Not especially. Has a shout for the #3 spot at Cruiser, albeit a country mile behind Usyk and Holyfield, but I'd say he's widely acknowledged as...
Calzaghe. I have my misgivings over him, but there's no doubt that by the time he was done at 168 he'd absolutely and thoroughly proved himself to...
I think he was an excellent fighter and obviously one of the greatest from my shores. That said, I do think he gets a tad overrated by a lot of...
Holyfield by an absolute mile. Every day of the week, and twice on a Sunday.
Buddy McGirt, maybe? Might sound strange given he produced such a masterclass against a very dangerous Simon Brown, but I've always thought Buddy...
Well I believe Buchanan is not included because the question is who was Duran's toughest opponent whilst he was champion. He was the challenger...
Kevin Mitchell showed more heart, talent and application, and earned more plaudits from fans, in his loss against Linares than he ever did in any...
Norris versus Leonard. I think Norris, after brutalising Ray for the first three rounds or so, was a little shocked and saddened by how little...
Usyk for sure. More dominant at Cruiser than Ward was at Super-Middle, and did it without home advantage or having to compromise his opponents in...
Like @Dubblechin, I've always scored this to Bowe anyway, albeit usually closely. Not a highway job, but definitely a dubious decision for me...
Close fight which I tend to score to Camacho by a slither. Given the layoff Mancini did excellently to keep it so close and give himself a shot at...
The McGirt rematch is probably my favourite. Haugen I and Ramirez II would also be up there. Pineda is an underrated performance as well.
It's hard to understate how much of a media darling Bruno was over here. Right from the off he'd been marketed as this lovable, affable giant and...
Well of course if he were to beat Ruiz, Usyk and the winner of Joshua-Wilder (albeit how many times do we need to see him against Wilder?) within...
The first Benvenuti fight. One of the all-time great performances and it really doesn't get much better than what Monzon produced there.
