Isn't that what you're supposed to do, use your strengths to beat your opponents? How is Floyd any different since he uses his defense, which...
Did I compare how they both did against Floyd? No. Gatti was 32 against a 28 years old Floyd, Ortiz was 24 (I think) against a 34 years old Floyd,...
Ortiz wasn't much bigger than Gatti, and if we're comparing their speed and skills I gotta go with Gatti.

Not sure what you mean by 'body of work', cause boxrec has both of them at 6'0" height, but Tunney has a 5" longer reach. However, I agree that...

In my book, a good counterpuncher waits for his opponent to attack, make him miss and then land his own punches on his opponent. Quarry was a...
Damn, that's ugly. Do you know how did Brown recover after that fight? Surprised nobody mentioned this....
I'd really appreciate some opinions on this topic from boxing fans, about who would be the best counterpuncher heavyweight ever. A top5 would be...
