Rank in order thiese seven 80's heavyweights. I feel on a good night any of them might've upset Holmes (except maybe Berbick). I'd say: 1)...
Norton only lost two fifteen rounders, the other Ali loss was 12 rounds. Fres Oquendo as been on the bad side of many a questionable...
did you see the rematch?
Or losing to Evangelista. I respect Snipes though. He was The Contender....he deserved to be called a contender, not a fringe contender, not...
All three of them were inconsistent, which adds to the fascination. There's no doubt Young was the most skillful, but power and mental toughness...

Rocky all the way. Head to head I think Holyfield would probably beat him, but to compare Marciano's perfect record against the now rather ugly...
Not a very interesting contest, IMO, but I think Berbick has a far greater legacy and would win. Barrett never really won a big fight...Berbick...
My, my...what a lively discourse! Boxed Ears is a hilarious and talented writer...I give him that, gladly. I don't agree with him that it's a...
As much as I like Lyle and dislike Ali, it's hard to make a case for Ron after 46 unanswered punches. He was dazed and confused. A standing 8...
I lean towards Bruno also. His chin wouldn't be a factor against Byrd, and he just might storm Chris out of there. There were a number of guys...
