It was originally recorded as a 5th round TKO (for many years actually). The bell for the 5th round had sounded and then Ellis' corner indicated...
Some of you guys focus on stats way too much. Stats can be important, but they are not everything. Example- Ken Norton went 0-3 in HW world...
I remember his connection with Joe Frazier. He had the look and he had the nickname but he always seemed a bit delusional. I watched him win some...
Barkley vs. Hearns II was close and could have went either way. Barkley dropped Hearns and won by split-decision but not too many would have said...
Povetkin is nothing special... quit using him as an example. John Ruiz would probably beat a 1980 or '81 version of Muhammad Ali. 1977 or '78?...

Excellent match-up. Patterson was young, fast, and powerful in those days. He was virtually undefeated (the loss to Joey Maxim was bullshlt)....
All of them, none of them (except Lewis), or maybe some of them... who knows? They could punch, couldn't always land though. McCall looked...
