Your strange opinions on boxing........

[danchar123]

Hi there,
I just wanted to hear some opinions that you guys have either about boxers or fights that other people disagree with you and/or think that you are just plain strange for saying.

For example some of mine are....
Lennox Lewis (on top form) would have a more than 50% chance than beating any other heavyweight that ever live (on there best night).

Even the best version of Mike Tyson would have lost to Buster Douglas on the night they fought.

Evander Holyfield was blaintenly on some form of performance enhancing drugs why he was fighting at heavyweight those who think he wasn't are just deluding themselves (not sure this one is strange).

Im sure i will think of some more but for now i have to get on with some work.

IMO, Lennox Lewis, at his best could beat any other Heavyweight. Lennox was truly amazing, and should be considered in the top 10 boxers in P4P history. (Many will disagree with me, but he beat everyone there was to beat, and that included some quality Heavies)

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.

For the record I thought Tyson won the Douglas fight just because of that very slow 10 count, but to Douglas' credit he was in perfect form and the only reason he got up is because of his memory and devotion to his mother and went on to abuse Tyson even more. Douglas to me had great potential but that night he shined when he needed to. And though I was as fascinated as anyone else with Tyson, I never personally ranked him in the top 15 of Heavyweights period. I wanted Tyson to win at that time, but am glad now Douglas did it, for sentimental reasons of his mom. But it was a travesty that he was given so much time to get off the floor.

I actually did some research into Oscar De La Hoya's background because I was convinced he was the antichrist

Years ago guys I worked with @ the time were saying no way Leonard beat Hagler. I can see people disagreeing about the decision in that fight but they said Ray didn't knock down or knock out Hagler so no way should he have won that fight.

I told them it's called boxing, not knockout. If it took knocking down or knocking out Hagler to beat him, I don't think he ever would have lost a fight @ 160.

Good point Black Razor. To give a horrible analogy, people say baseball is boring, they just want to see home runs. Well, then go to the home run derby, as baseball entails more than just a home run. Same with boxing, as it is an awesome display of a physical chess match, and Leonard was a grandmaster.

Yes for me also Lennox would have beaten any other heavy of any era best out of 3

My strangest opinion about boxing is that i fiercely believe that they should introduce a new weight divsion between Cruiserweight and Heavyweight.

Especially now the Cruisers are starting to come along nicely, it will be a shame to watch the few who venture up to Heavyweight fail miserably.

The should be a new limit of 225or so

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.
