Well you're seeing more in Miller than what I do. He's fought nobody. Mason up until Lewis hadn't exactly fought stellar opposition but his opponents were of a higher standard than the "luminaries" Miller has fought.
I don’t agree. Mason beat a poorly prepared version of Biggs who fought on even terms until he seemed to quit. Apart from that, Mason’s opposition was awful. Miller beat Washington right after he did ok against Wilder, Wach and Duhapas who are tough and generally only lose to top fighters, and Dinu who was undefeated. I’m not praising Miller’s resume though. Off the eye test, I put him well above Mason and closer to someone like Tua or Mercer.
I liked Mason, jovial good guy, and he was a solid heavy with real pop, every bit as good as Dubois or Gorman for instance.
He was like Dubois and I used to like him as a pundit on sky sports alongside Barry McGuigan and McKenzie during the 90`s era, RIP.
Wilder scored a more impressive KO over Washington and so did Mason when he smashed Biggs, Miller doesn`t have enough speed in his shots to carry any force.
Well we're going have to beg to differ pal but I respect your opinion. When fighters step up sometimes they show how good they really are and Miller may well do that.
I watched the fight live on TV as a kid but just checked the ending again because of your comment and the shot wasn`t as hard as I remember at all, it was similar to Foreman`s right hand against Moorer though and would have put him away also, but I feel Biggs dropped because he was tired.
Mason wasn`t ready fall down but he had slowed a lot and was being out boxed, Biggs didn`t have the power to stop Mason and neither would Miller, Mason`s chin was better than Bruno`s though.
What makes you say that, antman? Apart from Lewis who did Mason fight that can be said to have been a big puncher?
How do you know that? Did he ever get hit by Jumbo Cummings? Anyway the question I asked was ,apart from Lewis what other big puncher did Mason faced that proves that he had a better chin than Bruno, not who he didn't face. So your answer is..?
