"The Upcoming Fights You Can't Miss" List

Pavlik, devestating? he's fought nothing but truck drivers, let's see him KO a top 50 fighter before "devestating" is used

He has fought good enough opposition to be ranked #6 by the WBA at middleweight and #11 by the WBC and *********. And Pavlick is natural middleweight, Verno Phillips is coming up from 154 to fight Quartey at middleweight.

how the hell can you respect a man who hugs his way to victory (hugging is against the rules you know).

ooh and by the way golota beat ruiz and was robbed.

Bull****, Ruiz won 10/12 rounds and Golota went crying to his locker room to be breat fed by his trainer. Clinching is legal otherwise he'd have been DQ'd many times and every fighter clinches. Don't hate because the other fighters out there couldn't cope with his tactics. Holyfield is a headbutting whore and I don't hear you complaining!

Hey Pretender, I am starting to like you...

I'm gonna give u some good karma!

[The Pretender]

I swear some people got messed up logic. I mean why else do you think Tyson bit off Evander's ear?

I'm sure that he could KO Phillips too, the guy shows promise, I've just kinda learned from the whole Michael Grant nonsense to never judge a fighter's chin, heart, power, etc, until they fight somebody that'll be competitive, Pavlik still won't show his true colors vs. Phillips because Verno has no chance in that fight

he cried cause he got robbed, if you score it 10/12 you must have been very drunk.

holding is ilegal, i know cause i box active, and no i dont hug my opponents. and he should have been DQ many many times.its not legal just because the ref does`nt do his job.

Its true that holy fought dirty, the reason im not bitching about it is because where talking about ruiz and not holyfield.

And that's why Ruiz a 2 time world champ and you're not a champ. Ruiz knew how to use tactics in the ring and defeat good fighters like Rahman, Holyfield, Oquendo, etc. If you think clinching is bad then you are screwed when you face a bigger fighter who tires you out by leaning on you.

[leff]

jizzez you probably think of hitting the ball is tactic and not cheating.

there is 2 reasons i dont hug 1 its cheating and i risk beeing DQ
2 because i know how to fight on the inside.

sure hugging can be good just as elbows, headbutts, lowblows, kidney blows etc, but its called cheating, not clever tactic.

[The Pretender]

How you gonna compare clinches to headbutts and lowblows. Not even in the same category. EVERY fighter clinches so lets DQ them all!

As far as the "fights you can't miss" thing goes, I think every boxing fan hates to miss ANY fight (I'm ashamed to say I ditched a good friend's college graduation party to catch the last Hopkins fight, and was pissed that I had to celebrate my brother's engagement on the night of the Cotto-Corley fight).

But "fights you can't miss"? I think only the absolute superstar fights fall into this category, so I would say:

Trinidad v Wright
Gatti v Mayweather
Tszyu v Hatton (???)

I definitely want to see every other fight, but these are the three that I would sell out my friends and family to watch.
