Good assessment.
Read In the Ring & Out. Good story but damn Johnson could tell a tall tale or two.
Hell, Jeffries would rather get into the ring with Fitzimmons, Corbett and Tom Sharkey at the same time.
Corbett a Pioneer in boxing who could probably with the right modern diet, training etc even make Middle Weight/Super Middleweight. George KO1....
The WBO will always be fourth. The WBA, WBC & IBF can argue for first place but name me one “Lineal” Heavyweight Champion or other weight champion...
I wonder if anyone has asked Larry Holmes about his thoughts on George’s death. I’ve said Larry is one of my all time favourites, but some of his...
I’d say Tubbs UD. Too much size, reach coupled with hand speed for Joe. Plus Joe would spend too much time trying to get past Tony’s jab.
Can’t believe George is gone. Like Marvin Hagler never could imagine this. Watching the film Champions Forever is really sad now. Only Holmes...
Dennis Andries vs Thomas Hearns. Dennis kept getting up and was stopped by ref when he wobbled on the way to the corner.
Tua ko1. Heavyweight power vs light heavyweight/cruiserweight chin. Boxing must have stopped evolving like other sports. Tua brutal, probably not...
I can’t stand Hopkins for whatever reason but I see him outboxing GGG for 12 rounds. Hopkins UD. Or at worst MD.
I wouldn’t say he was a lesser fighter. He was a very talented multi skilled boxer who for whatever reason never reached his full potential. If...
Also if hope the BBBC, WBA, WBC, IBF, WBO and any I’ve missed out say “Thank you Mr Fury resignation accepted. Please close the door on the way...
I’d personally love to see Weaver. Win. No real reason just Weaver one of my faves. But I get this horrible gut feeling that Morrison and his camp...
Beat me to it. Good riddance. Not likely. Be saying that again. And again. And. You know what I mean.
