In This Corner is necessary, if you haven't read it already. first hand accounts of champions discussing their careers and opponents up until the...
Dempsey, you say that about Braddock but how many people recovered from LOUIS dropping them? And Marciano surely hit the deck as well.
Bad ass. Thanks S-B!
Agreed Vic. I ended up going with Jofre because of his combinations. I also think his selection of sunday punches were better. He also had a...

Holyfield by decision. Don't think he has the type of finishing ability to KO Floyd. Holy wins on attrition, rarely does he land the great punch....
