Yes, absolutely. Machen hung with Liston for 12 tough rounds and, while well past his prime, was stopped on his feet after lasting 10 rounds with...
I don't think many champions would have been able to stop Tillis at 19. Patterson might have done it. All of the other champions peaked well into...
That's hardly fair. Janitor didn't say "he would be champ in another era," but rather that he could have been champ in another era with a bit of...
Terrell was never world heavyweight champion. Certainly Shavers could beat virtually any champion, with his level of punching power. When it...
It's worth pointing out here that, while Greb did beat those guys, several of them also beat him. It isn't as though Greb tore through guys who...
Um.... are you thinking of Max Schmeling?

I agree. Carpentier never had the kind of elite-level success, in any weight class, that these guys did. By the way, what did you think of my...
Like his razor-thin decisions over legends such as Wladimir Virchis, an old John Ruiz and Nicolai Valuev, which represent all three of his prior...
A. Douglas didn't beat Tyson nearly so badly as Baer beat Carnera. B. Tyson and Douglas were not otherwise-similar-level fighters. One can see...
Yes, not a very significant fight, really. And I was more retorting your point that Williams did better than Patterson against Liston than trying...
What did he say about them?
