Who cares what the writers and editors of a magazine think anyway? What’s the big deal. Yes Merqui Sosa. Not Joe Bloggs from McDonalds.
You don’t seem to grasp how good high level competitive boxers are compared to, say, yourself or Joe Blow. These aren’t normal people plucked from...

I thought he beat Collins. Very good fighter.
Sugar Ray Leonard was clueless with Sherry, sending him over to face Eubank having not actually faced anyone as a pro yet….and picking Pepe Correa...

Eubank was the first to admit he used boxing as a business to feed his egotistical lifestyle first and foremost. He was always adamant he would...
It’s impossible. European champion was always highly ranked, and Wharton was ranked #1 with WBC and WBO at the time of Benn-Eubank II and was paid...
Close was a good neat boxer with world class pedigree against Maske and Dariusz in the ams. Schommer was a mismanaged fighter with am wins over...
