That's the thing though, Young and Spinks fought old and shopworn versions of Ali and Holmes, if the point of the thread is to make a comparison...
Very moving story, great stuff, keep posting!
Tyson was stopped five times, Ali one, the odds would not be on tyson stopping ali. I do think it would be a decision though. I dont think it is a...

Lewis should take this pretty easily, but I don't think George would be in any real danger. Foreman was slow as hell but still very powerfull, I...
