Pacquiao Humiliates Aging De La Hoya
De La Hoya’s beating on this night draws in my mind comparisons to Julio Caesar Chavez’s 1996 beating at the hands of De La Hoya. If any fight solidified the era of The Golden Boy, that fight was it. And now if any fight solidifies a new era in boxing beginning, this one is it.

Sunday, November 23, 2008
After two tough losses to Kelly Pavlik, many questioned whether Taylor’s career had peaked at the age of 30 and whether a man who was among the best pound-for-pound still had “it.” Last Saturday night, his dominating decision win over Jeff Lacy proved that Pavlik was a bump in the road for the Arkansas native.

Saturday, November 22, 2008
In only his second career fight in the U.S., Calzaghe again wowed the American crowd with another technical marvel of a performance out boxing Roy Jones Jr. so bad that many have now called into question Jones’ future as well.

Saturday, November 1, 2008
Every time you think Bernard Hopkins is done, he does something to prove you wrong. Such was the case two weeks ago when Hopkins rebounded after a lackluster showing in a decision loss to Joe Calzaghe with one of the most dominating performances of his career annihilating current Middleweight champion Kelly Pavlik—unbeaten before the fight—a man seventeen years younger than Hopkins when they met in Atlantic City.

Monday, October 20, 2008
When Pride Fighting Championships was bought by Zuffa Inc. and the Fertita brothers in 2007, nowhere was it felt more than in Japan. This was not just because Pride was based in Japan, but because the country had just lost its biggest MMA promotion; to put it into context, think about where MMA in America [...]

Thursday, October 9, 2008
The beautiful thing about this upset is it did what most MMA purists and people who take MMA seriously wanted to see happen at one point: it exposed Kimbo’s lack of experience in MMA. While this seems redundant because it was only Kimbo’s fourth MMA fight, the majority of people who know of Kimbo add his Youtube fights with his MMA fights thus projecting the invincible myth that was Kimbo until Saturday night.
