He fought the biggest names and the best of those times, period. All those names, they were either past their best or still underachievers. Why do...
It's completely irrelevant if he deserved to be ranked or not, what does matter is that he was, pretty high I might add. Bonavena, Quarry, Ellis...
That same logic applies to Foreman, if Frazier wasn't good enough to win the title from Ali, we never would have heard of him. I don't have...
He fought in a tournament which contained the best contenders of the moment, except for Frazier, and won. He beat Martin, Bonavena, Quarry and...
What does Mathis have to do with what I just said? Ellis won the tournament, he was rated no.2, behind Frazier himself. That's as good as being no.1.

Without knowing much about Gonzalez, if they drew when Chavez was way past his best times at the age of 36, I'm thinking it won't be a tought...
Really? Like who, 4-15 Terry Sorrell, 3-24 Clarence Boone, 1-14 Joe Murphy Goodwin? And Peralta was ranked the first time they fought, in '70,...
I see you decided to completely ignore his point and instead make up one of your own. Check his post again and see what he said about Machen,...
What Frazier are we talking about here? Marvis?
That might work for Ali, but not for Wlad. Ali had an unbelievable and very busy second part of his career, we saw what that did to him, but Wlad...

Quarry was actually borderline great, Ellis was good, so was Bonavena. The only thing Joe lacks is longevity, and of course there are the two...
I love the way he leans on his opponent, holding him behind the neck and pushing him down with both hands. Horrible fight, horrible referee. The...
Lewis will use his size in his own advantage and would outpoint Toney. I love Toney but I don't see him pulling this off.
