During the early 2000's, Wlad was one of the best offensive fighters ever. He became a lot more cautious and safety-first after the Brewster loss...
We already saw that in '96, Holyfield had the perfect gameplan to beat Tyson and executed it with marvelous precision. Some people however,...
On the flipside, you have to be honest here and admit that Bowe was far, far better than any opponent Holmes ever faced as champion. If the...
Why do you think we have weight classes, and not height or reach classes? You ignore that little bit that it the most important in boxing. And...

Tell that to Weaver, whom he knocked out with a single right hand. Weaver always had a weak jaw, but still. I think the difference here is...
Lewis is just much more proven. Foreman's first career was a very short one, with only four significant wins (Chuvalo, Frazier, Norton and Lyle),...
I noticed you conveniently made no mention of Carl Williams in your post. Carl Williams is another "lesser" fighter that Holmes should've lost to....
