Siki had been bribed to lose but, for whatever reason, decided to KO Carpentier anyway.
In a six rounder, if the referee will let Grim continue even if he's KD'd a dozen times and his face is hanging off, provided he can still stand...
He only fought two #1 contenders in 20 defences though. It was quite common for Holmes to be fighting the guy ranked #8 or #9 while his WBA...
What era do they fight in? A lot of Grim's fights would have been stopped in later eras. In his own time, I think Robby stops him due to...
I think EMM in particular was intimidated fighting Scott at Rahway. Assuming these fights are on neutral territory, all three overcame better...
Hence the draw!
Leonard, unless Nelson outlasts him in a 40 rounder.
Chavez v Whitaker - Thought a draw was fair. As with many Pea fights, he spent a lot of time not actually fighting. Bugner v Cooper - Slow and...
Arcel was a great trainer, but he was about as objective as any other old man half-remembering fighters he saw decades earlier through rose tinted...
Never seen Benny Leonard referred to as overrated (I stand to be corrected). Then again that may just be because he is rarely mentioned at all...
And Bowe v Buster Mathis, who Bowe blatantly hit while he was down but somehow escaped being DQ'd. Bowe was involved in a lot of bizarre ones, and...
Gavilan wasn't stopped in nearly 150 fights, so I can't see Griffith pulling it off. It would probably go the same way as the Griffith-Rodriguez...
Fought and sparred a who's who of a couple of eras and yet still mentally sharp in old age and outlived many of his peers. Without people like...
Ali actually did this with a few of his white opponents. Bugner mentions it in his autobiography but actually didn't seem that bothered about it....
Tony Anthony doing the same to Mike Weaver. He literally attacked while Weaver was walking back to his corner.
