If ever there were a more appropriate title for a fight (i.e. thrilla in manila) that would be it for a Mercer vs prime Muhammad Ali fight
This is also a valid alternative ending.
When I read this I started thinking of the Roy Jones Jr vs Richard Hall fight [MEDIA] Ali vs Mercer could look something like that without all...

That may have been in context to other opponents Ali fought. But Louis had nimble, even Holyfield like footwork when he needed it. Like vs Max...
Fraizer could turn into a nightmare of a fight for Louis, but Louis was just as accurate, almost as quick with the hands and as adept at...
In the 80s, guys like Tucker, Thomas, Weaver, Tubbs, Carl Williams, Douglas Witherspoon could have potentially defeated Quarry (or they may...
I'd favor him vs Braddock and Carnera as well. But, I will say this, Quarry wouldn't be an "unbeatable" fighter to them. They'd still have...
