Boxing: What's Hot Now: The Fighter: Fact vs. Fiction

Boxing: What's Hot Now These articles that had the largest increase in popularity over the last week // via fulltextrssfeed.com

The Fighter: Fact vs. Fiction Nov 30th 2012, 11:02 The Fighter gets a lot of its facts about the career of Micky Ward right, including several fight sequences which are amazing in their accuracy and attention to detail. In other places, the film takes liberties with the historical record, some for dramatic effect and others for no apparent reason whatsoever. Here's what we have identified as inaccurate in The Fighter: * The movie has Ward being on a losing skid coming into the Mike Mungin fight in 1988. In reality, Ward was 18-1 and on a four fight winning streak heading into the Mungin fight. Ward's four fight losing streak mentioned in the movie actually took place in 1990-1991. * The movie makes a big deal out of Ward being outweighed by 20 pounds in his fight with Mungin. In real life, Ward weighed in at 136.5 and Mungin at 145, an 8.5 pound difference. * The movie depicts Ward taking a terrible beating in the Mungin fight. In reality, the fight went the full ten rounds and Mungin won by very narrow decision: 96-93, 95-94, 95-94. * The movie mentions a number of Ward opponents - Manetti, Collins and Hernandez - during one montage. In reality, Ward never fought anyone by those names. * The movie makes it seem like Ward's upset of Alfonso Sanchez secured his title shot against Shea Neary. In reality, Ward beat Sanchez on April 12, 1997 and faced Neary on March 11, 2000, almost three years later and with six other fights in between (in which Ward went 4-2). * The movie has Ward's career record as 30-7 with 20 KOs as he enters the ring to fight Neary. In reality, his record was 34-9 with 25 KOs. What did the filmmakers gain by making this change? * The movie has Ward and Neary both weighing 146 pounds. Ward weighed in at 140, Neary at 139. Again, what was gained by making these changes? * The movie has Ward's mom, Alice Ward, sitting at ringside with his girlfriend Charlene for the Neary fight. In reality, Ward's mom was not present at that fight. * The movie has Ward being knocked down in round three of the Neary fight. In reality, Ward was never knocked down during the Neary fight. * The movie has Ward hopelessly behind on the scorecards when he rallies to KO Neary in round eight. In reality, HBO's Harold Lederman had Neary ahead 67-66 entering the eighth round. * Finally, and most frustratingly to fight fans, the movie makes a big deal out of Ward's fight with Neary being for the world title. In reality, it was for the WBU (World Boxing Union) title. No one considers the WBU beltholder to be the true world champion. Neary, who fought exclusively in the U.K. and Ireland, won the vacant WBU title by defeating Darryl Tyson, who "earned" his shot at the title by getting stopped by Oscar De La Hoya in two rounds. Did you notice any other historical inaccuracies? If so, please share them with us! VIDEO: Ward vs. Neary: Round Eight: See Ward KO Neary in their March 11, 2000 fight. Dicky Eklund vs. Sugar Ray Leonard: Judge for yourself whether or not Eklund actually knocked Leonard down on July 18, 1978. Go to 10:00 toward the end of the video. Micky vs. Marky: The Same Fight Twice: Scenes from The Fighter spliced side-by-side with footage from the actual Ward-Neary fight. Update: Video no longer available due to copyright issues.

Boxing: What's Hot Now: Olympics - Boxing Rules

Boxing: What's Hot Now These articles that had the largest increase in popularity over the last week // via fulltextrssfeed.com

Olympics - Boxing Rules Nov 28th 2012, 11:02 If the referee has to stop a bout in the first round because a boxer has suffered a cut eye or a similar injury, the other boxer is declared the winner. If it happens in the second or third round, though, the judges' point tallies up to that time determine the winner. Three doctors sit at ringside and each has the authority to stop a bout if medical reasons appear to necessitate it If both boxers go down at the same time, counting continues as long as one remains down. If both remain down at 10, the boxer with the most points is declared the winner. Other ways a boxer may be declared the winner during a bout include the referee stopping the bout because the opponent is taking too much punishment, or the opponent being disqualified or withdrawing, perhaps because of injury. Also, the opponent's seconds could decide he is suffering too much punishment and throw in the towel. Boxers are required to shake hands before the first round and after the results have been declared. The age limits for Olympic boxing are a minimum age of 17 and a maximum age of 34. Boxers must be clean shaven or facial hair restricted to a small moustache no longer than the length of the upper lip. Beards are banned. Before every bout, a medical examiner must declare the boxers fit. Boxers must weigh in every day. Boxers must wear boxing gloves conforming to AIBA standards. Gloves weigh 10 ounces and feature a white strip to mark the main hitting area. Competitors wear either red or blue. Bouts are conducted in a square ring measuring 6.1 metres inside the ropes on each side. The floor of the ring consists of canvas stretched over a soft underlay, and it extends 45.72 centimetres outside the ropes. Each side of the ring has four ropes running parallel to it. The lowest one runs 40.66cm above the ground, and the ropes are 30.48cm apart. The corners of the ring are distinguished by colors. The corners occupied by the boxers are coloured red and blue, and the other two corners, called "neutral" corners, are white. See also: Amateur Boxing Rules.

Boxing: Guerrero Outpoints Berto in Classic Slugfest

Boxing Get the latest headlines from the Boxing GuideSite. // via fulltextrssfeed.com

Guerrero Outpoints Berto in Classic Slugfest Nov 26th 2012, 11:08 Robert "The Ghost" Guerrero scored the biggest and most impressive win of his career with a 12-round unanimous decision over former welterweight champion Andre Berto. Guerrero dropped Berto in both the first and second rounds and looked to be on the verge of an early round TKO. Berto, however, had other plans. Despite eyes that were rapidly swelling shut, Berto fought back valiantly for the remaining ten rounds of the fight. Most of the bout was fought on the inside where Berto quickly discovered he couldn't Guerrero with his right uppercut. Guerrero, a lightweight as recently as last year, somehow took everything Berto had to offer and - despite a right eye that was nearly swollen shut - continued to press the action until the final bell. This was a Fight of the Year candidate and round 12 was a Round of the Year candidate. The crowd was so loud that referee Lou Moret was unable to hear the final bell and the action didn't stop until a ringside official jumped into the ring. In the end, all three judges scored the bout 116-110 for Guerrero -- completely reasonable but not entirely indicative of the back-and-forth nature of the fight. Guerrero (31-1-1, 18 KOs) retained his WBC interim welterweight belt and now hopes for a big money bout against either Floyd Mayweather Jr. or Manny Pacquiao. Despite the loss, Berto (28-2, 22 KOs) remains a top ten welterweight and has a style that fans want to see. He'll need some time off for his face to heal, but would be a great opponent for Timothy Bradley, Devon Alexander or Victor Ortiz (in a rematch of 2011's Fight of the Year).
