So he has to rematch every fighter who gave him a tough fight? He wanted his title back and Mercer was someone he didn’t even have to fight on...
No. But he came back after being staggered badly by Briggs. And don’t forget he got up after the shot from McCall although badly shaken. The only...
Alfred Asaro from Nigel Benn vs Gerald McClellan has to be a contender.
With so many belts and organisations around who knows. If there was one unified champion no chance. A good British/European/Commonwealth type...
Sonny probably would have just drifted through some payday but overall meaningless fights. Ali probably would have given him a shot as he’d be...
Who gave you the G-Man tag you foul mouthed *****. You should apologise to Gerald McClellan right now.
What if he does a “I’m certain now”. then makes a “I’ve got more to offer boxing” comeback. Nothings certain in sports especially boxing. Tyson...
Imagine Liston picking on Lewis. Then Lewis loses his temper. Lewis picks 210 Liston and throws him all over the place. Liston is smart and backs...
Just how did Whyte get his number one ranking in the first place. He should be grateful for a shot at the title.
He’d have beaten all of them except maybe Ali & Holmes on points.
I would of thought pretty similar. Obviously Mike had more power but what footage I’ve seen of the early years of Mike’s training seems to...
Dempsey’s only hope is to take George to the ground and choke him out. But given George’s brute strength and power and durability any other...
Highly unlikely.
Would it be Bob Fitzimmons? He definitely was the first 3 weight champion. Middleweight then Heavyweight. And later on a new Light-Heavyweight.
Didn’t James J Braddock lose a few while on what they called the “Bread Line”? Literally taking fight while starving. And a broken hand.
Johnny Nelson of the Carlos DeLeon fight. He’d hug you to death but at least no head injuries.
Ok so if he landed one on Fury, if he could reach him, he’d catch his attention or would Fury say “Come on when you’re ready”. He’d flatten Spinks...
I fancy Dempsey here as he has so much more to offer the Max’s right hand. But if Max lands that right hand it gets very interesting.
Well said Andrew.
Like my reply to Eddie Izzard maybe he got as good as he could be. But I can’t help thinking as posted relocating to the states really turned...
Good evaluation. Maybe he was as good as he ever was going to be.
Terry Lawless ruined Bruno. All those 1st round knockouts then massive gaps between fights badly stunted his growth as a world class fighter. Look...
Interesting scenario. I can picture Dempsey smashing the crap out of Cooney simply because of Cooney’s physical so similarities to Willard. But...
How about Tommy Farr?
But Bruno had a good hard punishing jab. Too slow maybe but if he got Lewis with jab he can get Byrd.
