From knowing the Hide fight, i wouldn´t consider him a defensive master. On the other hand, Hide was a very fast handed sharp puncher. I just...
He wouldn´t. I don´t see him going 3-0 vs Parker, Wilder and Joshua. He would fight in the Cruisers anyway.
Riddick Bowe, 43-1, has never been stopped in his career, losing only to prime Holyfield. He was hurt several times, mostly when beeing "past his...
This might have the potential for an enclosed discussion.

Who? Past-it Louis? Since you mentioned 14 fighters of your "50s heavyweight era" before, and i can´t find anybody from here in there, i guess...
A young, motivated Witherspoon will make it. Tyson, im my opinion, was a product of intense professionell training with short fighting periods,...
