Hey SJ, I agree totally with your assessment of Holyfield v Tyson I, that it was more a war of wills than anything else, and that it underscores...
I rate Marciano very highly, particularly in P4P discussions. Interestingly, I don't disagree with any of your criticisms outlined below! Its...
Not sure whether you mean no boxer, by no human being, but FTR Steve Ovett once ran 20 miles a day for a week just to see if he could do it. He...
This criticism applies just as much to second tier, or depth, wins as it does to top tier wins. Maybe some of Louis's top 40 wins are 'just as...

Russell, I think this is an excellent question/observation well worth debating, and should not be dismissed. Fan man or no fan man, the second...
Your debate with Magoo here re: Lewis's prime gets to the heart of why it is so difficult assessing his resume/legacy. When exactly was his...
Well, the Tyson win was comprehensive and uncontroversial, while I am one of those who believe Bowe DID pull out the draw in the 2nd Holy match....
I watched his schooling of talented (but fairly green) Englishmen Adrian Dodson back in the 90s. It was magnificent, as one-sided a technicians...
I agree. Ali was beyond woeful in that fight. He offered nothing. Despite this, Young still did virtually nil. And he kept turning his back and...
Torrid? Sordid? Neologism? Either way, I like it.
