In reply to Post #533 Same here mate, fantastic era was that.
Edit - Thomas Hearns was my favourite.
Also back in the day what a fight Azuma Nelson v Jeff Fenech was and as the commentator said ‘you could put these two in a phonebox’ such was toe to toe stuff.

In reply to Post #532 Mayweather, different class imho
Duran gave him the beating of his life first time around. There were 3 other good fighters in that era, Hearns, Hagler and Duran which made it a bit of a golden era for me

Leonard v Mayweather is it happening and who wins if so?.
Edit - sorry, just quickly seen a piece which appears to be ‘hypothetical’ who would win.
Leonard must be touching 60 now surely.

In reply to Post #530 To be fair Gerry his fight against Lemur I thought was absolutely superb, true Ingle style, Lemur couldn’t get a glove on him, boxed his head off
I don’t understand why, I though he had it cracked, he looked unbeatable or at least deserved a Canelo or GGG test
|

In reply to Post #529 yes wonder what he is going to be like ?
since splitting with Ingle and training under Ben Davison and going up in weight as you say he was a bit of a plonker with the junkie woman that cost him a shed load of money in a fine

In reply to Post #527 I will be interested to see where Saunders goes after this, talk about wasted talent
I see Demetrius Andrade is eyeing up Canelo or GGG, unless him and Saunders actually meet this time

In reply to Post #527 Not a bad weekend gerry, although quite how competitive the wilder and saunders fights will be. Russell Jr fight should be a good one though. Massive step up for Joyce, be interesting to see how that one goes

In reply to Post #519 Yeah I can't see wilder or fury being around much longer, wilder has been very close to being beaten a few times over the last couple of years, fury sounds like he's losing interest again. Agree about canelo, although I had ggg winning the first. Crazy to think he had something like 20 Pro fights before he turned 19
