Vazquez Edges Marquez In Instant Classic, Part Three

By

According to Wikipedia, a legend (Latin, legenda, "things to be read") is a story of unknown origin describing plausible but extraordinary past events. Anyone who saw last night’s third brawl between Israel Vazquez and Rafael Marquez, knows that legendary is a perfect word to describe the fight and the entire trilogy. Sure, I predicted Israel […]

Vazquez Vs. Marquez III: Hard To Pick A Winner

By

I am having a very difficult time picking the winner of the super bantamweight rubber match between Israel Vazquez and Rafael Marquez this Saturday. If you want to understand why, look no further than the video footage below.   Sometimes my gut feeling weighs heavily on my big fight predictions. I am trying to lose […]

Wladimir Klitschko Will Stop Sultan Ibragimov

By

Who will reign supreme as the baddest man on the planet after this Saturday’s heavyweight title unification bout between Wladimir Klitschko and Sultan Ibragimov? To me, this is a somewhat easy prediction to make. Based on what I have seen from the two fighters, especially in terms of their competition, this looks like a "blowout-in-the-making" […]

Pavlik Beats Taylor Again, But Differently This Time

By

First off, let’s give props to both men for giving us another entertaining fight this weekend. Kelly Pavlik (33-0, 29 KOs) versus Jermain Taylor (27-2-1, 17 KOs) ended with Pavlik’s arm being raised, as I expected. However, very few people believed that the fight would end with Pavlik winning via a tactical decision. I assumed […]

Pavlik-Taylor II Rematch Will Yield Similar Result

By

I have already shared my tips on successfully predicting boxing match winners, but as the Jermain Taylor vs. Kelly Pavlik super middleweight rematch nears, I just realized that I forgot to include an additional tip. That is, if two fighters have already met, and one fighter has knocked the other fighter out, it would be […]

The Punisher Gets Punished: Quintana Vexes Williams

By

I told you that Carlos Quintana (25-1, 19 KOs) would expose Paul the Punisher Williams (33-1, 24 KOs) for the fraud that he is! I am just kidding – my prediction of Williams stopping Quintana late in the fight was way off. Not only did Paul Williams lose, he was pretty much handled over twelve brisk rounds.  On my unofficial […]

Paul Williams Will Hand Carlos Quintana Loss #2

By

WBO welterweight belt holder Paul the Punisher Williams (33-0, 24 KOs) puts his undefeated record on the line against Carlos Quintana (24-1, 19 KOs) this Saturday. Fresh off of a defining win against perennial contender Antonio Margarito, Williams is seeking to further cement his claim as the best welterweight in the world, not named Mayweather […]

They Win, We Lose: Mayweather Vs. De La Hoya Again?

By

I earlier wrote that the first De La Hoya-Mayweather bout was bad for boxing.  Now that it appears there is a rematch in place for later this year, I’ll simply reiterate my earlier claim.  Before I trash this potential matchup, I have to acknowledge that for both men, the fight is a no-brainer, financially at least.  […]

Looking For Boxing Equipment And Gear?

By

As you probably know, Century and Everlast are two of the strongest players in the boxing equipment industry. However, you don’t necessarily have to go to their sites to get their products or others’. As a matter of fact, the open distribution of the Web makes it very easy to find whatever your heart desires, […]

Legend Falls: Felix Trinidad Dominated By Roy Jones

By

As I predicted in my previous post, Roy Jones, Jr. started slowly but ultimately handled Felix Tito Trinidad fairly easily. The fight ended up being a high-stakes sparring session, with Jones playing the lead. The only surprise was how Jones executed his game plan. As he had done at many points of his career, Jones […]
