Holyfield wouldn't be more obvious if he got a band to march through the middle of New York, waving flags of him injecting steroids while he waves...
That's ridiculous. Fitzsimmons was a world class heavyweight, with wins at Heavyweight. Langford wasn't at that point.
[MEDIA]
I think his run of good wins really went from 1903, or maybe 1902, and really ended with the Jeffries win in 1910, after that he defended his...
I don't see any reason to assume its not true.
He just needs to fight at his natural weight and get the ring rust off and he'll be world class again
I know some of Butterbeans were heavier. Not sure what the record is https://boxrec.com/en/proboxer/865585 https://boxrec.com/en/proboxer/58549...
There's valid criticism, but he gets nowhere near enough credit for his pretitle run, him and Tommy Burns really cleared out the division between...
Frankly the claims of Jeffries Fitz's II being fixed (which I don't believe in the slightest) have vastly better evidence.
My mind is always open to being changed. But it'd need to be something a lot more convincing than "I watched it years ago when I was 15 and it was...
Just thought I'd give this a cheeky bump due to the Patterson thread. Jimmy Barry, from what I've seen, was more often called a Bantamweight, but...
I never said anything about Butterbean's fights being fixes. People say all sorts of stuff years later. Our memory is far from perfect, and can...
I looked at a few next day reports of Stribling and Carnera's fight in England, though not enough to come to a firm conclusion, and can't see...
I've never looked into them, but I have looked into enough fights to know that boxrec comments are not reliable at all, including regarding claims...
Ok what's your proof the Stribling fights were fiexed?
Patterson was a great fighter, with one of the most fun to watch styles, and by all accounts a great man. Your obsession with bashing him is just...
Mickey Walker did something similar [MEDIA]
The force transfer wouldn't be as good either.
Could George punch like George with no gloves or wraps? Plus they get 40s to recover after a knockdown, and if they are groggy, and opted to,...
Assuming Glazkov slips in the 3rd round and injures his knee Could Larry Holmes have won a world title at 52?
Taking guys out fast really wasn't easy under LPR rules. Every knock down ended the round, so they got a while to recover, and there was no...
Also don't forget So, he hit harder than Jack Dempsey, and in his prime was avoided by Larry Holmes, Mike Tyson, Evander Holyfield, Riddick...
I think Marciano would be pretty poorly suited to LPR. He had the stamina, but in a lot of ways his style would be all wrong. If you tried to...
