Happened in Cleveland crazy enough I was younger but remember this being a big deal
that was the beauty of having boxing on hbo and showtime..hbo was the glamour and glitz and showtime was the real nikka shyt...that fight aired on showtime and it didnt even have that fanfare behind it...most ppl would sooner forget the klitschko HW era but there were some real scraps that happend...and brewster vs liakhovich was the best of them...lamon brewster was the most entertaining HW champ in that time

What are some good classic fights yall recommend for someone just getting deep into the sport? I’ve watched a few like gatti/ward, hearns/leonard, hearns/hagler, costilllo/coralles, Ali/foreman, holyfield/bowe.
Tbh as a casual, if you want to really get into watching boxing or any sport, you’d probably should try to understand boxing itself, different styles and moves etc.

That way you’ll appreciate the sport and some fights even more.
Otherwise you’ll just be trying to find a slugfest

Watching Hatton getting his ass whupped was the best thing that happened that year & never gets old. The insufferable UK fans as well as racists from Boxingscene forum were all depressed :heh:

First fight I ever saw as a kid

Over here they were hyping Hatton up something crazy…

He went out sad as hell :dead:

Any channels or pages you recommend to learn more? I follow a few IG pages that cover strategies.

Several instances of Haney clearly ducking and avoiding Teofimo Lopez. Haney knows how petition for belts when Teo vacates them but never petitions to actually fight him. Scust. :scust:

Show me said video please. I’ve only seen Punch say that ppl ridiculous for saying Teo shouldn’t fight Bud - he’s definitely rooting for Teo in that fight tho. So am I. Need I keep reminding y’all that Teo at 25 has a better resume than a nearly retired p4p #1 Bud? :francis:

What belt was Haney supposed to petition for??
The WBO he got from Taylor. As soon as Teo “retired” Haney contacted the WBO and petitioned for the belt being that he was undisputed at 135 and had just moved up.

Never petitioned for it when Teo won the belt. And as soon as Teo came out of retirement Haney seemingly forgot how to file petitions. Pathetic. He wants no Teo problems. :hhh:

So I ate a well placed body shot last time in sparring for the first time I experienced that kind of pain. It was light sparring so nothing too bad but that sharp pain that creep on you for like 10 seconds then slowly fade was a first :damn:

I probably had a good poker face so my partner didnt jump on the occasion but his next attack I instinctively drop my elbows to protect my stomach smh. Now I know what it feels :mjcry:

My patience for stupidity is at an all time low.

You keep bringing the resume up but he lost to a man that got dogwalked by a man that you're claiming ducked him. :mjlol:

Root for him all you want. Bud would beat the absolute fukk outta Teo.

Nothing wrong with being a fan. It's a problem when you're a fukkin idiot. :heh:
