Archie always had his excuses. Even in the 80s he was claiming it was the refs fault that he didn't KO Marciano and he'd never forgive him in all...
Punch doesn't land on the chin
Patterson was 32 and on a good run having beat Cooper, Chuvalo and Machen outside the Ali loss. He would imo go onto deserve the Ellis decision to...
How does he do this when his idea of pressure is throwing a slowish jab every 5 seconds that Jones may just slip time and again? What happens if...

It doesn't matter, he dominanted one of the greatest ever MWs. I don't buy for a minute the 90s/00s was a weaker era than the 70s. Guys like...
Grant was seen as the heir apparent. At least he was being hyped as such I still can't believe Grant got up from the last KD of round 1....
He very easily does. Hopkins is a greater fighter than Monzon himself and he could throw 90 punches a round back then while still being...
Schmelling is a better technician with better head movement. Tunney the quicker footwork and maybe faster hands, not that there's much in it. Both...
Because he wasn't there that long and he was avoided. Even then he has the much better single win.
