The last I heard, Jakubowski was going to have two fights and then retire. And he fought once since then that I know of, but I haven't heard anything about him fighting again. Did I miss something? Is he retired now? Or does he still have one more fight?

I THINK HE SHOULD FIGHT MACHO CAMACHO AND THEN RETIRE.

Taylor is a joke. Yes he gave Hopkins two good fights, but didn't bet him. Gave Winky allot of problems in the middle of the rim, but didn't beat him. I think that they are trying to build boxing around Taylor & they don't want him to loose. I can understand Hopkins didn't do real good the first fight, but the second was better. For a man to say that he did anything or he can do anything, there is no show. Why would Taylor say that he's ok with the draw. That tell you that he didn't win.

I just think that's De la Hoya's way of saying either you want to fight me or you don't. I don't think Floyd is a stupid man. He has to know that De la Hoya is a drawing power and he knows that Oscar holds the cards in his favor as far as negotiations go, but he has to also try to make the best deal possible for himself in the process. And i certainly agree with Lovely Lady Vette's assessment that Floyd needs De la Hoya more because Oscar's legacy is already intact, we already know that he is a great fighter who fought just about every significant fighter from 130 to 160 in his career. Floyd is trying to get where Oscar already is, but in terms of De la Hoya fighting one more fight as he has stated that he wants to do, he also needs Floyd because that's really the only fight left in his career that the public is hungry for and he knows that. Oscar is not a stupid man either. I'm not saying that a rematch with Felix Trinidad wouldn't sell, but which fight do you think the public would much rather see? I guarantee it would be against Floyd. As far as the fight itself goes, i've said all along on this forum that i think De la Hoya would be Floyd's biggest threat because he's naturally bigger and has the hand speed and ring savvy to give Floyd lots of trouble. Right now it's a pick-em fight in my opinion. And i understand that a lot of people just don't like Floyd and refuse to give him any credit for the good fighters he has already beaten, but i'll stick to my guns and say he's still the best in the sport.

I agree with you completely. BJ dominated Hughes so much it HAD to be a shock to Mr. H. Matt usually picks up his opponant and slams them to the mat on the other side of the Octagon. But no matter HOW hard he tried, he couldn't manhandle Penn.\n\nWhile it looked like BJ just ran out of steam in the 3rd round, it has been documented in a number of places that what really happened was that his ribs had separated. He said he knew he couldn't just "give up", but he couldn't take any blows to the ribs for obvious reasons. He immediately tried to get Hughes into a submission hold. Had it not been for the bell/time limit, I truly believe Hughes would have tapped out to Penn in the 2nd round.\n\nFYI, BJ says he would love to come back to the UFC again and Dana White has invited him back sometime in 2007, once he completely heals up.\n\nI'd love to see another Penn/Hughes fight. \n\nAnd as for the upcoming Hughes/St. Pierre fight, well, I'm not too sure that St. Pierre will have the key to putting Hughes away. We can only hope so though because, as you stated, Hughes is getting just a bit cocky lately.\n\nIt'll be interesting. I'll be watching, THAT'S for sure.

He'll get a mention alright but he doesn't have that 'aura' that we associate with Marciano.\n\nPS; I remember there was a heavyweight (or light heavy weight) who went something like 48-0, was it Michael Spinks, before he stepped up for another fight and lost? you can give me the answer in email or IM.

I don't know what going on with Scott Harrison recently he seems to have lost the plot. I can't see him being mentally ready to fight on December 9th and its probably in his best interests to not fight and be stripped of the title. Nicky Cook is no joke and i would favour him to beat Harrison at his best even though it would be close, but if they fight on the 9th i think Cook will win easily due to Harrison not being mentally or physically ready.

I find that not only his voice has changed, but his style as well.  And this seemed to happen at about the same time which would be circa Scarface.  I dunno.  His choice of characters have been the rough n' tumble type for a while now (Scarface, Heat, The Rookie, Glen Garry Glenross, The Devil's Advocate) so maybe he matched his voice with the characters or he is choosing those characters for personal reasons and he moves toward that voice.  I don't know, he rarely gives interviews so I don't know what he sounds like outside of a movie.

