    Muhammad Ali knows boxing -- however he did pick Mike Spinks to beat Tyson lol. Good point about Tyson Sdt. Good article.

    hmmn..Holyfield did say that "Tyson's reputation alone defeated his opponents" .That's why he started taking easy on the training aswell and didn't have to fight hard.

    Jermain Taylor was protected with soft fights against junior middleweights like Spinks, he totally ducked Miranda. Well it really wasn't Taylor doing the ducking it was his advisor Haymon.

    Roy Jones starting losing and is losing now because HE STUCK AROUND TOO LONG, the man didn't start losing into he was in his mid 30's, very ignorant & lazy article IMO.
