Back in the 30-50s, top level boxers fought far more often - 200 fight careers were not that unusual. They had to fight that often as there was...
I was underwhelmed by A'bunadh a decade ago; just not for me. I do like a good sherry monster though - I share the love for Glenfarclas 105, and...
/ A'bunadh is a whisky that everyone else seems to love but me. It's unboubtedly good value in terms of £ per %abv but I find it tastes a bit...

All the cheerleaders for Ortiz must have had a really high opinion of Bryant Jennings, as that's his only good win. Great amateur record, but he...
But all of those are at least 5 years older than Yarde with many more amateur and professional fights. I personally doubt Yarde will ever be...
True... winning by a shut out RTD is not being "exposed". Yarde has not looked great but there are positives - rounds against durable opposition....
