    Yes, and I remembered this fight from back in the stone age when I saw it..what a smooth, almost effortless performance by Young..he was even better than he was in Lyle I.

    Young could have beaten quite a few heavies that he never actually fought. A post Manilla Joe Frazier,for one. Earnie Shavers would have got shut out in a third fight between them.

    Oh yes...I wish they had fought again...#III...young would have shut him out..Young hadn't arrived yet when he fought Shavers. I'm convinced he would have shut him out.

    Young could have beaten quite few heavies that he actually did fight, he just didn't want to enough.
