Bob Foster, anyone?
Actually, it did exist back then, although it wasn't widely recognised. My pick for best is Jose Napoles. Consider Eddie Perkins.
John Garfield had it correct from the start. Muscles will develop, but bones and tendon insertion points (etc.) stay roughly the same. A man with...
Yeah, less speed, more weight and surface area. The trade off could very well be quite profitable, or not.
Well call me Norah, I saw your name and got ready for a debate*. Thank you. *Which, by the way, would have been (and is usually) extremely...
I think everyone rates Leonard in the top ten somewhere. But to me he's #5 and knocking on the door of #4, Sam Langford. Still not sure what to...
You know full well who it was. ****ing Fitzsimmons and his fan boys :-( To be fair, era for era, Bob probably deserves it over Ross, and I...
Nah not necessarily, you just subscribe to a different view. I just needed to briefly defend my ranking of him. I like that 135-1-1 (ten years)...
I also think Leonard over Duran at 135lbs is a pretty obvious choice going by records unless your criteria includes that you think Duran would...
Pep seems to be underrated these days. He beat an enormous list of contenders (including some good lightweights) and went 135-1-1 before he lost...
Well this one quickly turned to **** didn't it?
I normally think of Louis as bang on 200lbs. Realistically he was probably the best of the sub-200lbers, and the second best of the 200-219lbs...
Thank you. Looking at a list like that, someone could easily call me biased towards old, sub-heavyweight greats, but I find the simple fact to be...
1. Harry Greb 2. Henry Armstrong 3. Ray Robinson 4. Sam Langford 5. Benny Leonard 6. Ezzard Charles 7. Bob Fitzsimmons 8. Willie Pep 9. Roberto...
#8 seems to be the typical rating. I'm believing more and more that he's a top five lock.
