    The Ken Norton camp should have stuck with the Hyptnotist from the first fight against Muhammad Ali in March 1973.

    We could argue about it till kingdom come & it wont make any difference. A good fighter & I fully believe an innocent fighter, had his career destroyed & his good name tarnished. All I hope is that all concerned in it get to learn about Karma. Take care

    Breland in the Wilder vs Fury rematch. He should have let Wilder go out on his shield and get kept his job.

    Lou Duva cost Meldrick Taylor the win vs Chavez its really that simple.
    First he tells Mel in the last round to basically go all out when he did not have to.
    Then when Mel gets dropped and gets up Duva jumps on the ring apron which causes Mel to look over in that direction when Steele is asking if he's alright.
    Then the worst of it is freaking Duva matches Mel up with NORRIS a freaking JR MIDDLE when Mel was struggling at welterweight. That fight was basically Duva saying Mel's done so lets cash him out in a big fight even though he has absolutely no chance in beating Norris.

    Its hard to argue your point because once caught Antonio never knocked anyone else out.
    So you have to ask yourself where did the power disappear to?
