Yo your hip hop references in every review are :russ:

Nate Campbell got his start very very late, im gonna be honest it definately showed, but what got me was how he would come in with the ugliest shorts i have ever seen in my life. Ill be honest, i dont have much to say about him other than he was couragous and i forget which hand hes got but he did have i think it was a cross that was particularly brutal when placed right. His shocker against Juan Diaz i legit think was the last time i saw him, duke wasnt exactly must see tv for me.


Jermaine Taylor. Man what a waste of a career, I got my first real look at him after the olympics against alex bunema and his jab was beautiful but his stamina wasnt. There was alwys something off about him and he had a real lack of stamina but this is a guy whos demise was oddly enough, winning his biggest fights. NOT losing hurt his career than actually fukking losing. That first hopkins fight, i still felt hopkins won, that was the fight i remember forrest coming back as well, around this time was also when i was so love struck and infatuated with my now fiance i remember being into the fight but also anticipating seeing the woman i love again. I also remember playing half-life 2 on my PC during a particularly boring fight, i think it might have been montiel, anyway, that fight you saw hopkins really expose this guy as never having a good center of gravity with his punches, he was a guy after the hopkins fight who seemed like he didint even win it. His rematch however...and i say this with laughter as i type, had the GOAT NATIONAL ANTHEM sung by r kelly. i dont know if yall have seen it, but this nikka kells, i cant describe it, the nikka was steppin in the name of love and clappin, i remember looking at this surrealness of it lmao.

anyhow, his fight with winky wright was one to this day i wish i bet on, i still feel wright did enogh to win, but i nearly bet 100 on the draw and lost smh. Taylor had no business in the super 6 but his showing against froch was admirable as was his two fights with pavlik, but he just, there was just something missing, like a chin and agin i cant explain it, but hislack of center, he was never really very fluid with his movement. I liked watching him up until the froch knockout. I remember being torn between him and lacy in their fight, two guys who were at their last shot at greatness and fought together, teammates and all. sometimes guys dont have to be the best to be loved. someties you just like them. i liked lacy and taylor, but his defensive lapses, inactivity and unnnessecary movements were his demise. I just hope for the best with him, he was a great guy to me.


Sharmba Mitchell was a guy who got alot of wins that didint matter but he did have great showings as a gatekeeper , but his lack of a chin, he simply couldnt stay on his damn feet. i also wasnt feeling those damn shorts but thats another story. He had good movement, a nice peppering jab and gave guys issues. he reminded me of a demarcus corley who to this day sticks out as a guy who stuck mayweather something serious (lol). anyhow alot of his fights i was usually seeing him get a beating but usually gracefully. He had no business at welterweight whatsoever. Anyhow, i honestly mostly remember his fights with tszyu, mayweather and paul williams. Dude actually was alot like malignaggi to me, which means i wasnt gonna watch depending on the opponent.

im not gonna lie, i never really saw levander johnson fight until that jesus chavez fight which should have been stopped sooner than it was, chavez was...psychologically dampened after that. he was hurt, Chavez was always a headfirst im coming for you and dying in that ring if i have to type fighter, after that johnson fight he seemed hesitent, i dont blame him neither. I honestly dont know much about johnson, i never really looked at him.

I remember watching Sharmba as a kid back in the day on Tuesday Night Fights on USA. He used to wear suspenders on his trunks to the ring because during a fight he got pantsed :russ: I remember them playing that clip on tv & we were all cracking up.

