The Official Boxing Thread!!! - Part 4

[Silver Spider]

Last time Miura looked in control at the end of a round, he got knocked out in the next. Roman doesn't have Vargas' power but let's see what happens.

Edit: Welp...

 

[DarthSkywalker]

Santa Cruz won that fight. They better not screw him.

 

[DarthSkywalker]

Thank the Maker.

 

[Silver Spider]

Frampton-Santa Cruz 2 was like a role reversal of the first fight. This time, Leo fought like he fought the Mares fight and it worked for him.

I don't usually like to support easy fights, but Vargas needs some for the next couple of years.

I could watch Frampton & Santa Cruz fight every week. Both so evenly matched each capable of smart boxing or biting down on their gumshield & standing toe to toe. Utter joy to watch.

Thought the judges got it right, was a closer contest than their first bout some close rounds with maybe only 1 or 2 difference but I feel the right man had his arm raised.

Looking forward to the trilogy fight.

Mikey Garcia would destroy Broner.

He wouldn't beat any top 10 welter

 

[DarthSkywalker]

Yeah Broner has proven he isn't legit. We didn't need anymore evidence, but yeah, so obvious at this point.

Amir Khan is in talks to fight Manny Pacquiao. http://bbc.in/2kP0mgj

 

[Iceman]

He's looking for his next KO defeat!

I'm hoping Amere Con will just go away. Dude thinks he's bigger than what he really is. I hope Brook nor Manny fights him.

Roy Jones Jr want's to fight Anderson Silva on the undercard of the potential Mayweather/McGregor fight.

Watching Wilder vs. Washington and man does Virgil Hunter sound like Terrance Howard.

 

[Fallen Angel]

When is Wilder gonna start fighting actual fighters instead of just padding his record? It's not like he's just started like AJ. He's been in the game longer. This will be his 39th fight.

 

[Docker2.0]

Washington wasn't a bad fighter. He actually has skill, just a no name. With that being said, I think Joshua beating Wilder right now.

 

[Iceman]

About time yeah. If he doesn't intend to step it up when his fight numbers are in the 40s he may as well quit. We already know he can beat people of the level he's fighting every time he turns up.

Calling it now people: as much as I hate Amir Khan, I'm going with the upset of the year. You heard it here first. Taking Amir Khan over Manny by decision, no KO.

 

[Docker2.0]

Going with the upset peeps. Garcia over Thurman. My head says Thurman will win but some kind way, I think Garcia is going to pull it off.

 

[Fallen Angel]

I'm gonna stick with Thurman but it's tight.

Also Haye v Bellew at HW is this weekend too.

 

[Silver Spider]

I'm picking Thurman, but Danny always has a way of showing up when he's the underdog. I'll guess we'll see.

I can't see Bellew winning, though.

 

[Iceman]

Of course no KO lol. His only chance is to take it on points if he manages to not get hit properly all match. One hard punch from Pacquiao in any round with 40 seconds or so left on the clock and it will be curtains though. He throws enough accurate (lightweight) punches to always have a chance of taking it on points when he doesn't get knocked out.

 

[DarthSkywalker]

I am so excited for tonight's fight. I am picking Thurman, but I can see either guy winning.

 

[STARMAN]

I'm rooting for Thurman.

 

[DarthSkywalker]

Oh, I am definitely rooting for Thurman. That Danny goes around with his racist piece of trash father is enough for me to do that.

 

[Docker2.0]

Eh, I don't know man. The N word is not how it use to be. I swear when I was in Japan, I heard two of them calling each other that. Same in Philippines, same in the USA with two Latinos, same with two white dudes. He was wrong to say it but it doesn't make him racist. It is only used to be racist these days when dudes try to use it to beat a case, i.e., I beat his arse because he called me the n word. I DESPISE the use of that word but even I know it doesn't have the same weight it use to.
