Golota beats him to a pulp and stops him inside of 6. Willard has the skillset of a journeyman and would be a punching bag against a technically,...
It depends a lot on how the opponent fights. If it's one of those turtle-cover up types, i like to throw hard right hands / left hooks to the...
Interesting that Ali viewed Marciano as better than Frazier and the best of the bunch before him. And given styles, he may well be the hardest...
It's interesting that Merchant says "...... and we may not even have seen the best of him [Tyson] yet". Which incidentally is true, although the...

For a change we're in agreement. :good Unless i made a spelling mistake there
Very sad news. He was the only true "old school" heavyweight champion alive; even if Ali (the current oldest former champ) is only 10 years older,...
I think Leonard scored with some jabs and hooks when he backed up against a forward raging Duran, during their second fight. As for Whitaker,...
