No idea where my perception of events is coming from? Let’s see. In the lead up to the Cooper fight, Ali repeatedly referred to Cooper as a...
Don’t feel bad Loud. I think it was a Mexican Bantam that Tex Cobb said had knocked him out at one time - of course his mates were swinging the...
Cheers mate.
Some fair points. There’s a lot here that isn’t black and white. However, the crux of our opposing positions is the question as to whether...
True, Rocky would’ve been considered small. Although, his chances vs the 70s intermediary sized HWs would’ve been a lot better than against the...
There were quite a few 70s HWs who were rubber stamped as being in the realm of 6’3” and 220 lbs, and there were others that were bigger again,...
Lol. Of course it’s an arguable “fact”. Cooper 1 was pre prime Ali and a poorly focused, goofing off Ali (fighting to prediction) at that. What...

Fair, you can take Usyk’s word if you want but the Briedis fight was clearly much closer. The other context that I highlighted was that Usyk was...
The Briedis fight was much closer than the first Fury fight and, if not for the dodgy ref, Usyk would’ve KO’d/stopped Fury in round 9. The...
Absolutely agree Swag. Even when pitting them against each other (Louis vs Ali) people often point to their lesser performances to give one man...
I think Tua could present somewhat greater problems for Mike than the 3 opponents Mike did beat in his broadly acknowledged peak year - 1988....
Ali liked to put on a show and sometimes the dancing and leaning wasn’t always so practical. That’s why I like Ali’s performance in the first...
Even if it was confirmed that Usyk had announced his retirement right now, the very nature of the timing would suggest that it wouldn’t...
