Cortez sure was pretty far away from the action when the bell was about to sound. It appeared as though they were in the middle of an exchange as the bell sounded, that's the most critical time for a ref to step in.
I know Fighting Spirit. I saw parts of it (check YouTube) and to be honest I didn't like what I saw. Or should I say "heard". The voices were terrible, and this annoyed me to the point of not wanting to ever see it again.
Do you actually live in Tokyo, or it just part of the image?
Anyway, the manga is still running (for something like 18 years now, it's immense), published weekly in Shounen Magazine. I believe they started new episodes of the anime recently as well, though I'm not sure if it's some sort of special limited run or not. The manga is excellent (just about the only one I read regularly), if long-winded. Don't really have much of an interest in the anime, but from what I've seen it's solid.
A fictional film character gets more respect than Frazier in Philadelphia, sickening though it may be. He certainly came out on the losing end of their clash in virtually all aspects.
Staggered by a jab. Whatever talent he may have, that does not bode well for a career on the world level. Malignaggi's potential was limited by his brittle fists. There's no reason yet to believe that Khan isn't in the same category.
*Sturdy left hook
Khan, moments before, sent Prescott's head snapping back with a jab of his own. Get your facts straight.
Perhaps you need to rewatch the fight...
He's right that Fedor's boxing isn't remotely conventional, but given his speed and power it's fairly well adapted for MMA where the clinch and takedowns are constant threats.
Bit of a headcase, very confrontational and rarely listened to advice from anyone. At LHW he probably had good potential, the move to heavyweight was fairly ill-advised. As for his better fights, at HW the first fight with Holyfield, and the fight with Foreman (up until the end) were both strong performances.
Haye's power and speed at CW were just murderous, perhaps the hardest puncher in the history of the division. They more than overcame any shortcomings of his chin - similar to Hearns at WW.
Not only was Hearns/Duran not on there, it wasn't even in the honorable mentions. Horrible.
"That's it Tim, any time you fall forward the fight's over Tim."
Vargas sure does put on the weight. Honestly I find it hard to understand how so many fighters let themselves go to such an extent after retiring. I understand that weight control is hell, but I'd think the pride in maintaining oneself in good physical condition would remain.
If Augustus had fulfilled his potential, perhaps. Unfortunately he's past his prime and inconsistent in his preparation. Being as such, he's not at the championship level.
