Boogie_Nights

Been a while since i posted so a big shout out to all the old timers who are still here or remember me. Apologies as i know this is the wrong section to post this but i figured more people will get to read this. Been hearing a lot about this website and it's the first time i actually decided to finally check it out since HBO's been dead now for a while, and i have an urge to watch some old school boxing. I know it works by invites, any member here who can help me out by chance? You can PM me if you want to be anonymous thanks!

i know im probably gonna get flamed for this but think about it Wlad would come first, you know as a warm up, and because of his shit chin Money clips him on the chin with a check left hook, it will look beautiful, even more devastating than Ricky's massacre. Saving the best for last, Vitali, being the tough customer that he is would come second. Im thinking Money will use all that savy and seasoning he got from sparring with chagaev to wear Vitali down and put him down even harder than Wladimir, just to make a statement. I dont think Vitali will have the balls to do what Baldomir did, and go the distance with lil Floyd. I say money fuks him up worse than he did Big Show. and he wont even need to request any blood tests because he's gonna spill plenty of their blood on fight night :boxing: keep in mind guys, money spars with heavyweights and tools them

seriously. i mean the man didnt even start and you already calling bs. after hearing lennox all these years im ready for anyone. i dont care if it's roach or leon spinks. if anything you guys should be happy lennox is leaving, i mean the guy was probably the worst commentator who ever worked for HBO, real talk. he said the most obvious shit, and was non existent. fuking ring card girls could call fights better than Lennox did. The guy was a great fighter, but awful commentator, ill be happy with whoever they replace him with.

you know what that means, what else is there to say bet your entire bank account on Pav

berto's 3rd fight in a row with a southpaw. i believe berto is gonna win, but does quintana have the stuff to make it a difficult night for berto, or is he gonna make opportunities for andre to take him out. i dont think berto is able to put the kind of hurt that cotto and williams were able to, but he can punch when he chooses to. how do you see it playing out

I gotta say, Pacman been on fire in his last three fights, take oscar out of there, and his last 2 wins are as legit as they get. Hatton and Cotto test you in more ways then one, neither could take the pounding from Manny. Ricky got it the worst. Now clottey, is known for his toughness and desire to mix it up. will manny overwhelm him with speed and take him out of there, or will clottey put up a valiant effort till the end?

The man said it

No im not talking about pathetic E-points with which you buy your gifts. Im talking about green paper with Washingtons on it. I've been looking at odds ever since this fight was a go, and it seems now they are about right. If you bet on Haye the pay off is good. Wladimir is not a big a favourite as he was for Rahman so there is also a little dough to be made there as well. Anyone putting their hard earned dollar on this one?

Looks interesting.... http://img.metro.co.uk/i/pix/2008/07/klitschkoXP_450x611.jpg

Im very much interested in this mismatch. The fight is only days away and there hasnt been any news. I know you guys think it will be a blow out, but it's a heavyweight championship fight. Where are the press conferences, quotes, interviews, photos? WTF?

Anyone got any info on who's fighting on the undercard?

In this day, this time, if thomas hearns was putting his undefeated record on the line against Ray Leonard next saturday would you say that Hearns is overated? If you never knew what would become of him? Seeing how popular it is to say fighters are overated nowadays, there's no doubt in my mind, that some posters would say Tommy was overatred Be honest, this is a superfight all over again, and it's a popular trend for fans we have today to criticise a fighter on any little ****ing thing, would you call Hearns overated with Pipino Cuevas on his record?

everyone knows about Teddy's craft, and point to some of his worst picks. what many people dont know is back in 2002 he picked tyson to ko lennox lewis in the first round true story

Sorry guys, teddy atlas picked margarito to beat cotto if they were to fight again you see the fucking problem here?

It's been done and proven before Tony should show Millie what true cojones look like, and of course Tony's wife will be down for a threesome leaving oscar peeking through a window that should get hoya's blood boiling, what you think?

it seems like Atlas secured yet another victory for the fighter he was picking to loose unbelieveable, how big of a factor was his jinx in the fight?

