- Riddick Bowe (95) MIke wins UD 12. Bowe nearly gets stopped early and loses the first couple of rounds badly. After that he rallies and nearly...
Perhaps Norton/Holmes
It was a tactical move he should have learned was failing early on. I too was surprised and baffled how long he fought in that gear. That said,...
A great fighter whom bizarrely fell apart around big punchers. He beat Ali before the latter won the title twice more, including against Foreman....
I think so, Bowe was just a plain better fighter imo.
Frazier fought like his life depended on it. I'm not sure Mike ever quite got there, though he was a really brave man against Lewis, Ruddock, and...
It's an opinion I respect though I don't agree. I so love Holy, he is a top 5 ATG and deserved legend. He was in his own way quite heroic during...
Holmes was way too sharp 78. He'd probably get floored, but most of this fight would be about George's seeming inability to fight much beyond...
I have a lot of sentiment regarding this excellent post. I'm not sure Larry did everything better than Pinky at this time, however I think the...
I see this. Spinks just wasn’t enough of a heavyweight to beat a big puncher who wasn’t coming off years of relative inactivity and drink.
The Holyfield who stopped Dokes and Douglas would stop Usyk in 11. That Holy was probably already an ATG, though he still had over half a dozen...
You're preaching to the choir, my friend. Love George.
He holds probably the biggest win over any heavyweight ever. Ali had two tune ups, was under 30, knocked the crap out of him for a good portion of...
Could Usyk beat a slightly past it Bowe? I can't quite make up my mind on that one.
Ewps. I think I had a brain blackout when I saw Holmes below Foreman, sorry Swag. I can't pick Tunney, Dempsey, or Johnson over Holmes, Holy, or...
