I think I'm somewhat out of my element here but I'll risk an opinion anyway. If we're talking about a streetfight, or a barfight or back alley...
One word.....MONEY....The old timers had to fight for thier suppers. Todays fighters don't. At least the top notch ones don't. Plus if you're...
Have to agree with prime here. George's only chance is to end this early like the 1st or 2nd round early. If he doesn't Joe takes him in 4 or 5....
What speed and what power! Leonard was something at his best and would be a match (and maybe more) for any WW past or present. Robinson vs....
I think it was Alex Wallu who said that Tillis gave us the blueprint for beating Tyson. I thought the fight was close but that Tyson edged it.
If only we had even one piece of film evidence on Greb in action to better answer this debate. I'm only speculating here but I think Conn and Greb...

Marciano could punch..no question. But he was hitting men a lot smaller than the fighters that Holyfield fought. If you took men like Ted Lowry,...
As much as it pains me to say it I have to go with a prime Bowe here. Size isn't everything but size and ability account for a lot and a prime...
The greater disparity in size between HW and LHW these days makes such a proposal unlikely. A 175lb LHW 50-100 years ago wasn't giving away as...
Not even close. This Hagler would've beaten Leonard. It's no great secret that Leonard waited until the time was right to fight Hagler. He wasn't...
Hagler was something. At his best I feel he was the greatest MW of them all. He was the complete fighter..Could box, slug had a cast iron chin and...
I'm thinking of the version of Foreman that destroyed Frazier and Norton. Cherry picking of course but that version I feel would've been too much...
We know that a young Foreman is going to come right out and try to destroy Rocky from the opening bell ala Frazier. The big question is whether or...
I wish there was more film of Bob in his prime to accurately gauge how he would do against later greats. Word of mouth and written reports can...
