I believe what he said when he stated that he never said that, no mas, he said, no sigo, no sigo, no sigo. It was Howard Cosell who claimed Roberto said no mas. There has never been, and never will be an era like that, Duran, Hagler, Leonard and the Hitman, Tommy Hearns. So many awesome fights.

I know that Roberto was a sparring partner for Stallone in Rocky 2 As for that fight, he was partying, womanising hardly trained at all. Not making excuses for him, he just knew that he wasn't a match for sugar Ray in that fight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah if you believe a Bullshitting lawyer who became a commentator, who never actually jumped in a boxing ring to fight. I prefer to believe what the man himself stated, no sigo, no sigo, no sigo, which translates to I am not carrying on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's kind of like refusing to get off the stool and saying no mas after round two or three in boxing. what about those hugging contests though? not all fights were top notch like that one.

Watched it live. And I was cheering for Duran! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jay was okay but i found Letterman to be funnier for at least 10 years before i found them about equally as good... what surprised me abot Texx was how sharp witted he was... those statements and jokes within them have Layers upon layers to dissect. ill leave it at that.

I think they both did get a penalty for delay of game. You are right if I remember it correctly. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
