True but an Ali, McCall, Foreman, Tyson, Chuvalo and Holyfield take that shot for me. I am hypothesising that if Charles replaced Evan Fields...
To be fair, I later raised the possibility that he would develop the trap and neck musculature to increase his resistance to the big shots. I...
Less reach and shorter but better two handed arsenal, slicker movement and better defensive attributes - also his ability to time his counters...
The discussion was merely the point that even if Charles was roided up like Evan, he wouldn’t have Evan’s chin - so can we assume that he survives...
Agreed on the chin. I ponder whether we know that Holyfield’s chin is so great because at times he fought so recklessly and had to show his chin...

At his best, he was a throwback to the Archie Moore’s and Ezzard Charles’, fast counterpuncher, very fluid and well-timed and chosen combinations...
Check the weight difference when SRR first faced La Motta. Floyd wouldn’t get in there with a GGG type fighter let alone face him 6 times in the...
Not arguing that Charles was a great fighter. You’ll never hear me argue it and he’s one of my favourites, above Holyfield. What I am arguing is...
Castillo likely beat Floyd in their first. Floyd as a WW likely wouldn’t get into the ring with GGG. Robinson weighing a stone less got into...
This is silly. Who I think he beat is who everyone else more or less thinks he beat. I guess you think the verdict in Lewis vs Holyfield I was...
This is my point - born in later eras, with the same natural abilities, do they not receive the benefits of generation size gains, better access...
He beat Ramirez - it is widely acknowledged that he was the better man against Chavez. I find your reasoning disingenuous. Pete was a better LW...
Agreed that he is a better defensive fighter - however, this is the one division where one punch can change everything. If I take a roided...
