Personally I wouldn't want to be trained by someone who is out of shape, unless they were a genuine guru mastermind character. It's probably no...
The referee could have disqualified both fighters for holding but it was a good fight anyway. They held a lot but they punched a lot too. Heavy...
I think AJ probably gasses out and gets stopped in the 11th or 12th round. Against a prime Vitali probably gasses out in 7 or 8 rounds.
Yes but I wouldn't expect Marciano to dominate "the 60", "the 70s" or "the 80s" because he dominated for about 3 or 4 years of the 1950s.
They were both overrated, both massive favourites. Makhmudov probably would have started as a favourite against Parker then too.
Those are all good points but Byrd especially and Haye to lesser extent, did beat heavyweights and did weigh 215 pounds or so. We can throw...
Evander Holyfield knocking out Buster Douglas is a better win than any Usyk has at heavyweight. And is not even rated as a great win because...
The remarkable thing is how British boxing promoters and broadcasters have managed to out-do the AmerIcans in hyping the heavyweights. With the...
His heavyweights wins are being well over-rated. The (arguably close) wins against Fury are not better than Mike Tyson beating Tucker and old...
That's a fair point. So there's no chance Usyk can ever demonstrate how he could dominate a good heavyweight division over an entire decade in a...
Virtually everyone on the other general world boxing forum 24 seems to think Usyk is the best heavyweight ever.
He hasn't always been 38. We can take a more active younger version from 2016-'18. Where's the evidence that the man who fought Briedis would...
Exactly. Both were good wins because they were underdogs. Both Wilder and Makhmudov were considered very dangerous despite limiting factors.
To dominate any of those era he would have to fight 3, 4 or 5+ times a year for at least 6 years straight, and win almost every time. If he's...
Berbick, Smith or Tucker All coming off very good (career best) wins recently when they fought Mike Tyson.
