That whole Alpha male thing. Mix testosterone and fighting ability.

MMA guys are so cocky....Especially the teenage one's who workout at the local LA Fitness or 24 hr fitness and think they are the toughest dudes...
If Liston were fighting today, a lot of people would say that Liston, too, belongs in the light heavyweight division, and not in the heavyweight...
I'd say Morrison hit harder than the 1993 Foreman. Punch for punch, Morrison's one-shot power was at least a notch above old George's.

The staredown would have been something!!
Bowe did beat some good fighters after Holyfield though, guys like Donald and Hide, both of whom were skilled. But yeah, Holyfield is the shining...
