Boxing Thread

Yeah, I was watching it to.

Well I believe it will turn out to be a completely different fight which could spell trouble for Floyd. You better believe Floyd Sr. is going to make sure Oscar fights like Oscar of years past. By that I mean hes going to box, shoe shine, and the whole nine yards. I have the feeling this fight will exceed expectations especially after how the first went. Some might say that all Oscar has to do is throw the jab, but theres a reason he stopped throwing it before. He didn’t like getting hit directly on the button every time he pawed it out. To me that explanation is far to simple and can be applied to almost any fight (Zab just needed to throw the left more against Cotto, etc). With Oscar boxing smart there will likely be more action than with him just coming forward the entire time. His left hook is a non issue because there is no way in hell its going to touch anything but air. If he can get the better of exchanges even after Floyd dials the counter right in; he has a good chance. I don’t even think anyone else let alone Cotto, Cintron, etc could even handle Oscar’s skill set.

I go to sleep at night much easier knowing I can always get boxing gifs made on call. It’s a relief to know I always got that taken care of.

I loled at that thought today.

I can’t understand why people had Ricky Hatton on their pound for pound lists, even though he is still the best at 140, but they didn’t have Rafael Marquez/Israel Vasquez above him.

I’m going Pavlik. I did the first time and I’m taking him this time too. Taylor takes if he decides to start blocking right crosses. But, I think Taylor isn’t going to learn his lesson.

I think he’s living off his win over Kostya Tszyu. Hatton is looking like a bitch right now for not fighting Witter. Hatton is coming back to 140 with no belts. how long can he be called “champion” at 140 if he hasn’t fought the best at 140 since Kostya Tszyu

Its fucked up that fighters with bigger names makes more money putting out low quality fights while Rafael Marquez vs Israel Vasquez III is around the corner and no one cares.

randomlama: it’s hard to bet against Pavlik.

Stylistics what is your AIM screenname?

Naw, I don’t use aim.you watching the fight?

My boy Mijares putting on a clinic right now

Yeah I’m watching it

Let’s find some kind of chat so we can discuss in real time

I’m about pick up some pizza. i’ll be back on in a bit.

What you think about Mijares? Mijares is my kind of fighter. Complete, breaking the typical “Mexican face first brawler”. He can slip without wasting movement, catch punches and throw in volume with a good jab.

Mijares beats all the champions: 112,115, 118. Even Nonito Donaire

Anyone know of a good round by round summary site? Ima be reading it off espn, but was wondering if there are any sites that are better.

Uh-oh, Taylor’s working the Jab. It was heavily in Pavlik’s favor in the first round, and taylor’s been strong in the last two. Lots of quality shots being landed. This is a fight.

Wow, this fight looks like it’s going the distance. Both fighters are prety worn out.

Pavlik by UD. Hmm I thought Taylor would take this one and it would go to a third fight, guess not.
