I don't think Chris would have any answer for that jab. The more patient and methodical Sonny plays it, the sooner he wins it.
I think somebody just stated it perfectly. A punchers chance is not something to bet on. Give me the better fighter all day any day. He wasn't...
You actually make a great point. Composition is very important for a heavyweight. Too much or too little weight depending on height can actually...
There is little question Dempsey could hurt a super heavy. I'll never forget the first time I was really, badly hurt in the ring. I had just hit...
You can't. Rock has the stronger resume and the better career? Head to head, I'd bet my house on Liston, and I'd probably pick Sonny to beat...
Ray would have knocked him out under any circumstance apart from, maybe, a shorter distance. He embodied his hero that night. There was no way...
You still have great trainers. The biggest issue, as far as I can see in my own experience, is we now have an influx of horrible ones....
I agree. He sounds incredibly effective, but I doubt on film he would have looked all the much prettier than Calzaghe. Just a hunch.
Wouldn't have fixed his chin, which always proved fragile, and wouldn't have protected him from body shots. Tommy did gas, but he also looked...
Resume speaks loudly. He's clearly great, and whats more, one of the greatest ever. But I can't say whether or not he gives Ali trouble, or how...
This is about how I view it. Tony was a useful fringe contender. Ken Norton was rather consistently one of the three or four best heavyweights...
This is a solid point. Without seeing Greb, its hard to say if he had the skills and habits to trouble Ali.
I myself can't run. My old knees just can't take it. I spend atleast an hour a day in a pool, though, and I seldom seriously tire in the ring....
He didn't drop his hands and square up as much when he did his own rope a dope after Ike cracked him. It probably contributed greatly to him...
Dude was a bomber. Every shot was a haymaker. Mean, wanted to hurt people, and made sure every punch he through had that intention behind it....
