    Weird how Abe Simon, the one big guy Walcott fought, scored a knockout victory over him.

    To be fair that wasn’t a prime Walcott and he was winning every round before getting caught.

    He'd get no credit, but for Ortiz it's spectacular example of his speed.

    Ortiz didn't look quick in this fight...
    Hein Ten Hoff was clearly above CW limit and I'd argue he was as good as any of Ortiz scalps. Joe Baski was also above 200 lbs and he was notable fighter.

    Many argued that Walcott beat Louis the first time and Louis was above CW limit and much better than Ortiz.

    Ah yes, Hein Ten Hoff, known for his notable victories over....

    I overlooked Baksi, but Baksi had little power and wasn't especially big.

    Except he beat a highly ranked fighter who had just taken four rounds off Wlad.

    Compared to Walcott? He's slow as hell, it's not even close.

    He beat a guy who cracked the top 5 of The Ring's rankings. That's the same number that Old Foreman beat, and one more than Tommy Morrison or Ray Mercer beat.

    First of all, what does this have to do with this match-up?

    Second of all, no he wasn't, don't embarrass yourself.

    How many fights did Walcott have again. How many did he take on an empty stomach so his kids could eat?
    How many while working a regular job?
    Do your homework
