This is it. Holyfield could be punched out of the textbook and go toe to toe, forehead to forehead to prove his macho. When he doubled and...
I really like this. Question, are you ranking them in terms of pure punch power, concussive power, punch mechanics, or a mixture of all three? I...
This fight shows Ali holding ring centre, boxing off the jab and pivot, keeping Sonny chasing the head with the jab, which Ali slips both inside...
It's a bad rendition of a famous Marvin Hagler quote, "It's tough to get out of bed to do roadwork at 5 am when you've been wearing silk pyjamas"...
He wouldn't come back. Lennox was smart and didn't lose to anyone he didn't beat. It's hard to get up and go for a run when you sleep in silk...

Look to Ali boxing off the jab and pivot against Liston, when he stops bouncing around the ring and takes away Liston's jab with more subtle head...
That's a great point about ref count inconsistency. Most 10 second counts are probably between 1 - 1.5 secondish intervals, so with the Buster...
Holy was the real deal - Evan Fields was the simulated compromise ... The size of his head, neck and trapezus muscles in comparison to his...
Yep, partly bigger guys, partly the fact that despite the elixirs getting him to an impressive physique, you can't bulk up the cruiserweight...
Whilst true, and despite me being a massive Ali fan, I don't think that any other fighter gets the fight called in the way it was. I dunno whether...
