Byrd and Ruiz were third raters fights no one wanted to see fighting for a title because they weren't good enough. Anyone with eyes saw Golota...
GGG is a class above, I'd go with a late KO For GGG yes, for Cotto less so with an Alvarez fight. Wonder if he got offered an FMJ rematch down...
For what it's worth McClellan is said to have beaten Tony Tucker up in sparring
Yea '91 was a better time to take on Rudduck as he was ranked above Lennox then. I think Maloney would have taken the fight if he got a shot,...
Aside from his smile he looks horrible....boxing wise.
It was how it was considered at the time, none of those men earned their title shots 1) So why not face Rudduck instead, ok it was a homecoming...
I'm not sure he is, the Moorer win slightly trumps the Mercer win, but not by much and the manner is less impressive. I think Holmes probably...
Foreman and Holmes were matched carefully, they didn't have too many ring wars in their careersto age them and didn't really have any great wins...
Barrera beat the enchiladas out of Morales, a massive robbery and anyone who says otherwise doesn't have a clue about the sport and should...
Remember Golota who Lennox put away in record time, he beat Ruiz and Byrd past his prime. Lennox was paid by King not to defend against them....
Holyfield was seen as avoiding challenges when he took on Cooper, Foreman and Holmes instead of Rudduck and Lennox. A shame he wasted some of his...
No Lennox has the best HW resume in boxing history, American bias discriminates against him. The only challenge he didn't make was Ibeabuchi...
McClellan early or Carpentier late, probably McClellan within 5 though
I think that's harsh. He still was a legit contender who earned his title shot by beating other contenders and then beat the great unbeaten champ....
WOW Young Archie, he has veins popping out of his thighs, good vascularity probably indicates he was very fit and is 1 of the reasons he aged so well.
