1972 was kind of a dismal year - Frazier took it easy as far as opponent quality goes. Foreman rested on his high ranking, with 3 of 5 of his...
Those dang judges went and stole it from Oscar, I tell ya. But I think Oscar was too good to be stopped in 7. My prediction is that he makes it to...
It's less than a year away!
I'll add Tyson-Witherspoon, March 1987, which didn't happen because Witherspoon was kayoed by Bonecrusher Smith.
Bowe didn't back out of the May 1993 Mercer defense. Mercer got himself eliminated by losing to Jesse Ferguson and trying to bribe Jesse during...

Ring had Rahman rated #8 for a few months before the first Lewis fight. Ring didn't recognize champions at that point, so Lewis was #1.
Yeah, they were a pretty good team. I liked Al Albert and Sean O'Grady a lot. Albert had sort of a weird sense of humor that I liked, while...
Cool! I certainly didn't pick it. Though if a friend offered me those odds I might take him up on it, but I wouldn't have bet much. I didn't when...
These hindsight "he was there for the taking" posts... I don't buy it. Did you guys really pick Leon Spinks and Tarver at the time? Cool if you...
