Anyone else care to give input?
You're joking about it, but in fact Johnson DID have a lot of fights when he was past it. In fact, he had 28 bouts after the Willard loss. When he...
Jones is a bit faster in my opinion. Both men obviously had a sick amount of speed, or more specifically: acceleration. What separates them mostly...

I'm surprised to see that many gave Jones zero chance to even make it out of the first few rounds with Foreman, who scored only one knockout in...
I agree that it's a career too brief to call it a legacy maker (as is Tunney's at HW in my opinion), but the one piece of evidence we have, does...
And Jones proved himself a level above average heavyweight fighters. If we're talking about MW's beating skilled 220lbs men then there may be...
