Thanks! Yeah, I always thought he was better as a lightweight, but honestly he has been fighting at welter for so long now and been so dominant...
I think he beats Benitiz in a close decision, not a very exciting fight. The young prime Oscar had the psychical tools to beat him, but I wonder...
I guess he would be a bit different with modern training, bigger and stronger. Perhaps slower? Not sure if he would have been better, I mean, he...
But surely one must consider how long that prime run lasted? If not, you can rank Ingemar Johansson as highly as Joe Louis, and we both know how...
Marciano had the better career and I would rate him higher. Its beyond me though how anyone can fail to see the huge stylistic advantage for...
I agree that Liston was probably older than officialy stated, 12 or 13 years seems a stretch though. 34 when he won the title, or a little older,...

I made that statement in response to the claim that Douglas punched much harder than Ali. Puncher is a relative term though, I did not mean to say...
Not shabby at all, better than I would do for sure! But its less than 60%, which is around what Ali had. But I think you and me both know that you...
When did Douglas prove that he punched harder than Ali? Douglas was anything but a puncher, I don't think he was as a good a puncher as Ali, and...
I actually think Ali was close to his absolute best here. By this time he had shed all the rust and was still a young man in peak condition....
Some things changes over time, and although boxing technique seems to have stayed pretty much the same over time, athletes are better today. Not...