This was a great event tonight, i was very impressed with margarito for not giving up and just getting what was his. I think this fight made some people fans of tony, and it made them notice i see oscar taking the fight with margarito, if he truly wants to make good on his promise, he needs to fight the best welterweight in the world what you think?

Eddie Futch: Joe, im stopping this, you cant see Joe Frazier: Come on Ed, i can visualize him, let me go Futch: I cant let you go, you're hurt Frazier: Dont worry about it, ill make it Futch: Sit down Joe, no one will ever forget what you did here tonight Sometimes there's a different way out Doctor: Rock you wanna fight Rahman: Fuck off, my eye hurts Doctor: Fight's over for everything else there's master card :wave:

both are important ingridients however some are born with a strong chin, and some are not so lucky but those that are not so fortunate, work with what they have. they breed their killer insinct. they learn from early on, that they might go down, but they have to get up and put that damn pressure on otherswise they are cooked ducks having a solid chin can be overated at times. guys can be hit but are not as bothered, and just cruise through the fight. guys with weaker chin seem to wake up after a good shot, and work miracles. after they go down, they face reality and know the consequence of not getting up. but there are few that get up though...

there were many fighters accused of ducking opponents, who in your opinion was the biggest ducker of them all?

Anyone think the footage HBO replaying is funny? where they show Wlad knocking out poor Brock, and then putting in the quote from Lampley "This is what the heavyweights are soppoused to do" and then cutting to Thompson and he's throwing those slow pitty pat punches at some tomato can :lol1: they guy got no chance, ill be surprised if this fight is close. i dont think after the sultan fight, Wlad is gonna allow himself another decision.

One of my favourite fighters, a great puncher. He said that before his retirement he was scheduled to fight tyson, but the deal fell through because he got sick. what's your evaluation of tommy as a fighter?

Sometimes 2 unknown fighters who never became anything, square off against each other to produce some of the most unforgettable and thrilling moments in boxing. This was one of them.

No spoilers, but i dont agree with the first place, tell me what you think I like how Riddick Bowe did his thing

Evander Holyfield is arguably the greatest top ten or 15 heavyweight, he fought many wars, and beat some solid fighter vote if you think that the greatest fighter holyfield had beaten was mike tyson, and if it was the hilite win of his career

due to some idiots in other threads i wanted to come up with this thread. Please list me one great fighter evander holyfield beat

his upcoming fight with rahman should anwer a lot. both are after the same thing. question is despite the layoff, and his weight problems, can a very focused, in shape and active toney win a title belt at this age and stage? if he had a win over rahman, maybe another ranked contender, hell even someone like David Haye!!! then he would be ready to challenge we got klitschko, chagaev, peter as champions. Toney already fought peter and was robbed in the first fight. can toney do it?

there's a know it all boxing expert by the name of slicksouthpaw16 who thinks they were all time greats max baer who was a good fighter with one of the most devastating right hands has spent his whole career clowning and never achieving his full potential. slicksouthpaw thinks that because he knocked out max schmeling he's a great fighter. in that case hasim rahman is a great too because he knocked out lennox lewis walcott among his many losses, lost to a guy 11-15, you call that greatness?? he only beat a former light heavyweight ezzard charles who beat him twice. he officially lost to ouis, and was knocked out by marciano twice. does a good showing make you into a great fighter. he was a journeyman at best please vote

http://z.about.com/d/crime/1/0/m/S/king_d.jpg from that to this http://images.usatoday.com/news/_photos/2004/05/05/bush-king.jpg say what you will about the man, but he's straight up and down genius of this sport, the mastermind between some of the greatest fight cards and main events. if it wasnt for him i believe boxing would have suffered, that's right, not improved or been better, but SUFFERED my trainer once told me a brief story, he knew a guy that knew Larry Holmes, it goes something like this Larry and Don were in King's office, they were talking about the contract and the money issue of course came up. Larry being the bad ass that he was, told King "You know Don, i can have you killed for this" Don: "Yes, that's true Larry, but i can have you killed before you leave my office" that's the relationship between holmes and Don. The moral: dont fuck with the businessman who can close the deal by any means neccessary
