    At least he made the most boring automaton ever made, better known as Howard Cossell, quit.

    Chuvalo vs Foreman from 1970. Chuvalo's wife was reported to have possibly fainted watching the carnage. When they interviewed him after the fight he stated that he was just getting warmed up and could not understand why the fight was stopped. People always said that if there were fights to the finish Chuvalo would have been undefeated. Foreman years later said that the one guy who could really take a punch that he fought was Chuvalo. Today, at about 70 years of age I read that this superman can bench press about 470lbs! He really is a Cro-Magnon man. And he also shows no ill effects from his long boxing career. His skull is probably at least three times as dense as the average person.

    Foreman vs Stewart; to see a middle-aged man walking round with his face like that...............brutal AND awe-inspiring.

    Lamotta vs. Robinson is the winner (how did I forget that?). Lamotta was just blundering and bumbling forward, unable to even lift his arms to block the shots by the end of the fight.
