Pep, hands down.
Moore, Harold Johnson, Joey Maxim, Slapsy Maxie Rosenbloom, Willie Pastrano. Holyfield, Spinks? You guys tell me. Bob Foster-Cooper would be a...
Harold would probably beat Liston in 1956 and lose in 1963. No great insight there, but I just got back from 3-1/2 weeks in Australia (from...
Actually, can't it just as well be said that these organizations are in reality equally non-legitimate? What makes you say that they are all...
Exhibitions might have been the case for elite heavyweights like champions Dempsey, Baer and Louis at the tail end of his career, but the average...
I can't remember watching Roy Jones, even in clip form. I did attend the 2005 Mayweather v. Sharmba Mitchell fight in Portland, OR, but obviously...

Rodriguez. I'd add Denny Moyer's scalp to Luis' resume. Nobody else came even close to dominating and destroying a prime Moyer (or even a...
Louis v. Baer; Dempsey v. Willard; Zale v. Graziano 3; Marciano v. Walcott 1; Moore v. Durelle 1; Basilio v. Demarco 1 & 2, Frazier v. Ali 1 for...
Basilio was in over his head against middleweights, but he was a very good fighter as a welterweight. At that weight, he would be a tough fight...
I like Layne's chances at his best and he was at his best in the early '50s. Lots of other good calls, but some of those were at their best in the...
If the rules are enforced I would go for Zale. But realistically when were the rules ever enforced against Fullmer? The referees seemed to...
He died with dementia. He took some of the hardest shots ever landed by a fighter in his two bouts against Patterson. I vote for those shots...
Jack Hurley to Billy Petrolle in his debut fight in Madison Square Garden on February 18, 1926 against Sammy Vogel when Billy came back to his at...
