Since Mayweather is not a natural welterweight, i think the size difference won't be that big a factor. But we'll have to see, usually people will...
I agree, it seems that at higher weights (140, 147), Floyd's workrate is quite a bit lower. At 130/135 he was a beast who often averaged over 60...
This is something that has always happened and always will. People always remember the times of yesteryear with somewhat rose tinted glasses....
Liston wasn't invincible, either. Marshall (an unranked LHW) knocked him down. It was early in his career, but Rocky fought an 9-0 and 15-0 guy in...
I'm picking Marciano by bruising 11th round TKO. Marciano takes one hell of a shot. So does Liston, but i think he does so in a Tyson-esque way,...

I wasn't particularly charmed by their first fight and considered the rematch a foregone conclusion if i've ever seen one. I already know the...
Well in your case i know that you know the whereabouts of that business since your Thai trip. :shock:
Some people believe it, but i don't buy it. If you watch the film, you'll see Liston throw dynamite left hooks, some of the hardest he'd ever...
I think Williams stands a better chance here than most do. He could hit quite a bit, and Foreman during his prime, rarely took punches from...
Let's not pretend you haven't done that. ;)

How about this for a fact: 1) Dempsey got a painful beating from a black man in 1916, John Lester Johnson. 2) Dempsey never fought a black man...
Some more quotes from the article: 'Jack Dempsey, conqueror of Fulton, took refuge behind the "color" line.' Note the quotation marks around the...
Tarver basically gave away rounds 5-8 by doing **** all. And looking back, he gave away the fight there. He looked tentative and intimidated...
