Maybe Lemaitre could do with a year off? I'm not a sprint expert but Guliyev had a couple years hiatus in there and now he's back and running his best 200 ever. You guys think time off would be bad for Lemaitre? It seems like at times he momentarily gets that form he used to have all the time...

I think so too. Mohammedi has a few somewhat impressive wins, but hasn't beaten anyone above a B level really. Kovalev has a complete arsenal and should get this guy out of there inside 6-7 rounds.

I also agree with the above sentiments. Chris algeiri was a world champion kick boxer and got picked apart by Pacquiao. Boxing is so specific and takes years to develop the muscle memory and reflexes. MMA is a great sport but you can compensate for weaknesses because there are multiple facets...

It's ironic that the NFL is supported by middle class whites, yet does everything in its power to make the league entirely black. Just my opinion, but the NFL is going to take a big hit in the next 15-20 years. Baby boomers will continue to support the league because it was much whiter when...

Those guys are far from my heroes pal. But, they are the fastest sprinters in the world currently. Just because he trains with then doesn't mean he has to dope up like them. This is common sense man, don't be so stubborn. :-)

IF Fury is going to have success, he will need to pinpoint his shots and not just jump and lunge in like Haye or Jennings did for example. He will actually need to be fit and keep a high pace for the entire fight. If he can do these things it will be an entertaining fight!

Let me clarify. I don't follow closely where these guys train. I would go wherever tyson gay or justin Gatlin or Mike Rodgers train and start training with them. I always thought they train in Florida. Other option would be to head over to Jamaica and train with bolt and powell and company...

You can rationalize it however you want, but Vicaut is now the champ in France, not Lemaitre. Lemaitre has made no progress lately. You can argue that his coach isn't the culprit and maybe you are right, who knows. But just looking at it with common sense, something isn't working. A change...

The turd Cain is a decent fighter but always looks out of shape to me. I know, as evidenced by Fedor, looks don't mean everything, but he undoubtedly wouldn't have had held the title for this long if he actually had to fight multiple challengers. White knew he had JDS's number and probably was...

Ward is one of the most boring and dull fighters out there. Has decent skill but fights all defensive. Maybe he will get caught after his lay off. Love to see Kovalev fight this bum.

I have noticed that as some guys mature, they get thicker calves. Even without necessarily training them, they seem to get bigger. Not sure if this is the case with Lemaitre. In any case, he is still running 10.1x so with a good trainer he should be able to get back below 10. Also if he...

I was just thinking about this the other day as I have a son who is quickly approaching adult age. I will never encourage or send him in the direction of the military. He has zero interest in it, thankfully. This whole "military love" blitz the past few years by the NFL is all just designed...

I thoroughly enjoyed watching Perez get a beating. I wish he would have stayed on his feet a little longer so Povetkin could have pummeled his ugly ape mug a bit more. Povetkin was punching very hard and Wilder is no doubt nervous. I was never impressed with Stiverne, but he was game and...

man it doesn't get any worse than that. At least most women attempt to get thin for their wedding day! That guy screams out beta. HE, is exactly why so many view whites as unathletic and slow. You would think through natural selection, males like him would get weeded out. Unfortunately that...

I thought the same thing. He looks pretty fat and it's gotta be difficult fighting much bigger/taller heavyweights. He's listed at 5'10 so he may have some success at cruiserweight if he can get down to 200 without losing too much strength. He was stopped by Charles Martin a few years ago who...

Wlad probably could have finished Jennings if he wanted to step on the gas but he is too smart for that at this stage in the game and why risk injury or standing there trading shots against an inferior opponent. I think he should KO Wilder in spectacular fashion, then retire.

Here's a recruiting article where Mathews talks about how he wants to attend college for track and also get an education. It's refreshing to see athletes not get sucked into the football pipeline where he would probably sit on a depth chart somewhere. He seems interested in the decathlon but...

Jonah Mathews out of Fife, WA has the 2nd fastest 100m and 200m this year in the state (10.65, 21.54). I don't know the wind on either. Looks like he plays cornerback and runningback as well. Here's a link to the track and field site...

I will go with Manny by UD. If he out throws Mayweather by a lot to a little there's no way he won't be able to win. I don't believe Mayweather has the power to KO Manny. I know the ref will be looking to protect Mayweather, but Manny does most of his damage with the shots he throws on his...

I remember a while back in a different thread someone posted a picture of the starting XI from the 2002 USMNT team. There were something like 8 whites, 2 blacks and what looked like 1 hispanic. That's a team I can root for. I believe that team also made it to the quarter finals which is the...
