    my strangest boxing opinion is so strange. Its my opinion and i am entitled to it even if i am unique in thinking it. Here goes, it is that billy conn wore a slightly smaller pair of gloves against joe louis in their first fight. I base this on how they looked. It cannot be proved. I just think they looked smaller. Joes look like 6oz gloves. billys look like bag mits.

    SRL beats Hagler prime for prime as well. Not a strange opinion at all to me, but to many others here it is.

    Honestly speaking, Roger Mayweather had a great chance of upsetting Hector Camacho if they had an undisputed matchup in 1983.

    Primo Carnera might well have won a rematch against Max Baer.

    Most great fighters go undefeated in their absolute primes. In fact, fighters at their very best are a much rarer thing than is commonly thrown around.
