Re: The Boxing Palace's Greatest Ever Lightweight Tournament (Elite 8)
these are some good fights, let me tell you what. i think that this is the best tourney so far as far as match ups go.
duran-gans was a great boxer in his time. he did things that were way ahead of his time but would be no match for duran and his relentlessness.
leonard-canzoneri has fought every type of fighter you could think of and fought such a high quality opposition. it would have been a great boxing match with leonards skill coming out on top.
armstrong-williams is a great fighter. he would have thrown everything at armstrong coming in and landing some hard shots. i could definitely see an upset but i think at the end of the day, armstrong fights through the beginning of the fight down on the scorecards and wears down williams and KOs him.
whitaker-ortiz would be very game, but i just dont think that his style works too well for sweet pea. i think that it looks a lot like the chavez fight. ortiz would win some rounds, but sweet pea would box beautifully to a UD.
