That would be my one of Marvin's too.
As Klompton has stated,Muhammad officially vacated the crown in 1970 so Joe was the official champion on the night of March 8th 1971.
Absolutely. And Golota repeated the stupidity in the rematch.
How many remember Frankie Lucas?
Charley gives Marvin a good fight but would lose over the distance be it 12 or 15.
One of the very greatest pound for pound fighters ever. The best welterweight since the original Sugar for sure.
Good choice. I would pick him or Sugar Ray Leonard.
aka 'Battle of the Baldies' What a fight this was,eh? Marvin was the better fighter but Bennie put up a battle. What does everyone else think?
Excellent assessment,imo.
Muhammad Ali and Joe Frazier in Manila. Both past their best but giving us a performance like they did. Wow!
Where everybody knows your name,Fergy! Marvin was a big favourite of mine too. That never say die attitude of his was one of his best weapons...
In my opinion Marvin would have won again. May have taken him a while longer though.
This is how I read it too. The Mongoose decisions Sugar.
A fine fight. Marvin may have been past his very best but he could still pull it out when necessary. Mugabi was a very dangerous opponent.
Definitely. After Fury and Usyk,AJ is the best heavyweight out there.