Mark Calloway is extremely proud and defensive of his mania streak so i doubt it will ever happen. If it does, it will be a retirement type stipulation against the next phenom.\n\nThink the deadman will be with us a long time yet, his matches are few and far between and tend to be less physical and lower impact than they used to be so he is obviously on a self preservation mission.

i think they do. i hate to think that the UFC is going or will go the "WWE" route. (Let's keep it real fellas) Anybody who watched "The Ultimate Fighter" felt the extreme animosity between these two. Shamrock is a complete fool. I never thought that Tito would end up displaying more maturity than Ken. How can he possibly think he can beat Tito? Does he even remember the last time?

Pancho ~\n               In my opinion, I never thought of Hopkins as anything more than a good fighter trying to define his legacy by fighting blown up Jr. Middleweights (Trinidad and De La Hoya) and showed horrible sportsmanship when beaten twice by a younger, faster and stronger natural Middleweight (Taylor)\n\n               There's two things that Hopkins would need to beat Maskaev and he doesn't have or ever possesed at any point in his career Speed and Power. Hopkins doesn't have the speed necessary to get in and out and avoid being hit with a devestating shot. Hopkins doesn't have the power to keep the much bigger and stronger Maskaev off of him.\n\n               Maskaev hits like a mule at any stage of the fight, his power is forever present and he is always dangerous. There's two things that Maskaev does extremely well but doesn't get credit for. He uses his jab very well with good accuracy and he cuts the ring off, better than most of the bigger heavyweights out there. Maskaev also has a decent chin and would be able to take anything a much smaller and weaker Hopkins would have to offer.\nMaskaev has never been completely healthy for any of his past 10 fights, but his back is feeling much better and his training has been going very well in the Poconos for his upcoming fight and he claims he's healthy again.\n\n       If this fight were ever to happen look for Maskaev to stop Hopkins in less the seven rounds. Hopkins would never be in the fight after the 3rd round. The state of the Heavyweight division is indeed the worst it's ever been, but it's not that bad where a blown up Middleweight who could never punch and has little or no speed could take the title from a heavyweight who can punch and wouldn't tolerate any rough stuff. \n\n       Thanks for the question Pancho.

Retire. He is a pioneer but is no match for the fighters in the UFC today. If he is a real man he would retire, admit that the game has changed and bow out gracefully without making excuses.

I didn't hear until just now. He was a great fighter and a great person, though. He's a part of boxing history, and I'm sure his memory will live on.

I think he will do well as long as he stays at Light-Welter i think his last outing against Collazo has given everybody enough evidence already that he isn't gonna rule the Welterweight division. I hope he goes after Castillo after Urango and then the other Belt holders at Light-Welter then maybe America will sit up and take notice.\nThe answer to your other question is a definite yes but only at Light-Welter and Mayweather is never gonna drop back down so we unfortunately will never see this fight.\nI would just like to ask Oya, when he noticed Hatton being vulnerable to these shots, Ive been watching him for ten years and haven't really seen him in trouble apart from against 2 southpaws (Collazo and Macgee) who never threw a straight right to trouble him as i remember ????????? And how is his chin questionable he has been knocked down once in his career and he got up and won the fight ???????????? And Mayweather will have to start throwing Punch's instead of running away if he is going to knock anybody out ever again.??????????? and for anybody significant, He fought Kostya Tszyu in a fight which he wasn't supposed to win according to the bookies, watch what Kostya done to Sharmba Mitchell and Zab (chicken dance) Judah if you think he weren't significant.

Zab Judah was suspended by the Nevada Athletic Commission has revoked Judah's license for a year. (April 8).....so u wont probably see him fight until after April 8 of 2007.........\n\n  July 7, 2006   ---signed with Prize Fight Boxing, the Memphis-based promotional company announced. \n\n\n         Prize Fight's press release on the signing said Judah was expected back in the ring in the fall, but that could prove tricky given that his punishment...........

I would like to see Hatton earn another quality win before I believe he can compete with Floyd.  The Collazo fight lowered Hatton's stock a bit.  If he can beat another good 147 lb fighter in the top 5 than I say give him a shot otherwise I haven't seen any thing that makes me think he can compete with Mayweather.

Nope. Seen enough of these two fighters. Barrera's already won two out of three. He doesn't need to prove anything else. If Morales wins another it'd be a draw 2-2.  I don't mind watching a trilogy between Barrera and Pacquiao though.
