    What'd you think of his 4th bout with Jimmy Bivins?

    To my mind any Charles fight is ghood to watch. My favorite is the Louis fight, because Ezz moved like a cat against an old but still dangerous Louis..I've always been fascinated by that fight...but Ezz looked great to me in all of his title defenses and covered himself in glory in his two fights with Marciano...especially the first fight.

    You being serious.

    Just, I have seen some people deride it as boring and messy.

    Personally, I don't see it like that, I think its pretty good and you have to remember it is too very very great guys in there. It does get a bit messy on the inside but both guys are doing clever stuff and there is some sharp offence work by both throughout.

    Good shout.

    The Oma one is superb, I agree.

    Possibly the best he looked as champion, aside from the Louis fight, he really goes in looking to take Valentino out, and although it is a close fight on rounds you see who is doing the better work. A nice tactically fought, wear you down sorta fight.
