I agree with you. Although I have done my fair share of "Foreman basing" on this site, George Foreman was actually a big reason for my becoming a...
You don't think Bowe was a better body puncher? Better than Ali? Bowe's left hook was above Larry Holmes', and way above Ali's!
Good analysis. To further muddy the waters, I would say that a guy like Riddick Bowe, speaking strictly fundamentally wise, was better than both...
A chance? Yes! Holmes would have been a tough fight for a prime Ali, but Ali would have been a nightmare for Holmes. Ali's speed and quickness...

I don't see how the Chris Byrd fight could keep Vitali from a high all-time ranking. Vitali was dominating Chris Byrd and had won almost every...
