As miserable a human being as he might have been out of the ring - I can recall 2 - 3 times he was a gentleman in the ring who didn't take advantage of situations... Carlos Monzon
You might not care but I’m gonna ask anyway. Was it true that Dempsey didn’t used to wash up to a week before fights because he wanted to smell as mean as he looked?
Can’t get any cleaner than these guys: Harry Greb Sandy Saddler Andrew Golota Antonio Margarito Luis Resto
Joe Frazier, For his style of fighting he was a clean fighter. He didn't hit low that much even when being held excessively. I recall his bout with Joe Bugner when he had Bugner out in the corner. Frazier held up and allowed him to continue. In Manila even late Ali slipped, Joe backed up and allowed him to reset.
Mebbe ... George Foreman told of a fighter (he never said who) that stunk so bad, it was the main reason Foreman went for a fast KO; he didn't want to risk clinching with someone that funky.
Everyone just assumed GOAT meant Greatest Of All Time ... nobody suspected it was a nickname due to his barnyard funk. Who knew?
Im amazed nobody beat me to Floyd Patterson. Ive literally seen him knock a guy down (not out) and help him back up, more than once. Who does that?
