    Tyson almost knocked out douglas though. Wlad never came close to almost knocking out sanders.

    The thread is about the worst beating a future ATG has ever taken. Tyson-Douglas went back and forth for 10 rounds. Frazier was down 6 times in less than 2 rounds.

    Holmes beat Ali, Norton, Shavers, Witherspoon, and bonecrusher smith
    ..

    Joe Louis beat Primo Carnera, Max Schmeling, Max Baer, Jack Sharkey and JIm Braddock, all the champions before him, then beat Walcott.

    that would be like Wlad or Vitali beating Lewis, Holyfield, tyson, Bowe and Rahman then beating the guy thats going to replace them.


    Thats not even close.

    Marciano was the old school Calzaghe. Best wins over old versions of great fighters. Prime Louis would have raped him as would countless others.

    Corrie Sanders used to move like a welter weight and his speed and power were phenomenal.Even the way he would dodge shots was just impressive and calling him a journeyman is very disrespectful.The only reason he lost to Vladmir was because he had been retired from boxing and now playing golf and farming instead of jogging at 5am.He gave Vladmir hell until he ran out of gas and he's the last good heavyweight to bow out of the sport.All these current guys are just a bunch of nobodies

    Henry Armstrong beat Barney Ross into retirement. A long time ago, but still.

    Bob Foster KO4 Dick Tiger.

    Lot's of other old fights too. In these times, it's such a big deal to be undefeated that boxers don't always fight the best opponents they can....but you guys know all this.
