Well, for the first 5 or 10 seconds anyway. After that, he will be making snow angels on the canvas for the rest of the 1st round until it's...
The only footage I've seen of him, he's basically getting hit with everything, and constantly staggering around the ring. Based on the Louis...
Yes, according to the write-up of the bout on Boxrec, Simon put up a pretty good fight. I wish there was footage of this. I'd be genuinely...
Worth mentioning though that Simon actually made it into the 13th round in his first fight with Louis. That's pretty incredible considering...

You mean arms and legs? I don't think Buddy's worked as well. The distance between Foreman and Baer is kind of hard to even put into words.
I can't get Buddy's rematch with Louis out of my head. The way Buddy's head was getting bounced around reminded me of one of those paddles with...
