MMA HWs very seldom grapple and mostly kickbox. This is something Fury overlooked when he agreed to fight Francis Ngannou.
This should not be for an interim title. We already have 4 HW champions and if we had 1 this match still shouldn't be for a title. 18-0 v 12-0....
Ketchel almost beat Sam Langford and had a 94% KO rate.
In 2017? He was the 3rd guy to beat Chisora in 5 fights after Pulev and Whyte. They were both in the top 10 and theres like 7 top 10s so guess its...
It wasn't really possible to "go for it" if almost no one gets title shots for 7 years unless they already got one. Under the current system...

He would fight old Witherspoon first too.
Kabayel wasn't being ducked as an individual at least not until recently. The champs in this period were not fighting new contenders much...
Its the fault of the 4 ducks for not giving him a shot. He was fighting who was available at the regional level as the EBU champ. Parker got his...
The 70s is considered the best era. And either way the early 80s was the weakest part of the 80s as very few top HWs were born in the early and...
He might be top 5 or 6 at HW if and only if you exclude the British and even thats hard to give him on the basis of his short career. Overall no...
People are talking about the title run but look at Holmes pre and post title SOS and compare it to Louis's. Holmes had narrow time to fight...
Jeffries could beat 1905 Jeanette who had perhaps the worst start to a career of anyone in the IBHOF. Prime one? Lol no chance. He held Langford...
If you look at their respective comebacks one is clearly more "fraudulent" than the other and it sure ain't Georges.
I agree with you.
