Considering that Snipes, awkward as he was, could always jab, double jab and then move at the very least, it is one of the great mysteries of the...
I wanted to see James Scott vs Saad Muhammad or Saad against Eddie Mustafa. I'd have taken Holmes-Coetzee too, Weaver-Cooney for the WBA title,...
It's a fascinating potential matchup and a good thread topic. Weaver demonstrated incredible stamina, heart, and recuperative powers in the...
Thank you for linking this! Always wanted to see Schutte in action.
The Tyson worship continues from smart people like Seamus and HE. King absolutely did set up Rodriquez-Foreman with the belief that Rodriquez...
If they were fights between fighters no one knew about, you'd say Williams won clearly and maybe Witherspoon got edged at the end.

I agree with Coopman. I wish I could accurately relate the JPC story from Hauser's Ali bio. Something like they needed a sparring partner for...
While I'm not sliding into the Devil's Advocate seat, I think the '68 Quarry would be much faster and capable than the general picture most carry...
I remember the Gordon-Berbick fight well. Gordon simply outworked- in his stiff, over-muscled way- a sluggish Berbick who couldn't keep up. I...
Anubis, I was very surprised that Spinks held up against Mercado and seemingly was not the least phased by his strength or punching power. I...
