Dempsey was great...but people are selling Marciano short here...Undefeated heavy champ for **** sakes...Goldstien knew his stuff.
I think the Duran that fought Curavas, Moore, and Hagler in that time frame gets by Mugabi...But the Duran that fought Barkley might not be quite...
I wouldn't recommend anyone fighting while inebriated...just sayin'... Floyd UD...
Monzon wrecks Steele in 10.
They can't all be Rocky Marcianos...I guess...yeah?
What weight divisions I wonder????.....
Personally I think Hearns would decision Thurman...not a stoppage. Thurman has pretty good movement.
On a head to head basis??? If not...who would you slide in after the Sugars? Napoles? Gavilan? Walker? Armstrong? Griffith? Rodriguez? Walcott? Floyd?
I think Hagler has a stylistic and physical advantage regardless of weight...Hagler again.
I'm glad to see Whitaker getting some respect for being the tough out he was...Tough tough style to deal with...even for the welters.
Two of my all time favorite fighters here. I think a logical case can be made for either one. I recently saw an article from an old SI magazine re...
@ welterweight....15 rounds. -Jose Mantequilla Napoles -Emile Griffith -Luis Manuel Rodriguez -Henry Armstrong How does Pea stack up??? Against...
15 rounds. Welterweights.
Duran on that one particular night?....Yes. I think so...with apologies to Kid Gavilan.
I think Sports Illustrated said that Duran urinated blood for days after that first fight, Red.
