Pazienza was rated where he should have been, he wasn’t great but he always gave it everything he had. Graham was really underrated thought. Great boxer.

@@apex_prowler95 did u ever lift weights? He went from 135 to 165 over a period of years. Many of my friends in high school/college made gains like that including myself. Not even close to using steroids. If you actually worked out, you would know you sound ridiculous.

Vin said Herol didn't have no padding in his gloves and from the look of the fighters he beat a jab alone look like it hurt them. And look how vin reacted when Herol landed wat it looks like a soft jab he start becoming more defensive like he didnt wanna feel dat again

@markhiggins83154 жыл бұрын
@@gg-mv2oy You mean one right hand. It was virtually the only punch Jackson landed. Herol just got careless and a pretty desperate Jackson threw that punch blind only for Graham to run right on to it. Of all people to run on to a punch to, Julian Jackson was a legendary banger. Herol was completely out classing him up until that point and Jackson had only moments left before being stopped at the end of the round. When you consider Graham lost a split decision to a prime Mike McCallum that had he not had a point deducted he'd have won a world title the first attempt. At 38 in his last try he was ahead against Charles Brewer having dropped Brewer twice until his old legs ran out of gas and got stopped in the 10th. It just wasn't meant to be. Graham was a far better boxer than many that have become world champions.

i agree bomber graham a tremendous boxer but one thing told us over years to be a world champion you need be a banger also and bomber never had get out of jail punch Shame he never won a world title if he had a punch on top of his great boxing skills he would of been a world champion look at other champions McCallum benn eubank jackson they all had a punch

@@gg-mv2oy Of course you need to be able to punch and actually although not a huge puncher Graham's power was pretty respectable, normally it was an accumulation of punches that did it for him but if you actually check his record he stopped consequetively I think it was about 10 opponents in his prime. It wasn't his lack of power that caused him not to win a world crown it was more circumstantial. Even when he was over the hill he stopped Chris Johnson after flooring him on the seventh. Even in his last fight he floored Charles Brewer twice. As I said he wasn't a huge puncher but he certainly punched hard enough and importantly often enough. I used to work with a fight Doctor who officiated at a good few Graham fights and he always maintained that Bombers opponants were among the most banged up that he dealt with. There have been plenty of world champions who didn't hit nearly as hard as Graham. Benn and certainly Eubank would have stood little chance against a peak Mike McCallum and I doubt they would have got passed Jackson either. I'd have fancied both of them to have defeated Brewer but again in his prime Graham would have taken him to school and stopped him late.

yall nuts? herol won this fight by running, Vinny had him on queer street in later rounds, the announcers thought he was gone. If Vinny fought a little smarter and didnt bring his gf and have sex all night, night before he probably wins by ko..did he make vinny miss, yes but he didnt do anything to vinny, he didnt throw any power shots
