Well, well well, the prodigal fight returns. I’ve mentioned in a few threads how keen I have been in the last several years to see Pipino Cuevas...

That wasn’t the cruiserweight version of either. I think the Holyfield of Tillis/Dokes/Pinklon still comfortably makes 200 (which we’re going to...
Fair enough. I agree on his inconsistencies catching up in real time. I would say, however, that peak cruiserweight Holyfield beats peak...
Let’s talk about Alfred “Ice” Cole. Apart from sharing a first name with Batman’s butler, Cole was 26-1 (with his one defeat immediately avenged)...

If we separate out the 190/200 era, we have to do that for a lot of other divisions. Lightweight settled at 135 pounds I think in 1920. We didn’t...
I think you’re way hung up on nationality = bias as if the WBA bagmen put Stanley Christodoulou and Waldimir Schmidt in, they’re neutral....
