I'm still trying to get my hands on the Zuniga fight, seeing as how that was really Kelly's first big step up in opponents.
I read that it was a damned good fight.
Me too. Heard Kelly got viciously kd'ed but survived and won that fight. Everybody who saw that acclaimed it was very good.
Pavlik has a lot to offer and he has a pretty well rounded offensive arsenal. From what I've seen and read on him he's a very solid fighter who would be dangerous to any fighter in the middleweight division.
High risk/low reward though.
You are right on that one.
And I see why Wright turned down Pavlik fight.
Winky is looking for big fights now, something he well deserved.
I like Wlads left hook. Prolly one of the best left hooks a HW possesed. Its short, powerful and very fast. HE can also double and triple on it which is a beauty to watch.
I KNOW you did NOT just forget to add Corrales' counter left hook!?!?!?!?!
You custom title just reminded me Floyd got a great left hook. Its fast and short and also packs a decent power for somebody with a small frame like Floyd.
Because Shawers is considered the biggest puncher ever by most boxing experts...And damn for once these experts got it right. Dude ko'ed like first 52 of his opponents and most of these were pure ko's and tko's. These guys just went to deep, deep sleep. And if you did not notice or maybe you just dont know but Shavers put all of his body weight into that punch plus he started that right hand from his legs and he literally hit Holmes with all his body power and incredible velocity concetrated in that punch.
Just in case if you dont have any sense of humor, when I said that he could make a hole in an armor I was speaking figuratively.
My pick...Lennox Lewis for his fight against Tua.
Wlad and Witter are far behind. Witter for running from Zab in his first and only fight in the national spotlight.
Hmm since when boxing and not wanting to get hit by a huge puncher makes you soft. :confused:
When you fight scared. Mayweather doesnt want to get hit but hes not running away from you. In fact hes right in front of you the whole time...
Dude Lenny never fought scared. Watch the fight. Why do you think Tua stopped trying to KO lewis later in a fight. Cause he tasted enough of the jab followed by one of the best left hooks in history of Heavyweight boxing.
Respect to Lenny, He is the essence of a smart fighter with great tools.
Never thought TOS's strategy was to take him into the later rounds. TOS after that KD was trying to TKO/KO Wlad and was fighting aggressive. Not timidly like before the KD.
BULLLLSHIITTTTTT, TOS got his ass handed to him on the platter after that one KD. That was the only moment of the fight when he did not run and he was getting properfucked.
