Sunday Punch: Shane Mosley knocks out Ricardo Mayorga in final second of final round Share this story Ricardo Mayorga is a wild man and a wild (if not disliked) personality with a reckless and chaotic style of fighting. While he had a memorable pair of wins against the late Vernon Forrest, most of Mayorga’s biggest fights ended in losses. We’re going to look back at one he had against Shane Mosley on September 27th, 2008. You see, Mosley is/was one of the more brilliant and crafty boxer-punchers of his generation. Mayorga likes to street fight. Maybe his calling was to be in MMA this entire time and not just after he washed out as a boxer. What transpired was something of a match that had a lot of action but also a lot of sloppiness. A brilliant Mosley sixth round showed the gulf in class between the two. ....
Bettmann/Getty Images The relentlessness Pryor displayed against Arguello created the ultimate modern boxing near-miss. Despite Pryor coming up while Leonard, Duran, and Hearns fought at welterweight, the tenacious junior welterweight did not score a fight with any of them as a pro. While prior Leonard-Pryor negotiations broke down over low offers to the less famous fighter, the two reached an agreement to vie for Leonard s welterweight belt in 1982. Leonard soon suffering a detached retina in a tune-up fight threw off those plans.

Buddy McGirt can relate to Derek Chisora’s supposed last hurrah. In deep conversation with Donald McRae the trainer and former fighter talks about his own gruelling past, the hardest decisions he’s made in the corner and the woman he owes it all to BUDDY McGIRT covers his face with his hands and begins to cry in his hotel room on a sunlit Saturday afternoon in London. The great American trainer, and former two-time world titlist, is 57 years old but the memories remain raw. McGirt shakes his head when I apologise for a question about his mother which has moved him to tears. He wipes his eyes and waves his hand as a sign that, once he has composed himself, he wants to keep talking. We are only 30 minutes into a two-hour conversation and there is so much that McGirt wants to share about his life in and out of the ring. ....
Buddy McGirt: From The Corner of the Gatti-Ward Trilogy Buddy McGirt reflects back on the trilogy between Arturo Gatti vs Micky Ward from his view in the corner of Thunder . Arturo Gatti and Micky Ward went to war three times to become like brothers. Photo Credit: EM Photography “It was something you’ll never forget. You know what I mean? It’s just something special, just what makes it more is the intensity from the crowd. And then you have Michael Buffer doing the announcing. You can’t really explain it.” The saying, ‘they don’t make them like that anymore,’ could most certainly be applied to both Arturo Gatti and Micky Ward, both warriors who left it all in the ring on 100 occasions combined, three times against each other. James Lupton revisits the famous trilogy between the pair with Hall of Fame inductee, Buddy McGirt, who was Gatti’s trainer for the trilogy. ....
