Holyfield only had success when Lewis took breathers. Very easy work. Lennox's only enemy in those bouts was his lack of roadwork
It still skews the perception Well there's Merqui Sosa and Gonzalez. Not elite but of that description. Hopkins was also a 100 punch a round...
This is delusional Holyfield fanboys fantasy. Both Lewis fights were borderline shutouts for Lennox outside of when he took breathers
Mayweather clearly beat Castillo. Leonard clearly beat Hagler. And I don't believe for a minute a pre-civil rights black man gets a gift against a...
It's not the eye test failing, it's styles make fights and fighters adapting and improving after an early career defeat. It's kind of like Greb...
No it doesn't. I don't think Duran looks the best ever on the eye test. I'd still rank him below Mayweather. The assessment of him is on the basis...

Duran was in his prime, certainly at the age of 29 when he lost to Leonard 6 months after his career best win. The Cuevas and Moore wins highlight...
So why would Hagler honour the agreement? It makes no sense, he has zero reason not fight his optimal fight plan As for Hagler being a master...
In some ways higher - never lost to Leonard or Hearns, yet beat Leonard who would beat Hearns and Hagler. Beat every man he faced
I don't think anyone outworked McCallum in his prime
I disagree on overall wins and that aside Briggs hadn't beaten a decent opponent for 4 years before the fight. He's one of Vitalis weaker wins
