It’s a nightmare matchup for Duran at any stage of his career imo. Too much height, too much reach, too much power.
Countries invest in their Olympic boxing programs but it’s not ground-up (like go find kids and train them from scratch) — maybe China is/was...
I told you not to mention my Greb career set.
Max Baer’s son Jethro’s Granny Clampett once fought a giant jackrabbit. [MEDIA]
When his knee got fixed, he fought again. What did you see different in him? He was shot at this point.

I keep reading Cinderella Man defenses of Baer as being the nicest guy in the world. What kind of man hits a poor, defenseless animal?
Somebody get George Foreman carrying a cow around on his shoulder, quickly. Also, Livingstone Bramble with his pet snake, which was named Rebel...
How does this one go? Tyson seemed pretty frisky early vs Williams but his punches didn’t have their previous devastating effect and he was...
Did Glazkov drop off the face of the earth after that fight? I know he blew out his knee, but athletes come back from knee surgery all the time....
