Years ago I read an article where Joe commented that Sonny never took heroin.
Not sure how it came about. There were some vicious verbals going to and fro between them. A fight looked likely at one point but Eddie lost to...
I remember Eddie writing an article in one of the boxing magazines,circa 1981,and he mentioned that he could n't stand Larry and that he could...
Like yourself I feel Holyfield would have given Muhammad a more competitive fight but would ultimately fall short.
Bellew has got a very good shot but I can't help feeling that De Leon may outsmart him.
Good post. That's why I'll always be in Ken's corner when some claim that he was out of place on 'Champions Forever'
I can't see middle nineties Evander beating the best seventies versions of the elite of the division - Ali,Frazier,Foreman,Norton etc and later on...
After lhis sluggish display in their first fight,Lennox Lewis looking awesome beating Hasim Rahman in their rematch.
Good one,Fergy. Yeah that was Duran's last great victory.
I rank Joe within the Top 10 ATG heavies. I'd make him a 50/50 shot with Holmes - one of those match ups I find hard to make my mind up about....
Good post,Phil.
Very true. The Ali of Zaire would have scored a very clear decision over the 1977 Earnie. Maybe even stopped him late in the bout.
With Joe it was all about unfulfilled potential. Bruno,Joshua and Cooper all fought to theirs. At one point I would have said that had he fought...
I wish that Muhammad had avoided as many of Earnie's shots as he did George's.
Very probably it would come down to Joshua and Bruno but Bugner had the ability to beat them all. Whether he would or not - That is the question.
