Dr_Pangloss Posted October 5, 2013 Author Share Posted October 5, 2013 LMAO Povetkin down on a left hook. Although Povetkin has made Klitschko look terrible as Wlad hates people getting in on his inside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr_Pangloss Posted October 5, 2013 Author Share Posted October 5, 2013 Horrible fight from Clinch-ko, the ref needs to take a point off of him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr_Pangloss Posted October 5, 2013 Author Share Posted October 5, 2013 Worst heavyweight fight that I've ever seen, a complete disgrace, Klitschko by a landslide is the only result. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Rev Posted October 5, 2013 Share Posted October 5, 2013 I could have told you that would happen a couple of hours ago and saved you the bother of having to suffer through it. Klitschko is an excellent fighter and seems like a thoroughly decent bloke but I'd rather staple my eyelid to a desk than just watch him strangle yet another opponent for twelve rounds.

Dr_Pangloss Posted October 5, 2013 Author Share Posted October 5, 2013 I actually look to his fights against Sanders and Brewster with pride, I sincerely hope I see him flat on his back and out for the count again before he retires. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr_Pangloss Posted October 6, 2013 Author Share Posted October 6, 2013 (edited) Well Cotto 'returned to form' with a 3 round demolition over Delvin Rodriguez. Rodriguez is what American fans would call a 'Friday Night Fights' (ESPN) boxer who really, HBO were overrating when calling him 'B level'. He's actually C level and has lost to the likes of Theophane and Jackiewiz before (who Kell Brook stopped quite recently). What we did see from Cotto was a change in style, he has been a lot more patient and defensive over the last 2 or 3 years but last night applied a lot more pressure, cut the ring off like he used when he was at 140lbs and threw a lot more body shots. He was punching with a lot more 'mustard' than he has in recent time and throwing a lot more punches. I think he probably has a couple of good fights left in him, where I do worry for him is that against a higher quality opponent this high octane style Roach has him fighting in could see him gas in the later rounds, and he has had stamina issues in the past. But still, they are talking about possible fights against Canelo and/or Sergio Martinez, so could be fun, Cotto brings a fan friendly style and passionate supporters.

Guest av1 Posted October 10, 2013 Share Posted October 10, 2013 Former undisputed world heavyweight champion Lennox Lewis could make a sensational return to boxing, 10 years after his last fight, according to the Daily Mail. Lewis, 48, said he would face current IBF, WBA and WBO world heavyweight champion Wladimir Klitschko if he was paid £62.7m ($100m) and claims he was recently offered half of that sum to fight again. "That is my price tag and it is under discussion," Lewis is quoted as saying. "I have told them I can be ready in six months and I am in provisional training."

leemond2008 Posted October 10, 2013 Share Posted October 10, 2013 Haven't heard about that one, I think I would actually want chisora to win that one. Frank Maloney has thrown the towel in on the whole promoting game hasn't he.Mind you I don't think his health is the best any way is it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Rev Posted October 11, 2013 Share Posted October 11, 2013 www.bbbofc.com/notices/11-10-13-2It's on their website. It's up for purse bid with the fight scheduled to take place by February 2014. It's an interesting fight, they both badly need to win and Price can't go 12 rounds. He will either win big or lose big. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coda Posted October 11, 2013 Share Posted October 11, 2013 Surely Chisora will win easily. I'm surprised Price is still fighting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leemond2008 Posted October 11, 2013 Share Posted October 11, 2013 I thought Del Boy looked decent in his last fight and handled a big shot that clearly rocked him really well.He seems to be taking his career a lot more seriously now, he came into his last fight 3 stones lighter than he did when he fought Fury and has knocked the biscuits on the head Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Rev Posted October 11, 2013 Share Posted October 11, 2013 Surely Chisora will win easily. I'm surprised Price is still fighting. Price has phenomenal power though. Chisora has a great chin but Haye proved he can be knocked out, I think Chisora will win if he actually turns up (ie, without a big beer belly) but Price has a punchers chance.

Dr_Pangloss Posted October 11, 2013 Author Share Posted October 11, 2013 (edited) Ahhhh if this does happen then all I have to say is RIP David Price's boxing career. This is a suicidal fight for Price, at best he has a punchers chance, of course with his power he's capable of landing the big shot and ending it. But Chisora is a stylistic nightmare for Price because he's a pressure fighter who can fight on the inside. Price is a pathetic inside fighter who looks like the amateur he is whenever someone steps into the pocket with him. I see Chisora getting close and ending it because although Chisora isn't a particularly 'big' puncher at the weight Price's chin is pure glass.

villaajax Posted October 11, 2013 Share Posted October 11, 2013 The heavyweight division is a joke. Lennox Lewis?, Argh Lennox Lewis is still my favourite, I'd love to see him give Tyson Fury some more brain damage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr_Pangloss Posted October 11, 2013 Author Share Posted October 11, 2013 (edited) Lennox was awesome but he's 48 and has been retired for like 10 years, would be suicidal for him to come back. Although for a $100m I'd fight a Klitschko... For the hell of it, some of my favourite Lewis moments: Destroyed Andrew Golota inside one round. Many were predicting Golota to starch Lewis as he had just ended the career of Riddick Bowe, he had an incredible amount of hype and Lewis annihilated him: Getting revenge on Rahman. He and some how manages to get KO'd by him in the first fight, But Lewis' revenge is sweet, one of the best heavyweight KO's I've ever seen.

Dr_Pangloss Posted October 12, 2013 Author Share Posted October 12, 2013 (edited) Looking forward to Bradley vs Marquez later. I'm a fan of both so looking forward to enjoying the fight. I think if Bradley works the jab, shows Marquez a lot of angles and movement he can win the fight. A good example of this sort of style beating Marquez is Freddie Norwood who beat Marquez way back in 1999/2000 Edited October 12, 2013 by Dr_Pangloss Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
