Wow thats an interesting outlook Buttercup....and certainly worth thinking about.......i was referring to middleweights,personally id put him maybe 4th or 5th of all time.........The reason id put him as an all time great is because he beat other all time great fighters.......what you say could be said about any of the other 3.......ok Leonard beat Benitez but regardless of how many titles you win in other divisions ultimately its the opponent in front of you that makes the accomplishment......had Hagler moved up and beat the likes of Barklay,Kinchen,Lalonde,Dennis Andries etc ( very average c

Of course i remember him......but whats he got to do with this thread .................and as for what Floyd said................well what did he say i still cant work it out Never thought too highly of Pacheco myself........cant see how you become an expert boxing pundit having never taken a punch,and making a career off the back of someone else well thats just wrong.......always thought he sounded like a bit of a dick really.

You boys been out on the piss together

What do you make of that channel AFT ? been a bit dissapointing really ive spoke to a few people about it most say the same......thought they would be showing a few more fights from the ages...shame really.

Nothing to say just didnt realise you cant " like " a moderators posts........but nice one.

Billy Morgan he,s a good little fighter only had 6 or 7 fights he,ll be looking to go up to the 10 rounders later in the year.......His only fault is being an Arsenal fan....i blame the parents ! Your welcome Wilf,i wont be paying so neither will you

Thats it im f****d now.............................i knew i should of weighted the ex wife down a bit better !

Floyd missed that rivalry with PacMan. Now Manny is looking towards the end of his career and coming off two losses I doubt we'll ever see it now. I think it would of been a bit of a manufactured rivalry really......not to take away from Paquiaos achievements through the weights but had they met i think Mayweather would of dealt with him quite comfortably. Proud Kilimanjaro theres a name from the past.....he was lined up to fight Lennox till it was discovered he had aids !!!.....Think he died of it not long after. Wilf a good friend of mines son is fighting at York Hall towards the en

Ive always been of the opinion that to become an iconic name in the sport you have to have an iconic opponent......The Duran/Leonard/Hagler/Hearns era was freakish in that 4 iconic all time greats were plying their trade at the same time in the same weight divisions........Would Frazier be an icon of the sport without Ali......Benn without Eubank etc etc............I believe Floyd Mayweather is every bit as good as the names mentioned but he hasnt had " a rivalry ".....so will probably not go do down as a ring legend we talk about with the same enthusiasm we talk about Hagler/Hearns etc. I

Boyz N The Hood, very good film as far as black crime films go. If you enjoyed that, try Menace II Society. I felt it was a touch grittier than BNTH and it's more realistic in my opinion.But still both very good films. I'll look out for it mate, cheers. I like the gritty film especially British ones. A good wee british film worth a deck is based in greenock I think called sweet sixteen. Boyz N tha hood and Menace II society both Over the top black bullshit IMO. They try to make heroes out of black scumbags. Theres only so many times you can hear kids calling each other " blood " and " man "

Quite possibly i cant remember now.....i might be wrong but i think Sibson was the only man to ever stop Minter in all his losses,he had a good chin he just opened up too easy. Hagler would have to be in any top 10 all time greats list one of the only fighters i ever saw who just had no weakness to his game at all.

went off big time hagler thought he was in beruit That was a memorable night a few of us 20 year olds went along to support a few of the older local lads Sylvester Mittee got a win Ray Cattouse got stopped on cuts if i remember right...........all of a sudden we,re in the middle of a riot we all come away saying " what was all that about " ....... Dont know if you lads are old enough to remember ( now who sounds 96 ! ).......but Minter had said before the fight " I will never lose my title to a black man ".........oooops !!!!.........The trouble was started by a bunch of national front
-
I just thought perhaps because they are in nice pens they might be something special.....clearly not !.......Anyway if i know my mate he wont put up with that noise for long....f**k me dont they make a racket !! Cheers anyway chaps
-
I thought it would be as easy as looking at a dog breed for someone who knew what they was looking at......................think i,ll just tell him Bob & Mavis after all save arguments ! Basically the ol boy had died and the son had been coming over looking after the animals so to speed things up my mate said he would take them on they are in decent pens etc.......would just be nice to know what they are thats all.
-
Just struck me odd a metal yard in Peckham sponsoring a boxing event in Liverpool ..................Think your being a bit harsh mate they are decent level fighters,heavyweight boxing is like that at times.

Thankyou sir A pal of mines just moved out into the countryside and these have been left by the former house owner,he rang me asking what they are i said what do i know about chickens !.......I said take a picture and send it to me i,ll find out off these really intelligent knowledgable people on this website i go on..................until good ol Fenn came along i was gonna have to ring him and say they are called " Bob and f****n Mavis " !!! You cant tell we,re townies can you

What's wrong with our Hilda? Lol. No nothing.....nothing at all she was very attractive............................more of an Ena Sharples man myself like

God rest his soul,James was a good fighter......i cant remember exactly but i think he was probably taller than both Fury or Price......not that it matters your right he wouldnt of troubled the Klitchkos.....i only mentioned those 2 because of their height....but in fairness i think even the likes of Bent,Danny Williams even Herbie Hide would all have been on par with Price/Fury. For me the Klitchkos would beat both our big 2 they are very good at keeping things simple,keeping fights long and utilising their assets........something our 2 havent quite mastered yet id give Fury more of a chance
-
Just out of curiosity mate.....did he say that before the fight or after ?
-
Nah not my cuppa tea....as Pip said theres something very " Hilda Ogden " about them..................take the wallpaper away.....and Hilda seems to go away with it

Totaly agree' I couldnt believe how lean he looked, Almost drawn in. Looked like he could of easily carried another 3-4 kilo and still looked in shape ? Ask any conditioner be it conditioning human or animal the hardest part is finding a fighters best weight........and thats something that takes a real experienced eye......an old friend of mine has conditioned fighters from 3 round amateurs right up to pro world champions his ability to spot a fighters best weight is unbelievable ive seen lads arrive with him as welterweights that in his hands were light welters or middleweights that he had
