cool Liston pic, by the way!
I agree with you. While I no doubt agree that Foreman was a big puncher, I'm with you in that it does seem that his power gets overblown a bit,...
I thought Toney won that fight. His boxing skills were superb. I still think it's amazing how a guy who started out as a middleweight could move...
Marciano was probably 5'10 1/4" in his boxing shoes. His bare height was probably 5'9" ish....
Maybe it's just because I watched the Rocky Marciano documentary on ESPN last night that I'm feeling a little pro Rocky Marciano, but I think...

Rewatch the 3rd round, where George was badly stung by a single left hook and then walloped by a series of shots by Holyfield that had Foreman...
At least an 8. He had a very, very good chin. He took monstrous shots from MOrrison that would have layed out most other heavyweights, but he was...
Holmes' ranking at #9 by the WBC was bogus. However, in his semi-defense, he was not gone from the sport for 10 years like Foreman. Foreman had a...
