Hmmm...I think this would be exciting. Who takes it?
Tua for me. Better chin sees him through.

Can we have a Corrie Sanders armistice on this forum? At least for one week?

I'm not a member of the cult of Corrie, may he rest in peace. I do think this fight would be a fun one, though. No more Corrie threads from me for a good while, though; two will do.

I can't believe it, either. I never saw it like this when he was alive.

How is it kissing his ass putting him in mythical match-ups that nobody thinks he can win? Tua by KO somewhere between rounds 7-10. Would be a fun fight though.

Sanders was actually a very decent fighter.

200 amateur fights, with something like only 3 losses. (I speak under correction here)

Problem was, as a younger man he loved rugby also, and was a decent flanker.

This lead to knee problems and surgery that impacted on his roadwork and fitness later.

He certainly was a natural fighter, with blistering handspeed to go with a natural killer instinct.

Oh, what might have been....

All the tools.....etc....etc....

And people are judging too much for what happened with Rahman and Vitali, when he already had had a very long career, and like you say suffered from injuries.

No they are saying he's garbage. Which seems a bit off really. Read the Sanders/Moorer thread.

I've never said Corrie Sanders was garbage, he's a naturally talented fighter who carried a very big punch in his left hand no doubt about it, but he's certainly not an elite fighter by any means.

Sorry , only just seen this after starting another thread involving. However, I do think there is a bit more milege to be gained from Sanders in mythical match ups. I'm enjoying reading the debate. :D
