    A perfect example of a fighter to have a superior fighters number is :
    Willie Joyce a top lightweight beating the greatest lightweight of his or most any other time Ike Williams THREE out of Four times. Willie just had Ike's number..
    And Ike Williams had the lightweight windmill , Beau Jack's number ,beating Beau Jack three times. Style,style, style...

    You're talking to one of the most prolific trolls in the business. I'd let it be.

    Rachman/Maskaev, Chavez/Mayweather, Pavlik/Taylor, Baker/Layne are a few that come to mind.

    Jorge Castro > John David Jackson
    Earnie Shavers > Jimmy Young
    Chuvalo > Ali (regardless of d corrupt scoring in d first fite , the doctors where Ali was hospitalized after d fight could attest who the real winner was)
    Charles > Wright
    Collins > Benn (they were/are d same age , Collins had just as much wear & tear on him prior 2 this , fukk those who disagree)


    already mentioned in d thread , which i agree 2 :
    Maskaev > Rahman (d most classic example)
    Barkley > Hearns
    Tarver > Jones
    Mark Wills > Greg Page
    Junior Jones > Marco Antonio Barera

    and 4 obvious reasons :
    Frazier > Ellis
    Liston > Patterson
    Foreman > Frazier

    due to weight making problems at the time of d fight :
    Harada over Jofre


    And these cases are underrated and the "vendetta" was due 2 rematching d opponent while he's just not himself , something like Jones did with Toney in first place , and Harada did with Jofre although maybe not purposely in his case :

    Brewster > Wlad (rematch quickly after detached retina surgery , Brewster not fully healed)

    Harding > Tarver (Harding not fully healed from an injury)

    Griffin > Jones (griffin not allowed d sufficient time to get warmed , rushed in2 d ring)

    McCall > Lewis (McCall still in rehab when signed 2 fite Lewis again)


    if 1 recognizes 1 fite series as sufficient then :
    Cooper > Holyfield , Moorer and maybe even Orlin Norris
    McClellan > Benn (d ref saved Benn more than just once , but once is enough 2 know McClellan was just as finishing Benn as 1 could ever hope 2)

    Aaron Pryor vs. Alexis Arguello. As good as Arguello was he just couldn't beat Pryor.

    No. You probably looked only upstairs and underrated Chuvalo's painful bodywork . As I already told u , I watched this 1 while scoring it round by round , like I rarely do , just 4 d sake of people questioning me .
