The fight was effectively ended with a single uppercut, which was so direct and well placed it didn't much matter how hard it was. As for Smith,...
I could see Dempsey messing him up just as badly.
I don't agree. He was outmatched by Tyson because of styles. He had no problem with James Smith, who was much larger than Tyson and, I suspect, a...
Holy **** was he really that young? Poor *******, you can tell how crestfallen he is in the post fight interview, and see how the interviewer...

Or maybe we should just be more cautious and precise when we call someone racist. Ali, when judged on the totality of his life and actions, damn...

Satterfield was pretty shredded too, but I think he was around 185-190 for that fight.
Holy ****, I searched for videos for that very purpose a few months ago but didn't find anything. Jack Dempsey, by the way, sounds so much like...
Woodrow Wilson was a vile human being (as perforce is almost anyone who garners the approval and support of concentrated wealth and power) but I...
Your comments are consistently astute. You must be one of those Will Hunting type janitors.
I'm really late on this one but I got Holyfield. I think Jack wins the first few rounds and at some point gets Holy in trouble like Bert Cooper...
On a completely irrelevant note, am I the only one who thought for years that "Cleveland Williams" was a nickname like Tex Rickard or Indiana...
