"Walcott's biggest wins were over Charles" But Walcott beat lots of guys who were much bigger than Charles. Charles was simply better than the...
"I don't understand what nationality has to do with this." Nothing, really. It is just that the judges who are scoring this fight for Vitali are...
Vitali's inept performance against the largely stationary Byrd, missing somewhere between 75% to 80% of his punches to a man relying totally on...
