I watched Hagler-Mugabi the other night. Hagler was listed as 5 9 1/2 and Mugabi was list as 5 8 1/2. When they went head-to-head for the ref's...
Yeah, I wasn't suggesting it was necessarily close... just comparing someone (Hopkins) who is considered a top 10 middleweight by most people who...
Talking strictly about greatness in an achievement and resumé sense, I don't see a case for GGG in the top 5. I think the top 4 of Greb, Robinson,...
Oh, no doubt, Scar. I felt he either wasn't focused (possible as this was him testing the waters at lightweight with a potential showdown with the...

Felix Trinidad against Oscar. I scored it a draw but most people thought Oscar won.
Parlov was no mug and Marvin just dominated him.
Johnson-Lopez was probably the most exciting fight that didn't happen in that era. Thankfully, there were plenty of other exciting ones to go round.
You uncovered a gem with this fight, Scar. I have a list of the best fights of the 90s and I didn't have that one on there - it is now. And props...
Harry Greb - the greatest fighter the world has never seen.
