... Dan: Larry Holmes without a doubt size and reach being the main factors. Even on his way down Larry gave Mike Tyson (in his prime) a little work before...
Hello everyone, I like Larry Holmes jab in this one. Holmes does not get credit for that great jab. He did not fight the tough guys Marciano did, but if styles...
I think Holmes controls the fight with his jab, as Marciano attemps in vain to get on the inside. If the fight isnt stopped on cuts (TKO9), it goes the...
I'm really surprised at the responses! I agree that I would put my $ on Holmes in this battle, but I really thought that most would take Marciano based on...
What do you guys think about the rise in popularity of "Mixed Martial Arts"? Could it mean the end of pure boxing as the favorite combat sport in the USA and...
IMO it wont end boxing, but it will probably surpass it in its popularity. It attracts the mainstream or casual fan who just want to see blood and violence....
There is no way boxing will leave the map. I like MMA, but I will never collect those fights. I will watch it when I can, but that is all. MMA needs 50 to 100...
Did anyone see the Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. vs Matt Vanda Fight from Mexico on Sat.? JC Jr. got PUNISHED! It was a close fight, but even the Mexican fight fans...
I believe Julio Jr. is a real contender, his Dad would not let him fight if he did not think he was legit. Hey Boxing Guru tell your DAD that the great...
In my HUMBLE opinion, Jr is a bit overrated. He is a solid fighter, better than the average 'son of a legend', but there seems to be something lacking....

Did you all watch the dissapointing performance by Team USA at the Olympics? Is it time we send our "Boxing Dream Team" to the olympics? What if we did that?...
Interesting...though I think the major problem this year was scoring. And our amateur team doesnt seem to be up to par with international athletes. Besides, as...
Surprised. I think I was with the majority who thought Oscar was just too big to lose to a good smaller fighter. As the adage goes, a good big man will beat a...
I also thought Oscar would win just though sheer size and natural body weight... I have NEVER been so wrong! I pictured Oscar towering over Pacman, but they...
Hello everybody, I just joined this website. I am posting this message in your group because I have recently launched an actors website both for professional...
I set up a Facebook profile where I can post my pictures, videos and events and I want to add you as a friend so you can see it. First, you need to join...
I think this is going to be a very exciting boxing match! And, I think Ricky Hatton has a great chance to win this one... if his skin holds up and doesn't get...
I agree with Dan. I have always liked this fight...been clamoring for it for awhile. I think Hatton does have a better chance at beating him than Oscar did....
Did you guys see the battle between Victor Ortiz and Maidana? Wow, what a battle! Is this a "career ender" for young Ortiz? Or a "Hard Lesson Learned"?......
Former champ Alexis Arguello was found dead of a gunshot wound to the chest. He was recently elected mayor of Managua, the capital of Nicaragua. Sad day for...
AWESOME fight. I dont know...I truly HOPE it is not a career ender for Ortiz, but he did sound like he didnt have it in him to continue his career further. But...
It is a sad time for boxing. Arguello was classy. an asset to the sport. As a great champion, and broadcaster, as an analyst, he was a great ambassador for...
That's true! Often fighters will talk like it's the end of the line after their first hard loss. But you know the media is going to HOUND him for that remark...
Any thoughts on this one? Does the layoff affect Floyd? Will the wars catch up with Juan Manuel? The Size difference matter? Good fight or boring fight? ...
My take is that Mayweather SHOULD win this easily by UD. That being said, however.... It'd be interesting to see how the layoff and the injury break sustained...
