The obvious starter is Herol Graham. Hamed was a Brendan Ingle / Wincobank product, and was moulded in that style from the start of his career. iirc Ingle was mainly self-taught. Graham was the first...

Source? How about a deaths per number of participants comparison?
Scorecards are irrelevant in a fight that doesn't go the distance. Eubank was behind on the cards in his first fight with Benn, but he was clearly the main in charge from the mid point onwards.
...
I think it depends on what the underlying reasons are for his recent losses. If it's just a combination of lack of motivation and facing guys who turned out to be a lot better than expected, the...
Um, "King" of what exactly?? :confused:
Enzo's previous fight was at heavyweight and he came in at 195. IIRC the weight being a bone of contention prior to the Haye fight, as there was a fear Haye would be 20lbs or so heavier come fight...
It's not just his chin either. If Gomez can hurt Khan to the body, it doesn't bode well for his chances against Barrera.
Credit to Khan for taking the fight though. I think he has more cojones...
It's either a masterstroke or a fuck-up of monumental proportions.
Warren and Roach are not fools, and they obviously think they are catching a smaller, over the hill fighter at just the right...
As alluded to above, many people come on sites like this looking for fight links. It's not necessarily people blithely wandering around MMA sites hoping to avoid discussion about the fights.
That...
As per usual the BBC list conveniently forgets that there are actually weight divisions below bantamweight. With Calderon, Donaire, Montiel, Darchinian, Mijares, etc there are a lot of quality...
It's rare that you get a series where all of the fights are very good - you often get a stinker or two in there. For example, Ali-Frazier II and Leonard-Duran III weren't great fights.
In terms of...
When people talk about supposed "fixed" fights, they often talk about fights where the favourite/superior fighter wins. Fights aren't fixed for no reason; there has to be at least some kind of motive...
Amazing for a guy to win world titles at flyweight and lightweight. What's most impressive is how he has carried his power up through the divisions. Off the top of my head and I can only really think...
I think if you look purely at the matchmaking side of things, he is coming along nicely. In 2 and a half years he's went from 4 rounders through to 6/8/10 rounders, and then onto Commonwealth title...
Like Kainer says, take it with a pinch of salt until if/when there is an official announcement.
Angle is a decade removed from legit wrestling training, and his body is seriously, seriously...
Personally I think "not having a place on this forum" is harsh, and people should be allowed to express honestly held views.
That said, saying that you will never watch another female fight...
Aysen was overmatched, but it's not like she leapfrogged over a glut of more deserving fighters to get the fight based on her looks - afaik she was the only one willing to take the fight, and you...
Like anything else the success will depend on the quality of the fighters and fights.
There's been similar tournaments in America in the last few years, and most fights were uneventful decision...
For what's it worth, I thought the issue was excellent.
FO is far and away the best MMA mag out there IMO, but it can't be all things to all men. I don't think there's a lot wrong with how they do...
I'm glad he clarified who Randy Couture is. I was scratching my head for a second.
As an isolated clip it looks ridiculous. In the context of the fight it looked like Ken was trying to set up a leg lock of some kind.
I think when Oleg thought about it he was probably a bit relieved. It would have been tough fighting Tank if he had been extended in the semi. I've seen it suggested that Oleg knew about it, but it...
It's great to see Cahoon getting an opportunity to show what he can do in a high profile fight. He's paid his dues and is going to be a handful for any fighter (or toilet door) around.
I think...
It's not a proven fact that Khan has a weak chin. There isn't enough evidence to prove anything beyond a reasonable doubt one way or the other.
However, there are reasons to suspect that his chin...
Is Kam Atakuru available? I think their first fight deserves a rematch.
