Ill go with Bonavena too. I think Norton is one of the most overrated fighters in history based on his win over Ali. He had a well known glass jaw...
Was Kotelnik-Alexander shown in Australia? If so was the entire card shown? How about the national anthem?
Yeah Cory was pretty upset about it. He said he wasnt even hit when the ref stopped it and that they were going to protest and try to get a...

I dont know. I just dont see it. Yes Joey Giardello was a good fighter when Carter fought him but nowhere near his best. It was great that...
Greb was making a name as a contender in 1917 but I dont consider him the top guy in the division. Maybe top five at best. He lost pretty handily...
