    Both Ali and Louis won fights they should have officially lost on the cards. Meanwhile Holmes was shafted. Spinks 2 should be among his best wins. I agree Holmes resume is a little under rated. Could you imagine if Holmes fought Foreman instead of Young and beat him?

    In terms of best wins, Ali's has best and the deepest. He might also have the most gift decisions. ( Norton and Young )

    Holmes had questionable decisions against Witherspoon and Williams

    I have to rewatch the Williams bout I always thought Holmes beat Witherspoon clean and for that matter I felt he beat Norton clean too

    I agree. I didn't even have it that close. About 117-112 for Holmes (with 1 round being even)

    On "skilled but fragile" I'd have Ali's opponent be Henry Cooper.
    On "A hard night" I'd put Shavers
