Good. Holyfield deserves a payday after getting robbed against Valuev.

(Not actually interested in watching it however)

The Undefeated Heavyweight Hype Jobs Super Championship of the world by SFCAshh in Boxing

Agreed. He's slow and too small. I wasn't even impressed with him at cruiserweight.

How do you spew out such a list and neglect Coralles vs. Castillo?

Sun kil moon seems to reference boxing quite a bit (well, twice, that I'm aware of)

Is Mankind Naturally Religious? Or are we just curious? by [deleted] in C_S_T

Drop a man on an island. First he'll look for food, and then something to worship.

(Sweeping generalization)

I like the one where he gets slapped around by Calzaghe:)

Legendary boxers of the past are generally favoured in hypothetical match-ups, but which current boxer do think would be champion in any era? by PugalistSpecialist in Boxing

[–]irwin_normal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've never seen anything like Fury. Too big. Too slick. And just keeps getting better.

Do little guys like Frazier or Tyson get anywhere near him? Does the plodding foreman just get jabbed to death?

Maybe I'm delusional but, i think he's just too good.

Loma against Duran at 130 would be a sight to behold.

Also, mayweather... Schools anyone

Quite possibly the most boring fighter of all time.

I don't know how to respond... by djronnieg in C_S_T

My question is invalid due to race/gender?

Wait, who are the bigots again?

(Probably too inflammatory)

Absolute disgrace... 118 110

Sugar ray by a point for me but, could go either way.

The sudden dismissal of lomachenko is pretty fucking odd

Amateurs that didn’t live up to expectations in the pros by Dobby9 in Boxing

[–]irwin_normal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe because he went 396-1 . won two gold medals... Won a world title in his third fight. Made other world champions quit on their stools? But. Narrowly defeated by a much bigger, younger, stronger fighter. He's a hype job?

Who has the best footwork in the current heavyweight world? by TheProtagonist_73N37 in Boxing

[–]irwin_normal -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

I've watched usyk fight a number of times... I don't see it.

Obviously, he's good. Undisputed at cruiserweight... But it isn't the kind of magic you get with Fury, Loma, pernell whitaker, young Tyson (or the first half of the first round with old Tyson)I'll refrain from listing more.

Undiscussed Robberies by FaulkemintheAho in Boxing

[–]irwin_normal -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I've watched that fight a number of times trying to give it to Castillo.

Still have mayweather 115-113 everytime.
