I'd pick even the faded Ali to win against Foreman. By that time, Foreman had faded considerably too. He had life and death with Lyle and lost...
It would be close, I think. Broner wins some early rounds with his speed and better classic skills. But Haugen grits it out and slowly takes...
I'd take Pryor. He was really sloppy in some of his fights, but he was great against Arguello when he knew he had to be great. Similarly, I...
The talk of a comeback seems silly to me, if it's anything other than charity exhibition bouts. Not that Tyson couldn't still beat some pros. By...
I was not around for a lot of the fights mentioned. I started following this great sport around 1978. Hagler-Hearns is always the first one that...
I liked Weaver. He was a very strong fighter and a good champion. But against Liston, he wouldn't have much of a chance. I pick Liston in five.
I'm pretty confident Rosario would have won. What I'm not sure about is how. Rosario had the tools to batter Haugen and maybe stop hiim early....

Monzon by UD15. Not an easy fight for Monzon, but Toney would not be active enough.
I don't think I have too many unusual boxing opinions. But there is one worth mentioning. I have always believed that Donald Curry, at his peak,...
Saad Muhammad's fights were often exciting because he'd come back from the brink of defeat. The two fights with Marvin Johnson and the one with...
I don't know how Hearns would have done against the other all time greats. My guess is he wins some, loses some. No question in my mind that...
Before Roy Jones fought John Ruiz, there was talk of Jones facing Vitali Klitschko. I think that would have been ugly. Klitschko was far too big...
Tyson was nothing short of spectacular pre-Douglas. That version of Tyson would have been difficult for any heavyweight at any time. Because...
Yes, Whitaker suffered a lot of knockdowns late in his career. Most or all of them happened when he was a welterweight. Although he was very...
