Righthand straight down the pipe and Duran got felled like a tree. I absolutely loved Hearns as a kid. If he'd been able to stay the course in the first fight he'd have won that by a landslide because Ray was well down on the cards. He definitely got robbed against Leonard in the rematch though. The documentary series on them, 'The Kings' is one of the best boxing docs ever if you haven't seen it. They were all brilliant in that period. I loved the four of them but especially Tommy who will always be one of my top 5 favourite fighters of all time. "You're blowing it, kid," the famous line from Dundee to SRL in the corner before the 11th, I think. You have to give Sugar credit for snatching defeat from the jaws of victory though. I remember Manny talking abput the Hagler fight years after, and how in the changing room before the fight he suddenly seen someone massaging the legs of Hearns and he was mortified because that relaxes the muscles, hence, him having no legs after 3 rnds.

avfc1982am Posted March 31 Share Posted March 31 Wardleys nose is broke already. Think he needs to step on the gas because he's getting slapped with the jab and uppercut. Clarke doing well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

avfc1982am Posted March 31 Share Posted March 31 Wardley's gassed struggling to breath through the nose. I think Clarke's got this tbh if he stays composed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shouldn't they stop it now. His nose is in pieces. Surely the Doc would say no more?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OutByEaster? Posted March 31 Moderator Share Posted March 31 Wardley is painting this ring with the blood from his nose - it's going to get slippy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OutByEaster? Posted March 31 Moderator Share Posted March 31 It's a Jackson Pollock. The stoppages to have it looked at might help him find his breath. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not many heavyweights around today who don't gass out. Fury and Usyk are maybe the exceptions. The days when heavyweights were sculpted from granite.
