Debatable. Depends on what you consider "support". For instance, I believe Holmes was knocked down by fewer opponents than either of those 2.
I was pretty critical of Floyd at that time, too. I never liked the idea of the Hatton fight, as I thought there were several more interesting...
Lots of fights don't happen for lots of different reasons, C.J. But there really wasn't much of a window for that fight to happen. And Margarito...
There was no real window for it, barring some time in 2007 prior to Margo losing to Williams.
I dislike both almost equally, where I'd ultimately agree with you. Too many belts is AWFUL. But almost as awful is the additional weight classes....
Harsh, considering it was against peak Tyson and that the final blow was preceded by Larry getting his punching arm tangled in the rope. I...
Too many weight classes, too many alphabet soup bodies.
Of the fights he had from the start of the Super 6, I actually think Bika gave him his toughest test. Calzaghe advocates are big to jump on this...
Ward is immensely talented, and I think he genuinely believes he never got the respect he deserved, and I tend to believe there is truth in that....
He was also far less skilled than either of them, less athletic, painfully slow, and much easier to hit with no defense to speak of whatsoever. I...

I'd say they were all in the same ballpark. All 3 guys were good at varying the angles, speed, and delivery of their shots, and each has several...
I actually think Gennady is the one with far more room for improvement. Whether that translates to him actually improving or not remains to be...
