Your unpopular Boxing opinion..... Empty Your unpopular Boxing opinion.....

Post by Adam D Wed Nov 16, 2011 8:05 pm

This might go down as the worst idea ever with you lot but fortune favours the brave and all that....

One of the other sections has a thread where people post something they truly believe in but goes against popular opinion. In other words, let us know something outlandish which you believe to be true.

Dont make them up and remember the house rules before you go and tear people apart for their post - remember its their opinion and they are entitled to it.

So for example, you might think that Manny won the fight on Saturday comfortably or that Tyson v Bruno had the best opening round ever - let us hear about it and don't be ashamed! Share with your secrets with us all......

Remember - dont post things just to get a reaction. Only post things you actually believe in.

Off you go!

I believe that Floyd Mayweather Jr lost to Jose Castillo quite clearly first time round.

I also believe that Lennox Lewis beats any heavyweight in history other than Muhammad Ali and possibly George Foreman.

Jack Sharkey could have, and should have, been remembered as a genuinely great heavyweight had his discipline and attitude matched his physical gifts and boxing talent.

Not sure if this is controversial or unpopular but I actually think Primo Carnera could fight. I also think De La Hoya is on the whole massively over rated.

I actually like Amir Khan.

John Conteh should have been greatest British boxer of all time.

Jeffries wouldn't last two rounds with Herbie Hide.

Oddly enough Waingro seemed to rate Marciano whereas azania seemed to rate Dempsey. They could probably have a pretty good argument if put together.

Not just D4, archbritishchris suggested it as well when they were both maniacally defending the decison to fight Margarito. Of course, D4 denied he said it even when presented with documentary evidence of him saying it.

Back to the topic - Although I rate Joe Louis higher as a heavyweight, I think that Tunney would beat him.

Primetime is a quality channel with great pundits who give a great insight into each fight they show. They do not need to go HD as they are just brilliant at everything they do and the £15 to watch the likes of Khan vs Judah is an absolute bargain.

guys - this thread was supposed to be about stuff you actually believed Laugh

In all seriousness - this thread could be excellent if we keep the silly comments away and actually justify why you actually feel strongly about something against the general consensus OK
