He didn't look Joshua bad as he turned a 40 to 1 rout into a 50/50 pick'em Rocky fight. Prenga will be kicking himself for years as he was a combination away from causing possibly the biggest upset in heavyweight boxing history(bigger than Douglass vs Tyson as Douglass had beaten a few top ten...
Yes Fury vs Wach and Joshua vs Prenga headline the weekend.
Fury vs Wach should not be sanctioned as Wach has drifted down to a human punch bag without stiff resistance. I question if any serious commission would sanction this bout for anything more than an exhibition. Joshua is a prohibitive...
That's funny I heard scouts have stated this about this position as you need to be instinctive and not cerebral but interestingly coaches wanted more cerebral guys for fullbacks due to blocking assignments and picking up blitzes.
Yes similar to the Australian Open in tennis travelling to Europe was a pain as it took a month each way and the player had to adjust to the time zone and didn't practice for a month. In the case of Australian Open it was 2 months each way and there was no prize money to until the late 60's so...
In the first half you could cue up the French Army surrendering without a shot jokes....
In the second half it seemed like L'Equipe Africaine actually decided to try and nearly pulled it out of the bag until they surrendered a late penalty shot and the score went back to a 2 goal English...
Didn't see that one as these records were set during the dirty EPO era but in recent years Ingebrigtsen and Goose have been dancing around the record so I guess this isn't that shocking in retrospective.
I wonder if Hicham's 1500 record is now vulnerable too.
This week is another slow week as the bronze medal match and of course the World Cup final dominate the weekend. It seems like the Pacheco headlined card is devoid of White fighters and the other North American based card on ProBox TV only has Argentine Guido Schramm as a B side opponent...
Yes England went into a soccer version of a prevent defense. It also seemed like they had dead legs late in the game. It was obvious Argentina was going to score with the chances they had late but the extra time goal was Argentina wanting to win the game and not take their chances with penalty...
He's a venture capitalist who has given seed money to various start ups that have blown up and become billion dollar companies. He also had his original company bought out to become a venture capitalist. With the current valuation of various clubs these are the only people that can ever buy a...
He essentially stole his purse as you are supposed to disclose injuries before a fight. He will probably never fight again for the UFC. I found he looked old and jaded through out the build up. The gambling odds reflected as Holloway was a healthy favorite at -280 to win.
As I speculated Joyce was no match for the Russian prospect. He took a worse beating at points than when he mysteriously surrendered. Hopefully he doesn't see the inside of the ring again as a fighter as heart and grit was the only thing he had and now even that is gone.
As for Suslenkov he...
France has much less integration in their society and many Blacks are desperate and if they have a lick of talent gamble with their future by trying to go pro by attending sports academies. They also have refugees that show up to be scouted by the sports academies and then get naturalized too...
If he could jump that in competition we could have a world record watch for the oldest male record on the books. Really nobody has been close since Pedroso had an annulled world record due to a faulty wind gauge and even that attempt was in the mid 90's.
Even the European world record hasn't...
It looks the WBA balked on the shot Joyce as a last minute replacement for Yoka who himself was a fairly weak challenger. While Kidiru is low profile and rather mediocre he doesn't look like a character that Boris Karloff or Bela Lugosi played in horror movies and Joyce has been looking...
