where Sam is in his career now very few people saw him as a potential all time great either. It remains to be seen if Peter really has the heart, grit, and balls to stand up to the punishment he will be absorbing with his style, but physically he's all there. He just needs to trim down a little; he's a bit soft.
I know it's an out there kind of statement, perhaps fueled by the barren nature of the current heavyweight scene, but I really do have a gut feeling that Sam is going to dominate this division.

If he lands one of his haymakers on any fighter, they are finished. He is the hardest puncher in the heavyweight division, Bar none.
woodybox2004 04-24-2005, 01:14 AM i can't wait to see this one
Neuraxis 04-24-2005, 01:47 AM McCline looked the worst that I have ever seen him, and the Boxing Banker really surprised me. He looked much better than he has in the past. Getting up from the KD and dominating the rest of the round also really impressed me.
