For prime Holmes I'd say the first Shavers fight. He looked fantastic. Always moving, pasting Earnie with his jab and never letting Shavers get...
From 1900 to 1950 I'd pick Johnson, Dempsey and Louis to possibly beat a prime Ali. From 1950 to present I'd pick Frazier, Holmes, Lewis and...
I se Holyfield winning by mid round KO. Too much speed, chin,power and combination punching. Max would try for a sneaky right hand bomb to set up...
If we're talking about the Joe Louis that destroyed Baer and Schmeling then it's Joe by mid round stoppage. Tua might hurt Joe early but after...
Lewis by KO. No matter how we try to dissect, analyze, ponder, guess as to why these two never fought and how the outcome would've been one thing...
If Baer wins this match it would be by KO similar to the way Corrie Sanders beat Wlad. Jump on him early and never let him off the hook. Max isn't...
Put's things in perspective I'd say
I see only 2 outcomes. Either Joe can outhustle and outspeed Qawi to a decision or Dwight grinds him down to a late round stoppage.
In a comparitive sense maybe Louis is a little behind Vlad and Lennox but in a relative sense he is actually ahead of them due to his smaller...
Mr. Marvel is spot on. Hagler wasn't a very big MW. His lean muscularity made him appear bigger than he really was. Hearns, Obel and Roldan were...
I'd say it's about equal. Ali fought a man who could get underneath his punches and brutalize his body while Holyfield fought a very large skilled...
Marciano was the better fighter but Johnson was the better boxer if that's what this thread is asking. If they fought each other I'd favor Johnson...
I think we'd certainly see better conditioned heavyweights. They couldn't carry all the bulk they do today and go 15 rds. There would probably be...
Young was good no doubt but if Lennox decides to open up and bring out the heavy artillery then it's all over for Young. Lennox could box as well...
Are we talking legacy or head to head? Legacy wise he may be somewhat overrated but head to head I don't think so. There have been a few champions...
