In the boxing forums many -if not most- of the posters take a win, and especially a loss, as their own. In other words, they take it manly. Today, some sore and distraught are sniveling that GGG had smaller gloves. I'll note here that fighters may select their own gloves as long as the glove is...

It doesn't take much to get a post deleted over there. Sometimes anything short of praise of Africans is deemed as unworthy.

Mago hasn't fought more than 4 rounds with anyone in his entire boxing career. It showed. Still has to learn pace and heat. He could have picked someone else to put some rounds in with, or sparred in longer sessions, but, oh well, can't win 'em all. He'll learn now. GGG did some good heavy bag...

Alright, the fights tonight should be fun. I think these fights are easy to predict so here are mine. Abdusalamov is a true hard hitting heavyweight. He's in shape and determined. Perez may be in shape, and equally determined, but he's puffed up full of muscle. Perez is not a true heavyweight...

So Wolf, how do we know that is a knockdown and not a slip? On the mainstream boxing forums there would be a parade of defenders writing that off as a slip. I'll tell you how: look how Wilder's feet never...

Ha! You wrote that while I was editing my own post. I found it out on Boxingscene.

I don't think many readers at Caste Football really know who Lomachenko really is. I don't think his abilities are truly known. Just take a look at the following numbers. If you are black, or other white haters, and reading this, you may want to sit down because you'll probably pass out in...

An incredible athlete.

Probably the hardest puncher for his weight class in the world, Sergey Kovalev, my favourite fighter lately, is back in action on November 30 at the Pepsi Centre in Montreal. This time the victim will be Ismayl Sillakh (half African half European). Unless Kovalev suffers some odd injury (like...

Very good observation Carcharias. You also posted that Beterbiev thread. He is another Easterner who started off with a real, professional fighter. Yes, no one should criticize these men of building inflated records like Wilder.

That article is typical parroting written by the envious. The arguments made in it are as porous as a colander. Here are a few rebuttals, have fun that writer's nonsense, don't fret over it. 1) Black boxers didn't suddenly disappear, but white boxers from around the world, especially from the...

I don't assess Povetkin having a one-punch knock-out power. He's dangerous in volume up close. A few rights from Wladimir would have toppled him at those crucial moments when Povetkin was hurt. I saw Wladimir letting him go. By the way, Povetkin did not need to know his adversary was playing cat...

I've been reading the boxing forums and its not just me telling you Wlad fought like it was a tough sparring session. Where were the sustained, vicious attacks of old? Wlad didn't really want to knock Povetkin out. He just wanted to take the fight away from the judges. If you read the statement...

No one knows yet to be sure. Not his manager nor Wladimir. But if he is going to fight Pulev it had better be sooner rather than later. If he waits too long Pulev will out-point him and the dregs will start their banter.

Tall boxers tie up and hold shorter boxers when the shorter boxer gets in punching range. This way they smother them and retain advantage. Its called being smart. Anyone may look at fight films from 50-80 years ago and you'll see it. No controversy there. Leaning is a tactic which heavier...

Stay calm. There's nothing wrong with Wladimir. You guys may want to look a little past what happened on the mat and take a closer look and the venue and the opponent. Wolf said: "And I'm a Povetkin fan now." Hmm, you're getting closer to understanding what happened this evening in Moscow. Yes...

The Fury vs Haye fight is purportedly re-scheduled for February 8, 2014. That's almost half a year away! There's not as much support for Haye around the net as one would think for Haye. Boxing fans are smelling a rat here. However some may think about this fight, Haye's no cinch to win...

Well Wolf, its hard to say from whom or how he got it. He won't say -obviously- because its embarrassing for him. If he got it from a sparring partner that man must be paid to stfu. If Fury ever finds out you know he's going to go on forever and loud about it all.