@ElMasChingon

Montell Griffen was really a decent fighter and by decent i mean his showings against James Toney are a question of "was toney on that bullshyt or did montell have his number" i can never really tell with fukking toney. Anyhow, I saw his fight with Michaelewski or whatever and i still to this day dont understand why he didint grab this fukking hypejob hometown German. His technique clearly bothered the German but when he got staggered he was fundamentally sound enough to fukking hold on as hurt as he was, he needed to just grab, they were NOT gonna hand Griffen the title over there. . I just dont get why he didint do that. Griffen might have reigned in todays era a bit better, but the fact is Jones Jr will always be the nemesis that asterix's over his name, Jones should have never got that DQ and it was bullshyt and thats why jones made it a point to let him know what time it was. One of the worst DQ's ive ever seen. He would have been linear fukking champion, by the Tarver fight he lost a step though he declined fairly quickly but i never thought that highly of him, but again Jones Jr being around basically made it so he had no chance to really try to unify again, if Michaelewski or whatever would take a fukking rematch here in america (he wouldnt have) he might have actually adjusted, he was doing enough to fukking win.

Thread is dope as hell enjoy reading it :obama:

How do you feel about the current #1 p4p fighter krackda.......Andre Ward :lupe:
nikka fukk EVERYBODY its ward all day nikka, WARD, AKA DANNY STUNTMAN WHEELER, AKA SYDNEY GOLD, AKA S.O.G AKA IM NEVER TOO GOOD TO TALK TO THE FANS, AKA I STILL SHOW LOVE TO THE HOOD.

I loved Ward but early i was REALLY fukking worried he would turn out to be a olympic flame out. He had a tendency to get caught early and get dropped, this is just like Amir kahn, the difference, Andre adjusted his amatuer ways and started becoming a Jersey Joe, Hopkins type figure, "ill fight you clean, drity, whatever it takes" a true throwback fighter in every sense. His showing in the super 6 tho..my god, When he looked good against Miranda alot of the talk was "HE NOT FUN TO WATCH THO" fukk you, study fight film nikka, alot of these fights were down and dirty, PACS reign was hot so everyone was knockout happy. Not men, i was watching my mullatto gawd put in that work. But Kessler, Kessler was supposed to actually win the fukking super 6 alot of people dont remember that, he put the beating of a lifetime on that nikka and had him quitting on the stool. I was proud man. He jsut ran through everyone, then he knocked out chat dawson, but then the injuries :sadcam:

I love ward, he grabs, he forearms, he elbows, he hits right on the belt, times his hits on the break, uses his jab, his cross, a great hook to the body, he has all the tools including footwork. I am thinking of going to the fight down the street in a couple weeks. Anyhow, this #SOG nikka, 97G never went through the super 6, never went through a murderers row of contendors, never drew a real pay per view yet everyone puts the pressure on ward?

Tszyu held onto that belt for how long? in between one defense of mitchell whom hed already beaten and the WBC (i think) still gave him special status, not ward tho. fukk 97g nikka, this ward gang, we fight live bodies out here and if you wanna see me about it, see me at oracle on the 26, when you see a dusty skinny lightskin nikka with a chubby latina and child, you know its me. You see me, but your father never instilled any toughness in you, so youll just walk by with your head down realizing your overzealous love for the #97g was just talk. Ill smack any nikka word to allah who wanna disrespect ward and thats on the east nikka.

Dap, rep, bookmarked, printed out n hung up on my wall, will read to my son tonight :wow:

It's funny Ward is like Floyd in a sense that he gets hated on online but I have never seen him spoken about in a negative manner in the gym. Ward beat up the dude that taught me how to box n i still stan dude, he is that damn good :to:

Love the Jersey Joe the gawd reference :mjcry: that fukkboy Marciano lucky he caught the Jersey gawd when he was :flabbynsick:

Muthafukkas (i.e Mexicans) were MAD AS fukk down here when Diaz lost to Nate Campbell :lolbron: I watched that fight live at a BBQ with some friends and they peoples

Baby Bull being the Texas kid and throw in some good old fashioned boxing race tensions made for a classic night

All of my black homeboys were like :salute::umad:

My ese potnas looking like :martin::to:

I won't lie I didn't see Diaz losing to Campbell back then, but a young nikka underestimated Nate's heart and determination. Galaxxy Warrior wanted that fight bad

Epic ass kicking. I also remember Nate bullshyttin with Robbie tweeden and getting knocked the fukked out
