the IMO easy 5 picks are: Lewis, Tyson, Wlad, Vitali, Fury. next I'll pick Bowe [though honestly I'm giving him more credit for a single...
Hearns, Hamed, Lewis, Eubank, Tyson (either of them).
I always saw size as a key part of the Bowe package. Don't fancy him at all against a high quality giant.
dubois doesn't move half as well, he's more a new Gary Mason than Lewis

ha, no, I just meant that it started, at some point during the fight, to look as if losing might be a possibility, that'd never really happened to...
I'm not sure Hopkins is a great shout. When people say that about him they're mostly making comparisons with the preternaturally gifted [and...
that's fair. all fighters have ups & downs, depending on the matches they face, their health & fitness, & so on, rather than being on perfectly...
It was watching a near-live rerun [repeatedly, since my dad used to VCR a lot of the big fights] of the Tyrell Biggs or Pinklon Thomas fight, I...
