I think Patterson is not unlike Dawson actually: high handspeed, fluid combinations, good hook, but questionable jaw. Most of todays...
Okay, fair enough, i did not remember that. I just think that if one looks objective at the fight film of Liston-Clay, there is absolutely no...
Please let him stay retired. His fights are extremely boring because: -He can take 10 steps and throw 10 punches a round, or he gasses -He can...
I think it would be best to employ the same strategy as Chagaev had against Valuev; use the foot- and handspeed advantage to land clean punches...

This does make sense. Valuev has had a few dodgy decisions and the recent Holyfield one really made his respect drop below sea level, especially...
The Thrilla is mentioned often, but Ali vs Frazier I was brutal as well. Frazier went to the hospital for two weeks and took a shitload of...
I just read it as well, only 21 years old. :-(
Audley Harrison took his career more serious than Peter as well, doesn't mean he's a better fighter.
I agree, Lyle didn't have Brewster's power. His name would be Samuel Peter.
That part where Bowe got his title shot ONLY on the premise that he'd defend against the winner of Ruddock/Lewis, and then dropping the belt in...
The 70's had a better top4 (Ali, Holmes, Frazier, Foreman), though Lewis, Holyfield, Tyson and Bowe are not far behind. Note though, that Ali was...
