Well, here's a chance to fix that! :good Zale vs. Hostak: 32QWbKIptRc I know it's hard to tell who's who at times, but Zale is the one who...
I remember seeing it on ESPN Classic too, but they only showed 5 or 6 rounds IIRC. Even then, I still thought Patterson did enough in those...
Bassey reminds me of Azumah Nelson when he first arrived in the States - fast, aggressive, and could crack with both hands. He was somewhat...
Tiberi and Zarate were the first examples that came to my mind. IIRC, there was an attempt to arrange a rematch between Hagler and Leonard, but...
McCallum was a good all-around boxer/technician, but he didn't excel in any one area IMO. Even his nickname "Bodysnatcher" is misleading, since...
A very reasonable inference based on the links you posted, and perhaps even a correct one. But at the same time, based on the interviews with...

For starters, Roy was not actually the unified champ. He gave away the WBC title in '98, which was then won by Rocchigiani when he beat Nunn. A...

On a side note, it's just struck me that Pacquiao's first loss (to Rustico Torrecampo down at flyweight) ended on almost the exact same punch as...
I've been thinking over Pacquiao's career lately, and I've noticed a number of parallels between his career and Armstrong's. -Both had very...

While many people disagree, I thought Holyfield was robbed against Moorer in their first fight.
