Why do Dempsey apologists keep blabbering on about 'the Hollywood years', as if Wills wasn't pushing for the fight from 1919 onwards even putting...
Not really, possibly the worst second best win of any lineal champion? You'll struggle to find worse
Power is incredibly overrated by most fans, but no it didn't lose that much, maybe a bit near the end but he sparked Ettiene in under a minute who...

Wlad-Bowe is a 50-50, Bowe didn't do brilliantly against boxers not the best defence of movement, but Wlad doesn't do well against punchers with...
