Fights that HAVE to be blowouts or I lose respect for the favorite
With all these fighters nowadays, pickin and choosin, sifting through opponents fighting a maximum of three fights a year, I can see why the general public is becoming disinfranchised with boxing. That being said, the following fights MUST be completely one-sided IMO to regain any respect.
Valuev vs. McCline
Daws vs. Morrison
Hatton vs. Urango
Castillo vs. Ngoudjo
Munyai vs. Power
Calzaghe vs. Manfredo
Fights that should be close that I look forward to
Toney vs. Peter
Adamek vs. Dawson
Mayweather vs. de la Hoya

Re: Fights that HAVE to be blowouts or I lose respect for the favorite
Hatton vs. Urango
Castillo vs. Ngoudjo
Calzaghe vs. Manfredo Jr. (won't be a blowout but he'll give calzaghe fits)
Think these will be fairly close...

I don't think there is any reason for these fights to be close at all.
Urango, is perhaps THE slowest fighter I've ever scene, he's gonna be target practice for Ricky's body shots
Ngoudjo, he, well most of you haven't seen him I will assume so here is a clip
[youtube=425,350]6RkFAcirNbM[/youtube] he is the one that looks like he is paralyzed.
Emanual Augustus got robbed big time in this fight.
And PRIDE, I know you like Manfredo, but he is not ready for this step-up yet, he needs to tighten up that defense a little more, it's not nearly up to par with Joe's speed.
-
Re: Fights that HAVE to be blowouts or I lose respect for the favorite
The ones listed will be onesided IMO.
Ive said before that I dont think Hatton will demolish Urango but give him a sustained beatdown for the duration.
Another one that catches the eye is Munyai V Power. I cant see any reason why Munyai wont dominate Power but he does take a few rounds to get warmed up so it will be another late stoppage for me.

I honestly think the Hatton fight will be closer then expected
I have seen Ngoudjo fight prior and I think he is very inconsistent in his getting in shape for fights... One of his biggest problems...
As far as Manfredo... As I said I think He will give Joe a better fight then we think... You won't find in any thread where I said I expect him to win this fight... I hope he hets lucky cuz no he is not on his level but he always brings the fight to the guy and is good @ recognizing and adapting since going with roach albiet fighting extremely flawed fighters... I have high hopes... My highest is just that he does not get embarassed... I do agree with all the rest of your post though... CC my friend

CC in 24, haven't spoken with ya much lately bro, I don't think Manfredo will be embarressed, as I don't think anyone will expect to much from him, he had better be working on his defense night and day until then, because throwing off Calzaghe's pitter pat flurries is the only chance he's got.

Daws I can see why you might not see him with the others, but now is the time for him to move from prospect to contender, and he needs to do that in a convincing fashion, which he should be able to do.
Munyai just blew out Power in June, not sure why he is fighting him again.

Re: Fights that HAVE to be blowouts or I lose respect for the favorite
JC MUST blow out Manfredo otherwise he'll get EVEN MORE critics!

OK, don't think Daws is anything special so a British title fight seems a bit odd amongst World title fights..."proven" champs.
Power was ahead on the cards (wrongly) when the fight was stopped (some argue prematurely), sure they wouldn't be fighting Munyai again if they didn't think they could win (get the nod) this time.....Thats one reason, anyway. ;)

Re: Fights that HAVE to be blowouts or I lose respect for the favorite
I'm only looking at Hatton & Joe Cs performances.... and I agree with you they BETTER! blow them out... So they can both move on and fight someone with credibility.... :)

Mind you McCline went to a Split decision with Byrd
HE lost to Calvin Brock by only 2 rounds on 2 judges scorecards and one round on another 93-97,93-96,94-96
If only 2 rounds had swung McClines way we have
95-95,95-94,96-94 A majority decision for Mcline!
so it was pretty close!
MAY i assume that you have no respect for those two fighters then?
Klitschko got him out but it took 10 rounds so will a KO in less than 10 makes him better than Klitschko?
A lofty statement indeed!
We'll have to wait and see.
BTW i loved the video! Whats with the funky chicken on crack dancing?
Guy dances all around and then gets popped,more funky dancin...then pop pop! loved it! Maybe if he had spent the time he was dancing doing what he did in the last 60 seconds he would of won the fight! Stupid move on his part I think!

Re: Fights that HAVE to be blowouts or I lose respect for the favorite
There must be a language problem here. For me a blow out is when someone gets iced, and quick. I cant see any of the fighters nominated winning quickly. Comprehensively yes, but not quick.

