Now, I agree that Firpo at least partially shoved Dempsey out of the ring, but I don't think you're being reasonable in claiming that Dempsey...
Wlad has a similar style to Lewis, but has had a lot more fights than Lewis had at his age. Wlad is reasonably shopworn at 49-3, compared with...
He was down against Johnny Sudenberg numerous times in an early fight, and was dropped by Firpo twice, Tunney, and at least one or two others.
He was a World War II veteran and received a purple heart award after being wounded in combat. It was thought his career was over, but he instead...
I hear this fellow who goes by the name of Revolver and Homicidal Hank is able to prove for scientific fact who's going to win a fight. However,...
Why do you assume a really big puncher would've done the job? But yes, I'm sure Marciano could have been outboxed. Walcott wasn't too terribly...

They look more playful than angry during this exchange to me.
Yes, I think Peter's pure power is somewhat overrated, and he doesn't have much speed or skill with which to deliver, either. He's gone 10-1 with...
Extra! Extra! Lewis sets out on quest to tame the wilds of the West and discover the Northwest Passage! Entrusted with a faithful crew of several...
Of course you can't reasonably count the Spinks loss against Ali, because Ali was a shot fighter. But the same thing goes for for more than half...
Hopkins has never been stopped in over 15 years and 50 pro fights, and somehow I strongly doubt Wright's the man to do it.
They're mostly the same thing. RING generally recognizes people because they're linear champs. But overall, the linear title is the most important.
Langford was well past his prime for most of the Wills fights. And I don't consider being an ABC beltholder to effect a fighter's historical...
Now, again, the videos aren't fair. Liston and Marciano don't look as good on a highlight reel as Tyson, but it's mainly because all of Tyson's...
