Very possible. But Napoles outboxed Griffith and I think would have a very good chance to outbox Nino. Nino was indeed a rough customer, as you...
He did something much more impressive by completely outboxing Palimino at Welter and then winning the title from the great Sugar Ray Leonard in...
You can never be sure about anything in boxing at this level, but Ward has handled some very top fighters in convincing fashion. So has Dawson on...
And Cotto was not too big for Roberto, not by a long shot. Duran would dominate Cotto way worse than he did Davey Moore.
Agreed. He was past his prime in some sense, but Holyfield had some ups and downs of excellence during that part of his career. He was...
Who knows? Back then the championship distance was 15 rounds. It's possible he's one of those guys that can't do that. And it's possible he...
Do you think the 23 year old Tyson that lost to Douglass would have beaten Lewis? Barring a lucky punch Lewis was always vulnerable to, I think...
I love how the older Lewis clinched to an old corpse of (the actually younger) Tyson. How come Tyson couldn't maintain his alleged "prime" past...
Ali would have won easily against the amateur version of Stevenson. But Stevenson could have developed, with proper training, into a very good...

I was not denigrating SRLs resume, by the way. It is one of the greatest of all time. He fought all the other great fighters of his day. That...
Yes, and Haye famously "backed" out once before finally getting in the ring with Wlad. And then after they did fight, he pinkie toed it out of...
I think the USSR had crumbled by the time they were big time amateur fighters. Wlad won the gold medal in the 1996 games. Anyway, you can be...
Funny how Tyson supporters say you cannot include the Douglass fight in Tyson's "prime". Gee, he was what, 23 at that time? No all time great...
