Makes me long for the days when Hearns/Leonard/Duran/ Benitez ruled the roost. Mayweather is certainly a very talented fighter no doubt but...
Reading these posts is like taking a history lesson! I'd love to see some film of Davis in action if there is any. They don't make 'em like that...
I favor Charles as well but not by early ko. I recently re watched Cooper/Holyfield and Burt came very close to pulling a rabbit out the...
Whatever made Ali think he could be competitive against a young fast Holmes is beyond me. He couldn't crack an egg shell at this point in his career.

I have to admit I didn't know too much about Steele other than the fact he was a champion and highly regarded so I did my homework and watched him...

Excellent article to say the least. Young never got the credit he deserved being overlooked by the bigger names in the division at the time. But...
Boxers heights are definitely tweaked a bit at times. I once walked right past Peter McNeely who was reporting to his probation officer in a trial...
As a previous post stated, the look on Ali's face as the verdict was being read said it all. He knew he lost that fight. I've re watched that...
What the hell was Oma doing with his hands down by his waist standing straight up with his chin out? I'd look good against a fighter who did that....
was one tough SOB....sorry for the fractured post.
Gotta favor a prime Frazier over most of the HW's listed. The only 2 that I think I would favor over him would be Liston and Foreman. I don't see...
A lot is said regarding Frazier being a one handed fighter but I don't think it's true. Frazier did rely on his left most of the time but he had a...
