Re: Carl Froch vs Caleb Plant

I'd favor Froch. Plant would probably do well early, but I don't think he keeps Froch off of him for the whole 12 rounds, and I don't think he can hurt Froch while Froch can and will hurt him.

Re: Maoris Perform Haka To Block LGBT Parade In Auckland

It's kinda stupid that this sh*t is still in the news constantly. Whether the Parade got protesters or whether it went off without a hitch. Who f*cking cares? Why is it in the news?

Re: Tommy Morrison vs. George Chuvalo

Morrison would be kicking George's ass for about 4 or 5 rounds. Then he'd start to gas, and George would start taking over more and more, and from about Round 8 on he'd be kicking Tommy's ass for as long as Tommy could stand it. I got George by KO in 10. He's not a giant of a man so he's gonna have ...

Re: Hello World! Get ready for Trump’s tariffs.

Trump talking about imposing Tariffs on the UK because of VAT? Surely even he isn't that stupid - does he not realise VAT is a sales tax, and that it is across the board no matter where the goods come from? I'm almost beginning to think that Tariff is the only Governmental type of word that Trump k...

Re: Hello World! Get ready for Trump’s tariffs.

At this point Trump has won the con game. So he doesn't care if he pisses off his own base at this point. He just wants to take all the suckers for all they're worth, with this last big heist. So anything he can do that will mean more money for him, and less for everybody else, he'll do.

Re: Halfway Through the 2020's Decade, Who's the Decade Greatest Fighter?

Usyk, and the gap between him and #2 is a mile wide in my opinion.

If Crawford beats Canelo he will have narrowed that gap significantly, and possibly even bridged it. If he doesn't. He never will.

As it stands right now with Crawford still not having fought Canelo. Usyk ranks above him by a lot.

Re: Hello World! Get ready for Trump’s tariffs.

One of the major Employers around here. A Paper Mill shut down today, costing 700 people their jobs. I don't think that factory shutting down out of the blue, and the Tariffs being in effect are a coincidence, and I don't doubt it'll be the reason why my job is lost before this term is over either.

After the Parker/Dubois winner. We could just sort of let the up and coming Heavyweights fight it out over the Summer to see who gets the last crack at Usyk.

Bakole or Zhang would be interesting options.

Re: Joe Louis vs Gene Tunney

It would somewhat resemble Joe Louis vs Billy Conn in that Tunney would be outboxing Joe Louis until all of sudden he isn't. It's possible he could outbox Louis the whole way through, but I'd lean toward Louis catching up to him, and knocking him out.

Re: Who could Crawford fight before Canelo?

In the old days, Crawford would have a couple of stay busy tune-up bouts, before the Big Clash versus Canelo in September. Murtalaziev, Fundora, and Lara, they'd be the ideal three opponents imo. Crawford-Lara in a 10 rounder non title bout would still make for a good scrap, especially for the fans...

Re: Arthur Abraham vs Felix Sturm

I'd definitely favor Abraham in this. Sturm may win the early rounds, as a lot of people tended to do, but I have a hard time seeing him able to go 12 rounds with Abraham without either getting KO'd or knocked down a few times, and just generally battered to a defeat.
