Yes the Lame-mon Who?ster fans should be happy there fighter rushed the most notorius quiter in the game, the man is garbage
don't hate...just cuz you prolly put $$$ on imabum golota...you gotta give a little respect to lamon...he was the underdog and he destroyed golota in under half a round
if he is dead i'll kill him!
of course i knew all that about matty :rolleyes:
Matt is not dead.
I love Saad, one of my all-time faves...BUT, he isn't the best light heavyweight ever.
Charles, Foster, Moore, Spinks.....they were the best.
Saad was the most exciting lt. heavy ever....& my choice as the most exciting fighter ever, lb4lb.
Most of those losses came after he was shot....& with his style, he was kinda shot even while holding the belt. There are only so many grueling fights one can be in...
His title-winnig fight against Marvin Johnson, & his title defense against Yaqui Lopez are two of the memorable fights in history. But, did you all know these fights were rematches ? Rematches to fights that were every bit as, if not more, brutal than their sequels.
To even compare Saad to that club fighter Gatti is an insult. Muhammed was the man at 175 while Gatti never even sniffed being the man in any division he was at.
The single best action fighter who ever lived plain and simple.
great post jose! :D
lol, yeah winky is always around. i see james toney alot to, it was funny as hell to watch toney and wright go crazy when chico made that comeback against castillo. they were jumping up and down and screaming :D
awww...i wish i could have been there :(
not to sound like an asshole but i was'nt there :D you could see it on the tv if you looked closely, i guess im just really observant when it comes to the crowd cause i always spend the first 2 rounds of a fight calling out the names of all the stars and fighters that i see in the crowd, lol
i haven't even gotten to see it yet :( someone's sending me a copy of the fight though...and i got to meet diego 2 weeks ago so ha! :D
I wanna make a whacky prediction because I haven't heard it once in all the threads for this fight:
Gatti by majority decision!
Gatti gets outboxed for most of the fight, but knocks PBF down 2-3 times in the fight and wins a narrow decision (one judge will have it even).
keep dreaming sweetie :p
I think that Mayweather will go into this fight frustrated and jealous from Gatti's undeniable popularity. This is an opportunity for Mayweather to gain tremendous popularity and the only way that he can do that is to give the crowd a fight that they want to see. Mayweather talks consistently about how his fights are always exciting and I think that perhaps in this fight he may do what Byrd has done recently and abandon a little bit of the boxing in order to slug a little bit and garner some popularity and ensure future pay per views. This is the factor that made me bet on Gatti more than anything else. I am taking a big risk with my bet but somehow my intuition tells me that Mayweather is suffering from the very same affliction that ailed Byrd in his last few fights. This fight is not about boxing skill, its about respect and Gatti wins a fight about that in my oppinion.
i find this theory very interesting :)
does anyone know anything about matt right now? he wasn't at induction weekend (he always is) and some asshole told me he was dead :(
oh and matt was the greatest light heavyweight of all time!
Okay. Next year I won't have to be worried about being arrested....
