    Foreman-Briggs.

    Shannon has tried to coast on that fight ever since, and doesn't seem willing to acknowledge that he got his ass kicked by a 48-year old. He brags about "retiring Foreman". Geez...

    Although, immediately after the fight, he seemed pretty surprised he won. And George was very classy about the whole thing.

    Heh. 10 years later, that fight still bugs me.

    JMM fans would be disappointed with you!

    you forgot to mention any of the JMM's fight

    according to some JMM fans. He was robbed on the ffw matches
    1) JMM vs Norwood - he was robbed
    2) JMM vs CJ - AGAIN he was robbed
    3) JMM vs PAC - he got a draw but despite the judge admitting he
    made a mistake, Jmm FANS believe he was robbed

    THAT makes him ATR boxer (All time Most Robbed BOXER!)

    You're kinda infatuated with this. Consider that Pacquiao fans don't seem to believe he has ever lost a fight on his own....there was always a circumstance that caused his loss. Blisters, weight draining, etc. Point is, not only JMM fans make excuses.

    I don't know about Norwood, but the John fight was clearly a bad decision. As far as Pacquiao, I had JMM winning, many did, many don't. But just as JMM fans have an excuse on their end, so do Pacfans (a swollen hand right?).

    I forgot about Lewis Holyfield I - at least order was restored in the second meeting. Has Evander finally given up the ghost now?

    ODLH-Mosely II

    Jones at the olympics

    Reid-Otkke was more about the ref than the judges. (although they were clearly on the take!)
