I think Tyson at his best would have stomped on Buster inside a few rounds. Tyson was something special, and I hope somebody similar comes along again to the Heavyweight division in my lifetime.
I wouldn't be surprised if Evander has dabbled in the steroids. It doesn't matter if he did or he didn't though, because God helped him through each victory, so therefore the steroids would have had no extra effect.
What on earth are you saying there? 'God' stopped the effect the steroids had and then helped Evander win? ;D

I hear you on that bro'. I could only deal with 2 showboaters; Ali and my man Emanuel Augustus. That guy probably lost more fights because of decisions going against him for showboating then anyone I know of.
just a quick one i'm a sis not a bro ;) ;) ;) ;D ;D
Re: Your strange opinions on boxing........
-I think the majority of "boxing fans" are actually only fans of the violence and knockouts, and not of the actual sport of boxing itself. This would explain the unpopularness of guys like Floyd Mayweather and Cory Spinks, ect.
-I feel that most boxing fans overrate the fighters of old, perhaps to be viewed as knowledgeable or "old school". I'm not talking about guys like Ali, Ray Robinson, Roberto Duran, ect. I'm talking about the guys who NO ONE here has actually seen fight (or maybe only saw 1 or 2 clips on them), and still ranking them in the top 5 of all time in their weight class.

Okay whats with the "boxing fans" quotation marks like we aint true boxng fans if we dont like Spinks?
Spinks is NOT the epitome of Boxing.
Believe me, if ever i stand corrected on that i'll let Pro Boxer 18 bend me over and rip me a new one :-\

I think that's really the case with a lot of MMA fans who enjoy guys tackling one another and slamming each other to the ground - like wrestling but for real.
That's probably why wrestling has actually been losing more PPV $'s than boxing has recently as it was assumed from an article I read recently.
Re: Your strange opinions on boxing........
PBF is would be competitive in any era.
Re: Your strange opinions on boxing........
TRINIDAD AT HIS PRIME AT 147 IS UNBEATABLE. THAT INCLUDES PBF, DLH, MOSLEY, LEONARD, HEARNS, DURAN, ROBINSON, ANYBODY!!!!!!!
I know its crazy, I just can't help my self, I don't really think he is unbeatable..HE IS..sory again. but I do think he could beat any welterweight in any ara at least once...EVERY TIME..stop it.. sory... out of three... ;D
Re: Your strange opinions on boxing........
I think the should make a headgear that only covers the back of the head, the soft spot. It has to leave the jaw and temples open tho, and make it for use in pro boxing. I think Hopkins won the first fight with Taylor. Sugar Ray Leonard got gift decisions for his public image.The heavyweight should be broken up, and make a super heavyweight division, then combine cruiserweight and smaller heavies, maybe cut off at 240.

Re: Your strange opinions on boxing........
Womens boxing should be aired on the Lifetime network(more woman viewers). Leave ESPN2 and Fox to air more men in the ring.

LOL.... you sound wacked out there, Rookie Fan. But a man after my own heart. Here.... have your 50th CC.
Re: Your strange opinions on boxing........
I guess there strange cause I haven't heard anyone else share them sooo here goes.
Gomez should have been DQ'd for hitting Zarate while he was down.
Arguello won the 1st meeting with Pryor.
Ricardo Lopez is underrated.
RJJ could have fought in any era of boxing and would have been a nightmare for anyone.
