Based on these statements, you aren't capable of analyzing fighters' abilities. Most reasonable fans would agree that a superb losing effort...
Let me address some of your distortions. 1. Frazier was not trying to reinvent his style against Bugner. I am very well read regarding the fight,...
It's not a fighter's wins that count: it's more about the ability the boxer displays in his fights, even if his best fights are loses. Ali is the...
