It is when you've got it.
If he was killing him then Mercado would have been too effed up to continue wouldn't he? Where was Shavers's hellacious power then?
That he was fighting in a far tougher era Tua would.
You're the sort of person who'd get some poor schmuck repeatedly KOed after falling for your pie in the sky bullsh!t about 'old time skills' and...
We do have it in Tyson Fury, and everyone hates his guts.
It didn't take a particularly durable kind to survive a Shavers right hand. Just ask Bernardo Mercado.
How can anyone realistically mount an argument for Galento winning this? Tua knocks that fat lump unconscious. Galento was fcuking awful.
His power was above average but it wasn't like he just touched people and they never got up. Lots of guys survived his power, not even...
Shavers is one of the most overrated punchers in history. Perhaps the most overrated.
Tua has brutal knockout wins against Moorer, Ruiz, Maskaev and Oquendo. The first two names alone put him above Galento.
That wouldn't develop strength, it'd break his hands.
Haye would get wasted in today's division.
Heavyweight boxing's hardly on fire right now.
Why not?
This wasn't a fifty fifty fight at all. Almost everyone picked Lacy to win, in most cases via brutal stoppage.
