No one? I considered Foreman the real World Champion. A very weak World Champion who I feel had a disgraceful reign. But the World Champion...
Holmes - Shavers II was already on the books for late September when Larry fought his "tune up" against Weaver. Earnie earned that rematch by way...

Norton. People say now that Norton was on the downslide, but nobody thought that at the time. Norton was thought to be the best in the world in...
I forgot about Rahman II. Talk about a definitive performance!
