Michael Spinks, if you accept him as a HW Champion. He was a slow starter, not a terrific infighter, and there's no question who has superior...
Graziano wasn't in the same galaxy as Jake when it came to quality of opposition on the way up. Dellcurti 3X, Basora 3X, Jimmy Reeves 3X, Jimmy...
Mac Foster's footwork was compared to Joe's when he was undefeated and climbing the ladder.
