I slightly favor Foreman here. Liston was the better boxer but I think they would brawl it out and when I think about Foreman's brute power...
Sad to hear this. One of the last great heavyweight legends is gone. He had an inspiring life. Rest in peace, Big George.
Looking at their records, it's hard to believe that Tommy Loughran vs. Maxie Rosenbloom won't go the distance.
Louis vs Schmeling 1 As far as I remember, Louis mentioned in his autobiography that Schmeling did not suit his style and was awkward to fight....

It's a good documentary that I watched last night. There is some interesting information about his family background, development of his left...

Another, quite a famous example, which I have almost forgotten came to my mind. The heavyweight title fight between Max Schmeling and James J....
