I agree; Duran quit in disgust as much as anything. Leonard used similar clowning tactics against Hagler, too.
Zale wins by hitting Eubank repeatedly to the body and putting pressure on for 15 rounds. I am a big fan of Eubank, but I think Zale was too...
Pavlik was ****. Totally overrated, like Calzaghe but not even as good.
The more I watch Holmes, the better he gets. Even in his 30's he was very quick. He must be rated with the best, surely? I think he would have...

Very well put. :good
Haye has genuine power and could hurt Dempsey. The problem I have with Haye is the Klitschko fight; he was unwilling to pay the price to get...
But Cooper had a shaky chin and Ali never looked like flooring him. The point I am trying to make is for some on here there is no allowing for the...
That's all I am saying. I am not anti-Ali in any way, it's just that the Cooper fight got me thinking about Louis and other smaller heavyweights...
I watched their second fight again today after another poster mentioned it on another thread. I wanted to check I had seen the same fight or if I...
Quite agree, guys. You can see José Torres at ringside going ballistic at the ineptitude of the ref! The referee in the Benn-McClellan fight...
