Tunney has no chance. How's he gonna even hit Foreman? Foreman had a helluva jab. It was very fast. No way Tunney gets close enough to touch him.
If it was possible to rate him at heavyweight P4P and overlay the skills he possessed during his prime years as a middleweight and light...
My thought exactly. Most of the stuff about resumes is overblown. Just compiling lists about how many supposed "Hall of Famers" a fighter fought...

All this X stopped Y faster than Z stopped Y stuff is meaningless without examining the context of what stage the fights occurred in the careers...
I'm in over my head, but I'm trying to follow this thread. What is "z mandibula?" I've googled it with no success.
It's been a long time since I've seen a post fraught with so many glaring errors. Contrary to your claim, Liston stopped Williams twice within...
They match up close skillwise. I think Thomas (at his very best) was bigger and rangier and that would carry the day. If you chose random points...
