The stoppage was very controversial at the time. How old are you?
I used to not know what to think about the Camacho fight, but I now believe it counts against his legacy. Ray was in his early forties, but,...
For Ray to be a complete package he would have to be better in several departments. One department is punching power. Leonard is overrated...
You haven't seen the fight, have you?

The problem with changing the names is that Leonard didn't win, so there is no equality principle that allows for balancing the equation. It was...
I may have been closer than 8-4 (a case can be made for 6, 11, and 12), but Hagler won the fight. People who think Leonard won are open or...
