Just because he was top 2 doesn't mean he was in his prime. We see this in stubborn holdovers from previous eras. Floyd, himself, wasn't in his...
Good breakdown. I agree that Schmeling and Frazier's wins top Bowe's. I also don't believe Holyfield ever beat Bowe. In my opinion, Louis was in...
I will say, with regards to the above, that Beterbiev is big for a light heavyweight. Perhaps he is not large enough for there to be 10 pounds of...

Done with that guy. Just kitschy phrases that no longer have anything to do with boxing.
More information: Dmitry Bivol at 21 was competing at 165 He was 178 the following year Parallels abound. Same-day weigh-ins in amateur boxing...
How so? I gave you a longitudinal look at Foster's career and cross-referenced it to Kovalev, Golovkin, and others. You're the one with mostly...
