In that case neither was Lewis, he was 35 and underprepared against Rahman, at high altitude where he was gassed and breathing hard, and he got up...
Marciano had a bad back, that or something would have caught up with him as he got older, injuries would have kicked in, he would be slower and...
Well that depends who you have in your top 10, because Tyson, Dempsey and Jack Johnson were ko'd by single blows. Louis was twice ko'd by...
I think Ali is big, skilled and quick enough to hold his own, against both Wlad and Lennox it would be a close competitive fight I'd say the...
Change my pick to Forrest, the jab, speed and range of Forrest is too much and he's the better puncher
Probably ranks the lowest of the 'Very Good or Great' threads, his resume is very thin. Still it depends where you draw the line, he's an outright...

Which maybe somewhat believable if we didn't have footage of Dempsey being hit cleanly time and again. With respect I don't think you really...
Why Tunney hit him at will, Meehan and Miske outboxed him, the wide punching slow Firpo hit him very clean, Brennan couldn't miss him with the...
All of Dempsey's opponents hit him hard enough to stop him in his tracks or hurt him. Tua takes allot of punches on his gloves and rolls with the...
Shown to great effect against Tunney and when he was bounced off the canvas by Firpo and Fireman. A classic take a punch to land a punch fighter.
So you're picking the fighter that keeps his hands up then :yep
Gibbons certainly doesn't box nearly aswell on the backfoot as Toney and is very 1 handed, left hook based making him a bad style to face Dempsey....
Well it's not as simple as that and Jones fundamentals are better than given credit for. His punching technique for example is better than Ali's....
I always picked Duran in this match up, but the more I see of Pacquaio against pressure boxers the more I give him some sort of shot. The more you...
