David Price for me, but I have to admit my knowledge of the eastern European up and comers is very limited. I'll try and catch a few of Pulev's fights, considering everyone seems to rate him quite highly.
I personally thought he won the last 2 fights.
I see this fourth fight as a little pointless and a little sad, age will be a major factor, JMM has given his last big performance IMO. It will be a damn shame if JMM gets KO'ed and the record bookings read as 3-0(1KO) with 1 draw, that really doesn't do JMM any justice at all!
Arum is cruel, He knows Doanire is having problems w his hands, so he matches him againts a fighter who enjoys being hit. Arce might pull another WV2, were He brakes his opponents hands and once they have no offensive impact, KO them.
Arce's game might work this time.
Cracking tactic...Let the other guy smash his hands to bits on my face, THEN I'll KO him. :rofl:
I voted defense.
He not only knew how to move to defend but he also knew the correct time to grab and spoil, he also knew when to shell up and because of these 3 attributes it was rare that you landed a clean shot on him.
When people think of Ali they think of his flashy punches, his speed, his footwork and his mouth, but the guy could defend as well.
every event made by Sauerland Promotions, their fighters never lose. When u are a Sauerland fighter and u are getting ur ass whooped for 12 rounds it will be a SD for you. Always the same pattern.
This really. German are pretty bad in general though.
Why are people talking about this? The forum is full of crap about a rapper and a part-time boxer having a lovers tiff, who cares? Shouldn't you all just run to a celebrity gossip magazine for your fix on stories like this?
Lets get back to boxing?
There was a video post on here a few weeks ago of JMM sparring. He knocked his sparring partner down the the exact same punch that he KO'ed Pac with. He clearly knew what he needed to do.
Pac won 1-2 and 5(with a KD)
JMM won 3(with a KD) and 4
anybody who has it different did not watch the fight plain and simple
Exactly how I had it,
Pac 10-9 for rds 1 & 2, and 10-8 for rd 5.
JMM 10-8 for rd 3 and 10-9 for rd 4.

The last one is the best. They were getting so excited about 10 secs before it happened and then suddenly...shock!!
So this is the way we're going now is it? Every time someone gets KO'ed we shout for testing and act as if it's impossible for one professional boxer to KO another. This is boxing, fighters get KO'ed.
No. If you throw a punch then you intend to hit someone with it, if you hit them then you did what you intended.
It would be lucky if you tripped over your shoe lace and KOed someone by falling into them.
I'd take the money Tyson, you might be able to buy a suit that actually fits then. He looks like a kid wearing his dad's suit for the first time. If you want to look sharp and you have that kind of money then don't buy a cheap suit.
Oh, and Price KOs Fury 10 times out of 10. Different league.
I voted no. I just can't say he is an ATG when he lost to his 2 best opponents, one by quitting, and he ahs no wins against a top 150 HWT. Now his KO percentage is amazing and he has dominated his competition (as he should since its so putrid).
It all comes down to how you rate who he fought.
I have always agreed that to be great you have to beat a great, which is why the HW's of old were so good. Lots of greats in the same era, with everyone beating each other.
If Carl Froch doesn't satisfy you I really don't know what you want from a World Champion? He is a shining example of how a champion should behave and fight. The guy is a fearless warrior.
Rocky Balboa is fiction, fights without defence and in real life would have been brain damaged. Terrible movie.

He was brain damaged at the end of Rocky 4 and all through Rocky 5. They completely forgot about that for Rocky 6 though.....
No. Do you ask that because of both being from the UK? Because drug testing over here is no better than in the US.
In the UK both fighters are tested after EVERY championship fight, from world titles down to area champs. I'm not sure if its the same in the US? The random testing is a bit **** in the UK though, you'll be lucky if you get picked out once every 3 years for a random test in the UK.
Now they just need surgery to put some padding between that pea brain and massive cranium so his tiny brain doesn't rattle around and send him to spaz town every time he eats a solid punch.
