Yo brother this thread isn't about dissing others favourite fighters. I'm happy with the response i've got so far although i wish some of you would have said why you like a particular fighter.
If he can say Golota's a great fighter, I can say he's not.
After all.....who has the better case, he or I ?
Why do I like who I like ?
Trinidad - Love the way he fights. Love the way he throws his punches.....perfectly. Love how patient & accurate he is. Love the way he hurts a guy, & then begins to steadily take him out.
Corrales - The guy is so tall, yet throws the shortest power-shots you'll see. He's a guy who has serious limitations, but will always be in a fight because of those lethal bombs.
Hopkins- The craftiest S.O.B. I've seen in years. An ageless wonder who just knows how to win.
He knew he couldn't stand at long range & box with the southpaw Keith holmes.....so he got in close & disrupted Holmes rhythm, stole his heart, with his rough-ass style.
In his next fight, he uses the perfect plan to dismantle the sports' best offensive fighter (Trinidad). Doesn't waste a second in there....making every Tito miss get paid back.
Hopkins is a P-R-O.
No brother i don't think Golota is a great fighter too but in the eye's of a true fan he will be. Not many like my boy Winky but i will love and respect him all way through his career to the end like i have so far. I've been to most of his venues and met him several times. He isn't great to alot of people but he sure is to me.
Massive respect for writing in such a insightful way of why you like those fighters. I have massive respect and love for all of them. Winky and Trinidad will be a amazing fight to see for fans alike worldwide.
