The Ali of 1975 still has enough skill and smarts left to decision a prime Bowe. Ali's handspeed was still really fast in Manila and his jab...
Interesting thought,Drew. I somehow think,though,that Bobick would still have been beaten before he gets a title fight. I envisage Earnie...

Or gone into action films as a premier career choice.
Providing Marvin does n't come in all cautious as he sometimes did against elite fighters,I back him to beat Carlos by a close UD. Both guys...
Maybe a roughouse type of guy like Chuck Wepner. Muhammad took a hell of a risk with his health in that exhibition. Biggest mistake of his...
I concur. Lennox would have to weather a massive storm early on,though. Providing he keeps his defence tight I'd trust him to do that.

One of the best 168 lb men ever but not THE best. That accolade goes to Roy Jones. Even Joe would admit that Roy was way over the hill when they...
And Larry came close to being a FOUR time champ. Oliver McCall only just beat him!
We'd have been deprived of two of my fave heavyweight bouts of the 1970s: Ali-Norton II & Holmes-Norton.
