Against the ropes has got to be the worst.
I love boxing films......the rockys take some beating for the fun factor.
But all the ones mentioned above were good films.
Would love to see Denzel do a Don King film.
Floyd will get flack, whoever he fights.
It makes me laugh, "he is ducking xxxxxxxx, he is scared of xxxxxxxxx".
Until he fights them, makes it look easy then, "he had no busines fighting him", "he was over rated" he should have fought xxxxxxxxx instead, but he is scared".
He would get no credit regardless of his opponent.
Look at it this way, He was fighting a man who had been touted to beat him or at least give him one of his toughest fights, yet not a lot of people even knew who he was...............Sounds like high risk low reward to me.
sounds like bull shyte to me, why would he not call the police himself after the incident.
not unbelievable that it could happen, average joe wouldnt stand much of a chance against any pro boxer.
This story just smells abit fishy.
If it is true, then well done amir.
I think this is a winnable fight for Groves if he keeps tight boxes clever, however you gotta vote for froch at this stage...Groves has been hirt quite badly in fights with lesser competition ( anderson and paul smith).......ok he ended up winning these fighrs in impressive fashion.
The form book would say that froch brings far to much intensity and smart pressure for groves to handle. But there is something about the way he fights, everytime he fights o wonder if this is the fight where his chin lets him down ( it will one day if he keeeps blocking punches with his face)......but then again every fight his granit chin allows him to walk through his opponents best shots and unload his own.
I think its going to take a smart boxer with great ring craft to beat froch.....ie ward again.
Groves is a little ro easy to drag into a war and there should only be one winner in a grinding slugfest.......froch.
I can see groves starting to build an early lead before getting dragged into a tradeoff where he gets stopped middle to late rounds.....BUT........if this is the fight where froch's chin doesnt hold up....the Groves has enough power to crack it.
SMH
This is a decent thread but it been ruined by some school boy shyte.
Not the best but definitely deserves a mention.
Nigel Benn vs Chris Eubank.
Not sure how big it was across the pond but in the UK it was huge.
Matthesse probably KOs Kahn......
This site makes me laugh though. Amir Kahn Is a Boxer, he fights people for a living....... Of course he thinks he can win..... Even if he doesn't, he will say he does.
Ask the same question to anyone at 140 you will get the same answer..... Yeah he's really good but I can beat him.
Sounds like quitter is wishing he was still relivent.
Jr Witter is not worth a squirt of Hatton piiss.
Good luck in your defence quitter dont think its gonna end well.
Considering Sergio is an average sized middleweight and a small super middle I don't see how it's a fair fight. Plus Roy is an ATG even with his third rate chin while Sergio is simply a very good fighter.
The question was for a prime RJJ. All this bollox you see on this site about Roy being chinny is fcuking mad. Roy is shot and can nolonger take a punch, but back in the day there were absolutely no question about his chin.
A prime Roy would destroy Martinez......... no contest. To big, to strong, to fast, to powerful.
Martinez best asset is his ability to get in cause damage and get out, all done with his superior footspeed, Roy would catch him on the way in with shots he can't see until Martinez goes to sleep.
I live in the I'LL and will watch anything that is available at a reasonable hour, i will only stay up for he US shows if its someone i have some interest in.
Any vids of Pac uppercutting himself? The one of fury is pizz funny.
I like fury, I think price beats him but who cares, he's big, finally in shape, and can punch. He is making pleanty of noise in the HW division and going after big fights, can't grumble at that.
Ok so it was pretty blatant the way he ducked Price, and in my opinion price would whoop him. But he is definatly one step ahead of Price in the way of competition.
Fury gets a lot of hate on here and its unwarranted, I agree that he is on his way to a KO loss when he fights one of the top dogs and its only a matter of time before he gets exposed, but look what's just happened to Mitchell.
Been done to death.
Hatton will never win a fantasy matchup on this forum,
Very close fight. New York cotto on points, MEN Hatton on points.
Great fight,
In before, Hatton was an overrated bum, or glorified club fighter.
No! the bout was a total mismatch but it was a nice holiday for the Brits who jumped over to have some fun in Vegas. Until the fight came then reality set in. A decent club fighter isn't going to do well against a world class boxer!
Then they tried it again!!!
Now again?? Same results. Ray.
Decent club fighter. Are you having a laugh.
How many club fighters become ring champions he was THE MAN at 10st when he faught Floyd.
Ricky Hatton out boxed the boxer, when he fought Malinagi. I love Hatton but he is definatly less boxer more brawler.
If Hatton can out box him, broner would embarrass him. Still they are seperaterd by 2 weight divisions between them.
That commentary is exactly the reason I can't watch boxing with my grandad... He is exactly the same, except with a " Stoke on Trent old miners" accent.
I make you right bud..I go to watch alot of the small events and get so pissed ff. you have all the local yobs bayin for blood and KOs but this sport is dangerous man and a lot of fights go on much longer than they should.
When Haye, Froch, and Kessler are the best you have to offer it's time call it a day and play girl games like soccer and call it something manly like "football" which is crap, because real football is NFL, not men running around in tiny shorts and bright, colorful shirts.
You mean instead of skin tight shorts and body armour. real men my arse.
Football is called football because the players use their feet.
NFL is a gay mans rugby.
I got B Hop winning a close boring fight with RJJ spending most of the fight against the ropes and BHop grabbing him whenever he come off them.
But would love to see the old RJJ come back and whoop his ass.
