What is heavier, a pound of feather or a pound of concrete?
Good, yes. Great, no. As for the logic "look, Williams didn't knock him down, so Ali's knockdown can't have been legit": boxing just doesn't...
This post is worth quoting because it is so telling about how people's perceptions of Sonny Liston are far off from reality. If Young is tiny,...
Indeed i would say that. :D Though to be fair, I wouldn't make such a comment about Lewis-Mercer. Raymond never fought better than he did against...
He looked pretty trim at 215lbs against Wlad, but if he can dehydrate to 199lbs for the weighin, it would be great for him. I'd love to see him...

Do you not consider the possibility that things get rough early on and Lewis gets the best of it? Not saying it would happen - for me, it's...

I'm not saying he never fought top contenders. On Firpo though, I'm not so sure how high he should've ranked at that time. His only notable wins...
Pete, what if I told you that Greb: -Did better against Meehan than Dempsey -Did better against Tunney than Dempsey -Did better against...
That's crazy. Bradley fights regularly, his fights are exciting and generally against good opposition. He shouldn't draw any less than 5k or even...
In boxing, nothing is a given. However, it should be noted that Greb went in several title eliminators - Dempsey fighting the loser of course....
Then why was he a full 7:1 underdog, despite basically drawing with Dempsey a few years earlier? I mean 7:1, that's a HUGE difference. Even...
