At the age of 22 and son of a boxing legend, Tim Tszyu was fighting veteran and former champion Tony Harrison for the WBO interim Junior Middleweight championship.  Tony Harrison flew down to Australia to fight for one more shot at the title 잊지말기로해 다운로드.

The opening round belonged to Harrison as he dominated the round with just his jab as he connected on 12 jabs but from this point, it was all Tim Tszyu.   In the second round, Tszyu connected with the right hand and uppercuts while Harrison landed his own right hand, but the harder punches were delivered by Tszyu.  The third round was Tszyu as he landed 14 punches with 11 power punches.  Harrison still had an effective jab, but Tszyu walked him down and forced him on the rope where he landed a big right that stunned Harrison 다운로드.

Harrison jabs no longer had much impact on Tszyu but like in the previous two rounds, Tszyu punches were the most impactful and after first four rounds, I had the bout 39-37. 

In the fifth and sixth round saw Tszyu continue to pressure Harrison and force him to the ropes.  Tszyu landing powder shots whereas Harrison continued to jab but not much else.  The seventh round saw Harrison landing  his own power shots but Tszyu absorbed them while landing his own power shots content-disposition 다운로드.

By Tom Donelson / Member Boxing Writers Association of America (BWWA)

Jarrett Hurd was a junior Middleweight champion five years ago with three belts in his possession but he has now lost two straight bouts at the Middleweight division, his latest loss to Armando Resendiz.  Resendiz had one lost to Marco Hernandez and with only 15 fights under his belt, he is not yet a leading fighter in the Middleweight division 다운로드.

Resendiz started off fast as he took the first two rounds with aggressive approach as Hurd got off to a slow start. Hurd won the third and fourth round and the fifth round was close but after that, it was all Resendiz.  I had the fight 48 to 47 for Resendiz but it could easily have been Hurd up by one round.  Compubox showed why Resendiz won as he dominated the sixth through the ninth before the fight was stopped.  He battered Hurd and while Hurd landed his punches but there were no real damage being done by the former champ.  Resendiz landed nearly 140 punches over the last four rounds before the fight was stoppage.  Hurd landed plenty of punches and overall he landed 228 punches and was slightly more accurate with 41% landing versus 36% for Resendiz. 

Resendiz landed an average of 31 punches, but Hurd averaged 26 punches landed so it wasn’t a defensive masterpiece, but it was an action bout 오버로드 13권 다운로드. The fight was stopped due to severe laceration of the lip and Hurd lost his second straight.   Hurd was one of the best Junior Middleweight five years ago but at the age of 32 and now a Middleweight, Hurd is not a Middleweight contender google play service.

Thomas Hearns (40-1 / 34 by KO) for the ‘undisputed’ middleweight championship of the world at Caesars Palace, Las Vegas.

Hagler - 1

Hagler, normally a slow starter, came out at the opening bell pinning Hearns to the ropes 엔트리 코딩 다운로드.

“Somebody Up There Likes Me”

This 1956 movie, directed by Robert Wise, is based on the autobiography by boxer Rocky Graziano 다운로드. Starring Paul Newman as Rocky and Pier Angeli as his wife, it also features appearances by Sal Mineo and Steve McQueen.

As a child, his father made him fight for the entertainment of adults in the neighborhood. He soon developed a talent for knocking down anybody that stood in his way 다운로드. In and out of reform schools, Rocky was on a fast track to the graveyard or the penitentiary. If you thought his stint in the Army might straighten him out, think again 지오메트리대쉬 컴퓨터 다운로드.

Unfamiliar with the world of pro boxing, Rocky replies, “I don’t need no cup, I’ll drink out of the bottle.”  He then proceeds to knock the other fighter out with his sledgehammer right hand.

The Greatest Middleweights of All Time

Harry Greb – Painting By Damien Burton

By David Martinez / Boxing Historian / dmboxing.com

Over the years I have rated fighters using many different criteria 다운로드. Boxers from a specific country, and boxers in the different weight divisions, have to be the two main categories for my rankings.

Of all the weight classes through the years the one that has changed or been revised for me are the middleweights 천상비 다운로드. It is clustered with greatness from the first champions – Nat Langham, Tom Chandler, George Rooke, Mike Donovan, and Nonpareil Jack Dempsey – to the present day champions – Canelo Alvarez (WBA), Jermall Charlo (WBC), Gennady Golovkin (IBF), Demetrius Andrade (WBO), and Ryota Murata (WBA Regular) 다운로드.

My rating of boxers is based on the height, peak, prime, pinnacle of their careers. Who-beats-whom at different stages of careers isn’t a factor in my “pound-for-pound” formula 쿠로코의 농구 2기 자막 다운로드.

There are many situations where one fighter loses to another, and I actually rate the losing fighter with the greater “pound-for-pound” ranking at different times of each of their careers 덱스트업로드 다운로드.

Here are a few examples, and these fighters lost twice to their opponents: Tunney beat Dempsey, Saddler beat Pep, Jeffries beat Fitzsimmons, Holyfield beat Tyson, Pryor beat Arguello, Herrera beat Olivares, Barkley beat Hearns, De La Hoya beat Chavez, Bowe beat Holyfield, Harada beat Jofre, and it goes on!

Theodore “Tiger” Flowers was the first African-American to become middleweight champion 다운로드. Born on August 5, 1895 in Camille, Georgia, Flowers’ nickname, “The Georgia Deacon”, was most appropriate because he always carried his own Bible with him 다운로드. A deeply religious man, he would recite a passage from Psalm 144 before every bout.

Flowers began his professional career in 1918 at the age of twenty-three and was actually introduced to boxing while working at the shipyards in Philadelphia during World War I when he wandered into a gym that was owned by former light heavyweight champion Philadelphia Jack O’Brien 현대자동차 서체 다운로드.