Here we go again with this guy fought this guy, so that makes him good, bullshit. You know Mitch Green once went 10 full rounds with a prime Mike Tyson. Yeah 10 rounds. If Mike wouldn't of kept on beating on Green round after round, than those rounds could of gone to Green. And than nobody would of ever heard of Tyson. It would of been Mitch Green who would of been the baddest man on the planet. So don't anybody ever knock Green. He went 10 rounds with Tyson
-
Re: Fights that HAVE to be blowouts or I lose respect for the favorite
LOL hey how many rounds did you go with Mike Tyson?
or Mitch Green for that matter?
I don't know how else to evaluate a pro boxer other than the people he has fought and how he did in those fights. Perhaps we could consult a wizard from the circus to feel and read the bumps on his head?
Hey Mitch green also fought Trevor Berbick!
and he fought Sammy Scaff who fought Tim witherspoon who fought Everett "bigfoot" Martin who fought George Foreman! who sold a grilling machine to Wlad Klitschkos cousins neigbours dentist's retarded stepson! SO THERE!!! NNNYYAAAAA!!!
But seriously I KNOW that Mitch Green still brags to anyone who will listen about his feud with Tyson,both inside and outside of the ring

Thanks for the correction Killersheep !
I got to Disagree on this one killer . . Ngoudjo is landing very nice shots for the most part. I think Urango is a good fighter.. I disagree about the Augustus fight.. one guy coming to fight ( Ngoudjo) the other guy mocking boxing and acting like a moron.. Augustus is shit IMO. can't stand that kind of fighter. playing games and shit. basically making fun of the sport ..
I think the Hatton - Urango fight will be very entertaining and competitive , Urango is somewhat awkward southpaw who comes to fight. . and I look forward to watching it. ! O0

this is how i see it
Calzaghe - Manfredo = will be better then you think ! good fight here !
Hatton vs. Urango = will be competitive for as long as it lasts . both guys come to fight ! Always love watching Hatton fight ! pure fucking adrenaline rush ! Non stop pressure !
Valuve - Mccline = McCline is not all that bad . He just needs more confidence, and needs to get hungry and angry in there. he can win this one ! valuve is a human punching bag, its very important to let the hand go once your on the inside. uppercuts are the key here ! hope he is working on this punch overtime.. when Valuve tried to grab. he needs to make himself smaller turn sideways and shoot that uppercut str8 up and reach for the stars !

IF you are tuff enuff to go 10 rounds with a prime Tyson, and ballsy enuff to get into a street fight with him, nearly losing your eye in the process, then you deserve the right to brag. You deserve some props in my mind.

Those fighters above I will still lose respect for them NO matter how they win, they shouldn’t of taken these fight to begin with. And on the Manfredo note, I wouldn’t be surprised to see another 1 sided flop. At best I believe it could go 6 rounds. I am not impressed with the padded record of calzaghe, and he isnt my favorite fighter But I gotta give him the fight hands down.
But, I don’t believe calzaghe has the power to Knock manfredo out for a 10 count, but he does have the stamina, and ring experience to cause the ref to stop the beatdown. Remember, manfredo has not faced an opponent with even half the talent, speed, stamina as calzaghe…
Also, manfredo is about to clear 500k for the fight. Not a bad chunk of change for a kid living in connecticut, who has already wisely invested most of his contender earnings (500k), 2 fights since the contender (approx. 300k), and promos/appearance money on large rental property development. I’d take that fight too if it meant the end of my career, but capping off 1million gross in about 2 years worth of boxing.

Very true.... after this fight(if its a lose...) How prominent do you think peter will be in the sport?

Re: Fights that HAVE to be blowouts or I lose respect for the favorite
to be honest.
When its over, peter manfredo will most likely get quite a few offers for fights, because promoters love the "I beat the guy who fought the guy".
I see manfredo having a few fights afterwards with serious contenders trying to get a name. What happens there, we can only wait and see. Manfredo could beat them, and get another shot, or lose and be sent back to Connecticut to live comfortably with what he has. Some don't realize, when you get that title shot (win-lose), even if its not a big payday, it opens doors to numerous lucrative opportunities (financially). some just don't know how to capitalize on it.

Re: Fights that HAVE to be blowouts or I lose respect for the favorite
o0 people talk about manfredo like before the contender he wasnt a pro boxer? the guy was ranked #3 in the world before going on the show? he had the chance to get his face seen and his name known to make some big money and he took it. this guy is a pro boxer, hes trained by one of the best in the world. I think it is and shoult be a fairly one sided fight for calzaghe, but i think people r gunna be quite shocked just how well manfrdo actualy does, he needs to move down to Mw tho, he might pick up a world title there, to small for smw.

No language problem mate. Personally I don't see either Hatton or Calzaghe being caused any problems by Urango and that american lad with the strange sci-fi/fantasy nose. I think Hatton will swamp Urango and it'll get stopped before too long when the ref sees so little coming back. I think the same will happen in the Calzaghe bout, with Manfredo bamboozled by Calzaghe's movement and angles, and failing to connect with his own replies to Calzaghe.

I HOPE Calzaghe can beat freakin Peter Manfredo. And WHO ranked Manfredo #3 in the world?! Thats ridicilious, he hadn't fought nobody before "The Contender", and now aside from a shot Pemberton, who himself was never #3 in the world legitametely at least, and who probably took a dive against Manfredo, still hasn't fought nobody. Manfredo's a nice kid, pretty good skills, but he is in no way deserving of a title shot against Calzaghe, Calzaghe knows it, and is fighting him anyway. Its absurd, and embarrasing.
