    Re-watched Sexy Sergio v. Pavlik this morning. This fight came close, but Sergio had a few tough rounds in the middle. Wasn't Floyd a slight underdog against Corrales?

    I don't call that really dismantling... Douglas was in a very bad place in round 8 for instance and could have easily lost the fight there.

    Barkley/Toney fits perfectly. As does Schmeling/Louis I.

    :lol: He did zee zomesing.

    Oh, yeah. Youtube it and listen to the commentary. A lot of people were still seriously underrating Toney by this time and Barkley had gotten the second win over Hearns not long before and...well, retrospect is a snide *****, ain't she? :nonono
