Cooney wins. Cobb doesn't put up much offense.
The Foreman of '73 could be quick, even though he tends to wing his punches. I just don't see Tyson standing up to him for long. Tyson was well...
Agreed. Norton would have problems as well.... Too bad Bonavena didn't fight the right people!
Holmes would outbox him for a short time. Foreman would take him out within a few rounds. If Holmes could somehow get past six, which I doubt, he...
I see Bonavena winning late. Bonavena could take a punch. Shavers would get tired like he did against Cobb.
Who wins this in about '73-'75? I'll go with Bonavena.

Frazier was not weak in the event. He used NO TECHNIQUE WHATSOEVER! It's a timed leg drive and press. He didn't know what he was doing. If he...
It seems like this was the only time they could have met. Tua wasn't around in the late 80's. Well, let's say that both fighters are on that...
Ali would let his weight get WAY up and then work his ass off to get it back down. The onset of the Parkinsons and taking thyroid medication to...
I must say. All great comments. No doubt with the lack of stations then, a (non- pay-per-view)heavyweight televised championship bout was huge.
This was a fight that should have been. Let's say June 1996. Tua's previous fight was a KO of John Ruiz in one. Tyson's was a TKO of Frank Bruno...
