Jim Corbett v Charles Martin& Andy Ruiz?

I actually read the fight reports. Please try it sometime, or you can read what I have to say, and learn.

Choysnki vs Corbett was brutal. Flush shots were landed, read the reports! Corbett's s manager, William Brady said the epic 27th round fight between Choynski and Corbett was even better than Sharkey vs Jeffries 2!

Fitz was an all time puncher, it took him 14 rounds, behind on point to stop Corbett.

Peter Jackson could hit hard, George Siler and many others, including Jeffries say so. Once again read the reports. The various ND's in 4 rounds dull Jackson's KO Percentage. What about Sam Langford's KO percentage? Are you telling me he can't hit?

McCoy was rated as a top 100 puncher by ring magazine, he landed hard. Read the fight reports. They went at each other. It was not a fake. McCoy's word can not be trusted. He was tricky in more ways then one.

So what if Kilrain was a 6 rounder, he was a puncher, wasn't he?

All these fight, which happened with light ounce glove show Corbett had a solid chin.

Okay, now you have the Ko'd amount times correct, I'm going to point out that two of them would not have happened in a 12 round format and the one that did happened when he was well past his prime. Corbett has way more than 20 fights. Box Rec just doesn't know about them or list some of the shorter ones as news wins. them

 

Corbett's reputation has taken a hit in recent years, and I have been one of his critics.

I think that Bob Fitzsimmons has a far superior resume at heavyweight for example.

All that misses the point.

The one thing that Corbett should not be criticized for, is his ability to outbox his opponents.

If he had top end durability, or fought in an era of twelve round fights, he would likely have beaten everybody in that era.
