If the FOTC happened in 1968 or 1969, I still think Frazier would have caught Ali and possibly knocked him down more than once in his earlier...
If Tyson got a break and won the fight against Douglas, he probably would have fought, Holyfield, Bowe and possibly Razor Rudduck. Tyson was...
Evander Holyfield, Lennox Lewis, Andrew Golota, George Foreman and John Ruiz. Holyfield developed a reputation for headbutting during his...
