Uhhhh Burt, you already responded to me on this...and I responded back...we're good...
Top Heavyweight of all time.
I like to watch him fight...puts on a good show. Not particularly a fan, but wish him the best.
What was the consensus of the time? Was there an opinion on the merits of Mike Gibbons and Benny Leonard...as to who was the better boxing technician?
Did the old time reporters clearly rate Ketchel over Walker?
@ middleweight.
Lennox probably does pretty good.
This is an excellent old school match up...Yarosz fought a number of styles, demonstrates good footwork and jab. He beat a swarmer in Ken...

Definitely agree. But while he wasn't a speed merchant...he wasn't slow. Very good point on being able to anticipate. Eubank was an adaptable...
Danny Swift Garcia...Next.
I think actually you could up the ante some more on that...when Joey was "on" he would give anybody you can name a fight at the weight...Yeah?...
On paper you would say Ortega wouldn't beat Paret...but he did. On paper, you could say he wouldn't survive Fernandez...but he did. I would lean...
