I think Tyson wins a pretty comfortable UD. Can’t see Mercer getting stopped and he should win a few rounds. Just don’t see him beating Mike at all.
I think he beats them all. I will add that the prime version of Baer, not the one Louis fought, would have been a much tougher challenge. He could...
I think Dubois wins inside the distance. Golota really made his reputation with the Bowe fights which I tend to think reflected Bowe’s decline...
Huck is a decent fighter and a rough and tumble customer. Weaver is better but I don’t think he’s that much better that he will have an easy time...
ATG lists change over time. I tend to believe that a great fighter would be great in any era if they were Time Machined into it and did their...
I would have picked Lennox Lewis, assuming that Ali is #1. However this is a really solid list when I look at it. Food for thought.
Do you think that this fight may have led to the Holmes camp slightly underestimating Witherspoon? Not that Larry was out of shape mind you but...
I always lean toward Sonny. The version Ali beat to win the championship was still great, Ali was greater. That’s not a knock on Liston. Anyone...
The Norton Cooney beat was shot to pieces. That being said he had a tendency to become almost paralytic when hit by a really big puncher. Anything...
Pretty much exactly what happened.
Berbick could be even more erratic than Snipes, which isn’t easy to do. That being said, when motivated he was a tough night for most guys. I...
Witherspoon won a decision over Snipes prior to fighting Holmes. It was very close. Do you mean a rematch later? Both of these guys were talented,...
Lower half of the top 10 for me. I think he was great.
Good point. Although both big punchers Maidana and Matthysse were quite different stylistically. I had assumed he would get caught but it’s not a...
This was the first boxing match I ever watched. While not great it will always have a special place for me. I think I was only in the 3rd grade at...
