Like others, one of my favorites - we are the same age. Watched almost all of his fights as well. If he only he was old enough to have battled...
Trevor Berbick in any of these discussions makes my skin crawl. He was not a big time HW in my opinion. Bugner by decision. Thomas by decision...
Toney as a HW was a stationary boxer who had good head movement. He’d give a majority of the ATG’s a hard time, but wouldn’t win the majority IMO.
The Spinks mentions in this thread tells me all I need to know about his other wins.
My earliest memory is Ali-Spinks 2. So, then throughout the 80’s is my favorite time period. When Tyson went to jail, the life went out of the...
I’d pay whatever. Who cares about the announcing crew? I’d put it on mute and just watch.
No. Nothing. Frazier was just plain better at that stage of each others careers.

I’m one who doesn’t give Quarry much love. Foreman with a KO. I just can’t allow myself to buy this.

Good post above. Not much to piggy back on. In my opinion, Larry wins a close decision h2h. Larry was more active, moved better, and was able to...
Couldn’t agree more on context. Lived it, watched it. Crazy atmosphere and buildup. I wanted a Hearns KO so bad I could taste it. After round one,...
What a great trio. Great question. Hearns and JJ are two of my absolute favorites, so it’s hard for me to make picks based on head, not heart. If...
Kelly Pavlik because I’m a huge Ohio State Buckeye fan and he wore buckeye shorts when he whipped Jermaine Taylor.
I don’t think Holmes was prone to the left hook, Frazier’s one and only money punch. Or at least Holmes would be wary of it and game plan around...
