    How good was Dariusz Michalczewski?

    He was ok. He never fought outside of Germany and was pretty protective. His best win was probably Virgil Hill. He wasn't someone that needed to be ducked. Roy ducked a fight in Germany. After Seoul, Roy didn't want to fight a foreign fighter in his backyard. I would put him below a lot of...

    Weight class below heavyweight and above cruiserweight

    If you had a weight class of 210 and up, you would still have the bigger guys moving up for big fights and smaller HW would have somewhere to move down to to chase a fight.

    Jeff Mayweather knows who Floyd is gonna fight

    Darius may have been the lineal champ but Roy was the man. He was the champ and everyone knew it. Darius was a protected fighter who never fought outside of Germany. Roy would have fought him in the US and that was well known at the time. This wasn't a case of him not fighting the other best...

    Jeff Mayweather knows who Floyd is gonna fight

    Pacquiao's legacy is not based on being undefeated. It is as much based on how he fights, his personality, his evolution from a one dimensional fighter with a big left hand to one of the best in the world. Not to mention his epic fights with morales and marquez. Floyd's is primarily based on...

    Pacquiao vs Khan for May 30th is plan B

    Khan vs Pacquaio at wembly would make a shit ton of money. Not pac/may money but good money. British fans will fill that place and Khan always does good numbers on sky or whatever. I think it will be a good fight, both are quick and busy. Khan is dropable and they trained together so there is...

    3600 posts in this thread alone. I think the fight is still pretty relevant.

    Sadly, you are probably right.

    Cotto Canelo Canceled

    Only if Cotto wins. Then I will laugh my ass off. Otherwise, and more likely, we get a boring fight in place of two fights we would have liked to see.

    No more ducking. It's time for Pacquiao/Mayweather

    Manny wants to go back to 140 and canelo is a big middle weight. There is to much of a weight difference. There are a lot of good 140 fighters out there, provided Al Haymon will let them fight Manny.

    No more ducking. It's time for Pacquiao/Mayweather

    If pac and may both sign and the networks screw it up, at least they both tried. Business is business and sometimes things don't work out. Neither HBO or showtime are fighters concerned about their legacy. Their only question is "can we make money on this '

    Go 'hawks. That is all.

    No more ducking. It's time for Pacquiao/Mayweather

    Fine. If Mayweather makes Pac look stupid then at least it happened. I personally think Mayweather would have looked better had he fought pacquiao, without the steroid claim, and lost then he will if the fight never happens and he retired with a 0. Hell if the fight had happened in 2010 we...

    Roach admits that Pac was ducking FLoyd:

    http://sports.yahoo.com/news/pacquiao-wins-round-bruising-philippine-tax-fight-075759007--box.html "[pacquiao] has insisted he paid the 2008 and 2009 taxes in the United States, so did not need to do so in the Philippines because the two countries have an agreement allowing their citizens to...

    Roach admits that Pac was ducking FLoyd:

    Pacqiuao doesn't have tax problems in the sense you mean. It isn't that he is broke and can't pay. The Filipino government want to he paid taxes on money Pacqiuao claims was already taxed by the US. Basically, the argument is whether or not paying the Philippines would be considered double...

    Will Boxing Ever Work on Public TV

    If big fights were on prime time like they used to be, boxing would be bigger than it is. I am a boxing fan but I am not pay 70 bucks to see fights. I would watch every decent card on network tv though.

    Quillin does a Stevenson , openly ducks Golovkin.

    In his prime Winky gave everyone problems. In fact, he fighting style could be summed up with "he was a problem to fight".

    Quillin does a Stevenson , openly ducks Golovkin.

    As much as I liked winky, he didn't smash anyone. He was a defensive specialist with a good jab and serviceable right hand.
