[Heretic]

I had 40 $ on hunter to win

[sweetviolenturge]

That's two nice wins back to back for Hunter out of the three that he's had since moving up to heavyweight following his loss to Ursk. Which in my opinion make him a dark horse contender for bigger & better things soon. With his style, he could prove to be troublesome for a lot of heavies. Just like his father was back in the day. Hopefully, his people will move him smartly though so he won't run into the same sort of issues that plagued his dad such as taking fights on short notice in his opponent's backyards & coming out on the wrong end of decisions that should have gone his way.

True, another interesting showdown at the HWs featuring Hunter. He can break through the rankings.

[mustlogin]

I'd like to see him against Bryant Jennings or Andy Ruiz.

[jamamb]

Nice win for Hunter! His dad Mike "Bounty" Hunter was a very unorthodox HW fringe contender in the 1980-1990s and one of the craziest dudes that ever laced up a pair of gloves, both IN and OUT of the boxing ring. Here's a brief video that has a quick shot of his son at age 2 coming into the ring after one of his fights:


Hunter retired in 1996 after his career was plagued by drug-problems. Ten years later he died tragically during an attempt to rob 2 guys who turned out to be undercover LAPD officers.

Along the way, Hunter also battled drugs. It may have been that weakness that led him on February 8 to the roof of the St. Moritz Motel, where he encountered undercover officers from the Los Angeles Police Department.

Two Hollywood Division officers had set up surveillance for a routine buy-bust operation at a Mobil Gas Station next door. LAPD spokesman Lieutenant Paul Vernon gives this account of what happened next: It was around 7 p.m. The 46-year-old Hunter came up from behind Officer Todd Ramsey, 41, who was busy talking on his cell phone. Without provocation, Hunter hit him on the head with a gun. Ramsey’s partner saw what happened and tackled the former boxer. The two cops and Hunter struggled. Hunter broke free, stepped back a few feet, and pointed his gun at Ramsey. Ramsey fired twice, hitting Hunter in the chest and arm. Hunter was pronounced dead at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center. Ramsey was also treated at the hospital, for the blow to his head, and was sent home that evening.

“It does not appear that he knew they were police officers,” Vernon said. “Perhaps he saw an opportunity to rob them.”

Hunter’s weapon turned out to be a fake — a black, polymer replica pistol. “Unless you pick it up and pull the trigger, it looks like a real gun,” Vernon said. A week earlier, Hunter had been arrested a block from the Sunset Boulevard motel on suspicion of being under the influence of a narcotic.

lol hunter sr sure looked a crazy f@cker in the ring

i can see a bit of him in jrs fighting at times, though sr actually looked faster (though more erratic and prob less focused career wise)

Ha ha yeah very tragic. I only wish that every stinking robber would get that "tragedy"!

The most tragic thing about Bounty Hunter's death is that he was still working as a boxing trainer at the time and probably wouldnt have resorted to street crime if he wasnt trying to support his drug addiction.

But I have no problem with instant street justice for street criminals. Los Angeles has led the nation for the past 4-5 years in fatal OIS (Officer-Involved Shootings) with about 15-20 every year. NYC used to lead the nation in that (because they have 3 TIMES as many people as LA and 3 times as many cops), but since leftist NYC Mayor Bill DeBlasio took office in 2014 (on an anti-NYPD platform) he has earned a well-deserved reputation as soft on criminals but hard on cops.

[jamamb]

wait, so is more ois good or bad

[Best Coast]

wait, so is more ois good or bad

Neither one. Each individual OIS is a separate case. It depends on the individual circumstances. Most are justified (like the Mike Bounty Hunter case), some are not. Extremist groups like "Black Lives Matter" try to portray OIS as all unjustified but BLM was built on a lie. BLM first came to nationwide attention with the Michael Brown case in Ferguson, Missouri. The slogan that BLM came up with that started riots in Ferguson was "Hands up, dont shoot". Michael Brown's thuggish homeboys claimed Brown was shot with his hands up while he said "Dont shoot". (DOJ investigation showed Brown never had his hands up and never said "Dont shoot".)

Obama's Attorney General Eric Holder opened up an independent Federal DOJ grand-jury investigation on Brown's death. FBI interviewed all witnesses and did ballistics tests, medical forensic evidence, autopsy, etc. They discovered that Brown had first entered the cop's squad car and tried to wrestle the cop's gun away. When he was unable to get the cop's gun he left the vehicle and began walking away but then charged back toward the cop's squad car. That's when Brown was shot and killed and after the investigation was completed the cop in question Darren Wilson was not charged like BLM hoped he would be. By then nearly $6 million worth of destruction and damage had been done to neighborhoods and business in the predominantly black area. Those who suffered the most were the law-abiding black folks who stayed in their homes while BLM-inspired thugs rioted, looted and burned their neighborhood to the ground:

https://www.nationalreview.com/2014/12/ ... as-sowell/

Three different medical forensic experts — one representing Michael Brown’s parents — examined the physical facts. These facts included the autopsy results, Michael Brown’s DNA on the door of the police car and on the policeman’s gun, photographs of the bruised and swollen face of policeman Darren Wilson and the pattern of blood stains on the street where Brown was shot.

This physical evidence was hard to square with the loudly proclaimed assertions that Brown was shot in the back, or was shot with his hands up, while trying to surrender. But it was consistent with the policeman’s testimony.

Moreover, the physical facts were consistent with what a number of black witnesses said under oath, despite expressing fears for their own safety for contradicting what those in the rampaging mobs were saying.

The riots, looting, and setting things on fire that some in the media are treating as reactions to the grand jury’s decision not to indict the policeman, actually began long before the grand jury had begun its investigation, much less announced any decision.

Why some people insist on believing whatever they want to believe is a question that is hard to answer. But a more important question is: What are the consequences to be expected from an orgy of anarchy that started in Ferguson, Missouri and has spread around the country?

The first victims of the mob rampages in Ferguson have been people who had nothing to do with Michael Brown or the police. These include people — many of them black or members of other minorities — who have seen the businesses they worked to build destroyed, perhaps never to be revived.

But these are only the first victims. If the history of other communities ravaged by riots in years past is any indication, there are blacks yet unborn who will be paying the price of these riots for years to come.

Extremist groups like "Black Lives Matter" have little credibility with black Americans:
http://thehill.com/blogs/blog-briefing- ... ves-matter "Two out of three black people prefer the term 'all lives matter' to 'black lives matter,' according to a Rasmussen poll.

Only 31% of black people surveyed said that the statement 'black lives matter' most closely fits their own beliefs, compared to 64% who chose 'all lives matter."

[boxing_rocks]

Top 10 CW ? Maybe....
Top 20 HW ? I doubt it....
The victory against Gassiev ? Only by DQ...........

Then how you rate Hunters chances vs Lebedev and Dorticos?

Is Lebedev active at all ?
Dorticos, definitely.

I strongly doubt. Dorticos would stop Hunter.

[jamamb]

hunter would beat lebedev imo. den is probably there to be beaten now if he faces a good opponent. that austrailian guy he fought last year i thought won at least 3 rounds and gave him issues, though lebedev won clearly.

just got announced lebedev is fighting mike wilson btw. lebedev stopped some turk-german guy with a padded record the other month or two ago as well., so he is active.
