    First ones thant came to mind that won titles were Guyt Espadas and Jr and Leon and Cory Spinks. I have a feeling im forgetting some others. Although i can go on for pages mentioning Champ,contenders on both ends. Can you guys mention some of your favorites or most talented?

    :yep Yey i was thinking about the same thing, If Laila was a dude they would take it hans down. Since she is probably a top 5 all time female along with Muhamad. In fact HTH Muhamad is the gretest and Laila can possibly make an argument.


    Did you guys know that Archie Moore knocked out Harold Johnson and his dad.

    Billy Douglas and Buster were a good father/son combo.

    Hagler fought a Roy Jones but not Jnr's Dad.

    Really? That goes against everything i've ever believed about that. I read a book that put it to the effect of 'Jones' father was a competent middleweight who fought Marvin Hagler', if you know it wasn't Jones' dad though i'll accept that. ****in' bull**** books man, haha

    You know whats funny is before the Internet and Boxing records came to the boxing fan public. Roy Jones Sr and Joel Delahoya claimed to be tough journeyman but yet you cant find any recorded fight on them.

    Marcel Cerdan Jr. managed a respectable 56-5-2 record.
