    Harris was way better than what he showed on that night though.

    Moorer losing to Foreman.

    Don't get me wrong; I love Big George and I think he fougth a very smart fight, playing the lame duck while waiting patiently for his opportunity, but he had no bussines winning that fight against a focused, disciplined, cautious opponent.

    It would have been an easy bout for Moorer, but luckily for Foreman, Moorer got cocky and didn't keep the distance even with Freddy Atlas screaming to the top of his lungs to stay the heck away of Big George... the rest is history.

    A very obvious one , especially considering the results of the 2nd fight. Louis vs Schmeling.

    Would normally say prime Hearns beats Barkley easy but he did lose twice.. Naw, prime Hearns still does.

    I'm late to the party. You stole my thunder with Quarry-Chuvalo!

    Has anybody mentioned Backus-Napoles 1?
