Liston late TKO, after taking a serious early pounding. George could win an early KO though. A little factoid: The only time Wepner was ever off...
I don't care if this sparring session happened or not. Sparring is all but meaningless. It's for training, that's it. Despite having raw talent,...
Thanks Senor Pepe for all the informative posts. Always bugged me the way most American fans only knew Cuevas from two fights. The losses to...
SRR? Pep? Greb? Griffith? Louis? SRL? Sanchez? Benitez? Way too many to choose from. Where do you start?
Louis early by KO. Or a close decision if Frazier survives early, and doesn't get badly hurt. If he were hurt early in any round Louis would have...
This. Asked after the fight if he was hurt by Hearns in the first, Marvin smiled and said "nah, it just made me madder." But I do think it...
Gerry Cooney was 55-3 as an amateur, while Larry Holmes was 19-3. And then there was Duane Bobick's stellar amateur career...
Don't have the link, but Andy Ganigan lifting Sean O'Grady completely off his feet with a body blow sticks in my memory. Awesome KO. Andy just...
Good thread. Hardest chin I can think of maybe in boxing history. I mean, he was never even knocked down (the Roldan KD was a joke). The only time...
Very fit and strong LW with incredible stamina. One can only imagine what Scott would have been like outside the prison walls. Size is the...
I'm one who thought Ali beat Young, if barely. Jimmy didn't land enough punches, and ducking out of the ring a few times made him look bad. But...
Tony Tubbs. (Sorry, had to say it). I'll say Hagler. He was known to have an insane training regimen. He would do things like run 6-7 miles a...
I agree with the masses here. I like Frazier in 74 by UD or late TKO, and Norton in 76 by SD. A more intriguing fight would have been...
Agree with Stevie and Senor Pepe. Norton won the 1st fight, though outside the broken jaw it wasn't an ass kicking. Actually somewhat close...
A retired Chuvalo said that DeJohn hit has hard as any fighter he had taken on. On par with Foreman.
