    Cory, for someone who regularly makes himself look over 50, you're awfully agist. The Crowcroft Lexicon is far superior to adults like my father, who I routinely give false information to just to see whether or not he'll believe me.

    Sam Langford. Only 126 KOs in 313 career bouts. That’s roughly a 40% KO ratio. Obviously a weak puncher.

    Otherwise Foreman needed accumulation of punches against the glass- chinned Lyle.

    Apart from all of your other bull****, this sentence alone should disqualify you from posting on here.

    Why?Because Ali was not good puncher?
    He wasn't and dealt with that okay.

    Joe Calzaghe wasn't a particularly hard puncher.
