Have you seen the Takao Sakurai destruction by El Puas, Z?

Sakurai was coming off a highly controversial (Rose had plenty of them) loss to Lionel Rose whom he managed to make him look like Sam Peter (which is an enormous feat) with his extremely fast footwork and classic textbook southpaw pure boxing.

And Olivares just crushed him with ease.
Those body shots were so brutal they conceived Chavez.

Rose-Sakurai is worth a look if you're into high skilled/fast paced/even faster commentary mysterious chessboxing'.

Haven't seen the full fight, just clips. But from the little I've seen, Rockabye looked destructive as fuck. Those body shots were nasty indeed.

Speaking of panamanians.


Lopez putting on a brilliant boxing display.

But Espadas doing what mexican do by staying there no matter what , never getting discouraged.

And when Lopez got tired and made a mistake Espadas was there to take advantage.

Felt bad for Lopez to see him lose after that performance.

Great comeback win for Espadas though.

I hope he can pull it together and get a good camp for this one.

They already forgot about Donaire.
Some panamanian slickster?
Only Kellerman would recognize him out of the entire US mainstream boxing media.

Good camp didn't help Moreno the last time he challenged for a title.

He better pray for goodness and mercy from god.

Cuz the judges clearly hate him.

Have you or @Flea Man ever seen this footage before of the legendary title fight contested barefoot, in the rain, on broken glass between Carruthers and Songkitrat. I remember Flea talking about it but never saw clips before. At 35 sec you can see the canvas almost has puddles on it. We have the astute boxing historian Mike Tyson to thank for the footage via his youtube channel.


Edit - Didn't realize Iron Mike posted it less than 24 hours ago lol I just randomly searched for info about that fight and don't even know why. Maybe me and Tyson are soulmates?

I read about it, saw pics but don't think I saw this video before.

When men were men.

Kickboxer-style.

Tyson does know his baxing.

Always liked his Hop-Mercado 2 commentary.

He sounded so Michael Jacksonish.

Almost wished I was a kid.

We all are.

If you don't like Mike, you're worse than animals.

Zamora.

The Julian Jackson of the lower weights.
No exaggerations.

Even their skillsets/strengths-weaknesses are somewhat similar.

Had he been fighting today, he would've went 100 (100KO's)-0 with ease.

And surprisingly enough for a Mexican he was also an excellent amateur.

Have you seen these two fights, Z?

Zamora's 1972 Olympic finals loss:

And this pre-title shoot-out with an evil filipino ladyboy:

Notice Zamora's sportsmanship at 2:40.

I haven't seen the first video. Thanks, friend :good

You totally nailed it with the Jackson comparison. Saying Zamora could hit hard is an understatement really. Hardest Mexican puncher p4p perhaps??
