This is a whacky, whacky take. No Patterson all 190-ish lbs of him is not dropping Larry Holmes multiple times (didn’t only Mike Tyson do that?)...
He has an OVERALL RANKING of 90! On the undisputed video game, that’s higher then Floyd Pattersons and on par with J Dempsey.
What’s yours? I’ve never done a list before I think besides this one, I only have a HW one that I occasionally tinker with. I’m a casual fan.
It’d be stopped in the 7th you think? I think Joshua was as good as Lyle, Norton and M Foster / Bonavena almost positive he’d last later and win...
He was always on PED’s he went up to HW by not cutting weight. Holy himself said he was huge for the weight “a monster”

Not bad pretty normal…mines a bit whacky Louis Ali Holmes Lewis Wlad Holyfield Tyson Frazier Foreman Marciano

A Robinson type talent of his time, I see him gaining mass appeal, well dressed “aw-shucks” (Gene Fullmer was popular for this) and he was a man...
Langford is also a better “coloured” guy for the times, good manners and “inoffensive” if he did become the champ the people would wind up loving...
I don’t know who is underrated but some fighters with good footwork that spring to mind are… Barney Ross, Orlando Canizales and the great Napoles.
He always did, Louis’s footwork is text book and all the dingbats saying he had “slow feet” are really showing what they don’t know.
Holyfield would still be significantly bigger but he’d be a significantly worse (in some aspects) boxer then he’d become… Holyfield was fed to...
A former 175lber jail bird beat Holy on my card with more pronounced disadvantages than Marciano.
You don’t need to be a monster puncher to hurt Floyd Patterson it’d be a matter of accuracy and style. I also don’t believe it’s downplay when we...
