An old Briggs was absolute crap compared to Dubois. Dubois is better overall than anyone Vitali beat (Sanders was fat and 38, as well as always a...
Huni makes him quit. Wardley blows his head off.
Wlad was dropped thirteen times by six fighters in his 20's/first 48 pro fights (Pannell, Puritty x2, Sanders x4, Brewster x2, Williamson, Peter...
(Assuming neutral officiating and location) 2015 Fury: 4/1 underdog against Wlad, still an unknown quantity, lost to Usyk twice in 2024 2017...
In practice they do. Take his win over Hunter. If Usyk had rematched and beaten Hunter at heavyweight, would the win had added nearly as much to...

Eddie Hearn in April 2018: "Wilder is a massive high risk fight and it’s the biggest fight in British boxing. Yes, Joshua wants greatness, but it...
Do you think Wilder was a clean affleet?
I don't accept the official explanation. Team Wilder kept him away from any and all serious threats prior to 2018.
Norton had a dodgy chin and defence. Not just the KO1/KO2 losses to Foreman, Shavers and Cooney but a KO8 loss to 188 lbs journeyman Jose Garcia...
Good points, I updated my piece on Byrd's Vitali win based on your post:...
"In particular, being as they both beat Wlad and Povetkin was completely dominated by him" Had Povetkin fought a 41 year old Wlad rather than a...
"cruiserweight Marco Huck (in a life-and-death fight that imo really exposed Povetkin)" Huck was a long-reigning cruiser titlist, the size of a...
"I'm saying Arreola shouldn't have been ranked that high" He's a 3x title challenger and one of Vitali's better contenders. He was coming off 1st...
My theory is that K2 (who had signed Usyk) were protecting their (at the time) far more marketable and well-established champion, Wlad. Better to...
