Wlad will forever be haunted in these discussions by his losses, but let's get it clear, two of those only occured because he gassed. If that...
Here is my case against Holyfield (and why I think he is overrated): 1. He fought five opponents multiple times and has negative and neutral...
Sonny Liston was great in his own time, but get real, he was a big HW in his era at 218 pounds and fought guys like Patterson who would be...

My point about any fighter pressuring Roy in his prime is that Roy hit people with such precise, flush punches that it took the confidence and...
Pavlik is a freak of nature for his ability to make 160 and not lose stamina. Besides, he has unreal mental strength. Not a perfect fighter, but...
What you are overlooking here is the fact that Roy in his prime avoided pressure with his unreal reflexes and blind punches. Do you really think...
