I agree with your conclusion. RJJs era(1995-2010) was the best LHW era in many decades IMO. Tarver and Glen Johnson were both alphabet champs...
I put top 50. Have a hard enough time rating him in the 21st century. It sounds disrespectful to say hes not in the top 50 but theres a lot of...
Tarver, Clinton Woods and Gonzalez in that order because they are all 6 ft 2.
Jeffries already was considered the champ at this point via the Sharkey, Goddard and Jackson lineages. He just didn't have the Corbett one.
Paycheck, Musto and Jack Roper were noticeably worse than all of Louis's other title opponents. Paychecks 44-4 was mostly fluff but he knocked...
Norton v Ali 3, Young v Ali and Witherspoon v Holmes are big ones. It was the 1890s and its unclear how close the fight was or wasn't because no...
No neck is actually right on this one.
"Honestly, I don’t know how you live with yourself." I'm drowning in my tears. John L Sullivan holds that record by a country mile. Then theres...
The rematch answers this question pretty clearly. I believe if Braddock or Farr had encountered Louis at this time they could have done the same...
Your timeline is off. Foreman chose to fight Schulz instead of Tucker and Tucker lost to Seldon before the Foreman-Schulz fight. Foreman trying to...
The kicker is his 2 title opponents were 0-7 and 11-34 which is awful by any regional title standards. The records of Grimsleys opponents(and...
Its funny cause you're devaluing some of Darius's few top wins while making the case that RJJ should have fought him.
Tucker. A big theme of my "Tucker was underrated" song is that Tucker was the best HW when Spinks was champ and at the end of Holmes reign....
Probably mangagers. Theres a long history of fighters getting screwed out of "final eliminators". Interim champ is something solid and tangible.
Radchenko has the worst resume of anyone to gain a title shot in living memory. And I've been a supporter of the Bridgerweight project.
