Ali's best weight was the 238 he weighed for Berbick! hehe j/k
Leon had some skill. He was a good pressure fighter - a swarmer - that didn't have a real big punch, but he hit fairly hard. His winning the...
Beautiful post! I agree with everything you put forth. Tyson was an awesome fighter at his best. I never was a big "Tyson fan" per se, but I...

I just don't see it. Holmes still looked quick and agile against Tyson. He was lighter, and he moved just as well - or even better - than the...
The Ali/Holmes example you used is nonsensical in terms of analyzing Tyson/Holmes. Ali was already showing signs of Parkinson's by the time he...
Do you honestly think Holmes was any better against Mercer and Holyfield than he was against Tyson? Do you think he had more skill or was any more...
I don't think it's desperation at all. It's just being analytical and judging the Tyson-Holmes fight with a rational eye. Holmes had not had a...

I agree. I don't think Tyson gets as much credit for his win over Holmes as he should. And Larry Holmes' fans tend to downplay his fight with...
It would be a tough fight to pick. But I have a feeling that Tyson just might be able to stop George. Tyson's speed, power and delivery were...
Iran Barkley when he was a heavyweight. Mean lookin' mutha!
