didnt watch the video but the title sounds like something a casual fan would say
same thought I had, lol
Just needed some haymaker references and its complete
Gabriel Montoya trying to get hit for his site and trying to build up credibility for VADA, seems like he has some type of connection with VADA, he been talking about Drug Testing and Praising VADA for awhile
go to VADA Twitter and looking how many times they tweet something about Montoya or retweeted something that he posted on twitter: https://twitter.com/#!/Vada_Testing
...I don't know if he has some type of CONNECTION WITH VADA or like Conte maybe he is an ADVISER lol I don't know but it seems like he is working extra hard to make fans jump on the VADA Bandwagon
this is the issue entirely.
ATG, but a bit overrated.
He fought everyone tho, I give him props for that but what was his signature victory? A coked up and fat Vargas? Over the hill Chavez and Sweat Pea (who he arguably didnt beat)? Ike Quartey?
and he would not beat Mayweather today in his 147 prime.
Oscar maybe won 4 rounds against Floyd, that is being generous.
How they called that fight a SD, was amazing to me.
Even Kellerman criticized the decision right after.
pac was defeated in his last fight. the decision doesn't matter.
Pac and his team fully believed they would walk into the fight and blitz JMM and take him out. Pac had a shock in his face, I saw right in his eyes, I saw it in his body language, his demanor. Pac was a desprate fighter in that fight who was afraid to lose it looked like he was almost scared to death. He had doubts in his head.
Bradley will come intot his fight and bring those same doubts into Pacs head, but Bradley is not JMM . Bradley is a more skilled fighter who is faster and stronger. Pac is in a world of trouble.

If you knew anything about boxing and had followed any of Khan's early career, you'd know that this sentence is embarrassing for any fool that utters it.
Khan's career until he met Roach was falling apart. He'd been wobbled and dropped by some C-class fighters and bums. Prescott flattened him. He was a superb amateur but clueless in the pro game, and since moving to the Wildcard he has morphed from a knockout-waiting-to-happen (well, had happened) into a world class fighter. Roach should be applauded, lauded for Khan's progress.
These boards are filled with ignorance.
he chose the wrong trainer for his boxing abilities, Roach is the wrong guy for Khan.
the best athletes here do not play soccer
please dont kid yourself.
you dont need to be a great athlete to play soccer. Lionel Messi is 5'9" and 140 lbs and is the best in the world.
Im still miffed about this Khan good jab thing. If Khan had a good jab, he would have beaten Peterson (testosterone boost or not). He would not have any losses. If Khan had a jab and any sort of brain, I think he would already be in the p4p running.
Khan has a worse chance of beating Floyd than Pac. I also believe neither does, but at least Manny has some power in his punches. I dont believe any Roach trained fighter can beat Floyd.
Damm what does that say about this generation of boxing if the most recent great technical fights are fights from the 90s thanks for the info
I blame the mainstream media. they dont care for the sport at all except for Gatti/Ward type of fights, and Rocky slugfests. Technical fights are too boring for them, and so we dont see them as much as we should.
Defense is defense guys
And Duran is the perfect mix of offense and defense
no, no they are not.
Using speed and reflexes to not get hit is not the same as positioning your body and arms to avoid contact.
What Roy did is just athleticism. When his athleticism left him, he started getting KTFO. What BHop has is how he positions his body to avoid contact.
Floyd is a hybrid, but he is more positional sound than reliant on athleticism.
and Sweat Pea had fundamental and positional defense down. I dont know where this he relied on his athleticism stuff comes from.
7th thread on this
Pretty much. And he was righ sayin Bute had to prove himself instead of just waiting in the wings and getting the winner of the Super 6.
who is that in your avatar?
please stop slandering USADA. Its pathetic.:lol1:
and the fact that major prize fights have moved towards asking for testing, and they havent says a lot.
The ginger isn't southpaw, doesn't move his head, gets tired & doesn't have good defense. The Punisher brings the pressure, workrate & stamina to wear him down. He's also tried & true. The ginger hasn't been on the level that Punisher's been on, warrrrr Punisher!!
while this is true, Paul doesnt defend well and doesnt use his size advantage. I can see Canelo beating him down.
not in shape = not good athletes
the best American athletes who would have been heavyweights 20-30 years ago are college football tight ends and college basketball power forwards
Bute would not perform better against Andre Ward.
Open your eyes, Bute is not good enough. He has fought no one good, and only stayed in Montreal for a reason.
How the **** do you want to go toe to toe against Carl Froch ? You are not Floyd Mayweather for ****s sake. I really can't explain what was wrong with Bute. Absolutely horrible!!!!!
whats wrong with Bute is a lack of elite talent.
I am so glad his hype machine is over.
The Cotto that fought Margarito (first Time) was in a tremendous shape and mindset was solid, he could have game Floyd more problems than what he did recently
people forget that Arum did not want to put Cotto in the ring versus Floyd. They saw Cotto as potentially a huge star and did not want Floyd damping that. Arum had an interview where he said this years ago.
