Ike Williams of course.
Greb and Armstrong accomplished more. More wins over rated fighters, 45-0 in one year (Greb) going 59-1-1 over three (Armstrong), defending the...
Armstrong is always difficult to rate. It's actually very easy to pick a handful of fighters to beat him; Duran, Williams, Saddler, Pep, Napoles,...

The thing with switch-hitting or stance-shifting, whatever you want to call it, is the feet. Nothing to do with the hands really. It's how you're...
Actually that wasn't quite all I had to say. There's this: I don't think Moore would necessarily beat every light heavyweight if they had a single...
