Xenforo Cloud has scheduled an upgrade to XenForo version 2.2.16. This will take place on or shortly after the following date and time: Jul 05, 2024 at 05:00 PM (PT)
There shouldn't be any downtime, as it's just a maintenance release. More info here
Saying Le Banner hit harder than Tyson, and especially Shavers and Foreman is a pretty ridiculous thing to say, i think. I don't know if he even qualifies as a huge puncher let alone an all time great puncher. All those guys mentioned would have put an old, tiny Nokweed to sleep with even a...
Has anyone seen this one? I kinda get the feeling that it was made by some virtue signaling c*** who heard that kids in some country far, far away were being kicked, punched, kneed and elbowed in the head while the adults cheered and gambled.. and decided to make a documentary about it without...
Saenchai would clearly be the correct answer imo. Highly skilled, a great athlete and just a complete unique freak of nature, just like Loma.
Of course he doesn't fight like Loma, but if the question is, 'who fights very similarly to Loma'? Then the answer would obviously be no-one. That would...
This was a high profile event in boxing. Well it was, until one of the fighters in the main event pulled out and Holzken stepped in on just 4-5 days notice. That's unfortunately when everyone in the boxing world lost interest in this. And that's probably why you didn't hear about it, because...
I asked a while back on another forum, about info on him and his MT career (pre boxing). Unfortunately it didn't get many replies, just 2 actually. The most disappointing thing though, was being told that as he wasn't a Onesongchai fighter it may be unlikely that much fight footage of him even...
Olympic Champion Pete Rademacher http://boxrec.com/en/boxer/20110 fought none other than Heavyweight World Champion Floyd Patterson in his debut in 1957 in a fight scheduled for 15 rounds. He is one of only two boxers in history to have fought for a World Title in his debut (as far as i know)...
That's probably a pretty damn fair assessment. The only thing that i would add is that people really need to take into account that this was Conor's boxing debut, and the debut part really fucking matters.
There is no complete replication of a 12 round pro boxing fight. And the gulf in skill...
I guess that the two of us had completely different expectations of what was going to play out, and i guess that neither of us got anything close to what we expected in the end.
I was certain about several things before the fight and ended up being wrong on most of them. But one of the things...
Yes, i know that's not an official scorecard.
I disagree completely with the judges who only gave Conor 1 round. I thought that he won at the very least 2, and personally gave him 4 rounds, although no arguement if someone just gave him 2.
Me saying that Floyd should be ashamed may be a bit...
I had the same scorecard. Most it seems only gave Conor 2 or 3 rounds though.
As for what it means in the MMA vs Boxing debate. Well, most people on either side were just straight up wrong about how the fight would go. No KO within 4 rounds for Conor obviously, but no complete and utter...
Damn, i completely forgot about that Haymon deal. He was incredibly outspoken about it too, and then went and signed Haymon.
Also, don't forget about all he's said about peds/ped users in boxing before he went on to work with Memo fucking Heredia.
And you are very right about that last...
I'm a boxing fan much more so than an mma fan. But fuck me, Paulie has been a complete embarrassment throughout this whole thing.
How the hell can he be one of the commentators on Saturday after all of this? It's absolutely ridiculous!
It's also incredibly stupid. I mean... he was a decent...
Pedro.. as i don't think Reyes is legit. Don't get me wrong, he'll knock some mofo's out for sure. But i just don't think the guy will be getting all that close to the top, but we'll see.
Agreed OP. I think Conor is gassing at around, if not before the half way point. Floyd is obviously not a big puncher, but he isn't pillow fisted either. And he will tag Conor regularly, both to the body and head. And with Conor swinging at air with virtually every shot he'll throw. Yeah, he's...
