    Cool! Obviously can't judge the content but I'd definitely pick this up in the bookshop and have a look. New cover's definitely an improvement, well done.

    Depends on your intended audience really.

    The first one I could see appealing to younger readers, while the second has a more refined sensibility that goes over better with, say, the average Classic forum poster.

    It's time to stop the constant "Ali" and "Tyson" talk.
    It's stupid.
    Only sport where we have to consistently talk about guys who havent fought a professional fight in 2-5 decades and one of them is dead.
    Then the same morons turn around and go "Why isn't the sport as popular in America anymore?"

    Can you imagine, if everytime someone mentioned football, that Joe Montana or Terry Bradshaw got brought up instead of Patrick Mahomes and whoever else.
    Fkin enough of that nonsense.

    Like Stephen A Smiths always bringing up some William Joppy fight he watched 23 years ago, as if that gets him Boxing Cred to say whatever now.

    Take that sht to classic side of the forum.

    Have you ever heard the phrase if you have nothing positive to say you should shut the hell up, it’s a boxing book looking at classic fighters obviously it will focus more on the past

    The bigger issue is why one thread on a forum of so many threads has affected you so much that you had to write such a pointless negative comment has it really affected your life so drastically that you had to take time out of your busy schedule to write such nonsense

    Are you on Clenbuterol by any chance?

    ...are you serious right now? Do you think "Ovechkin vs. Gretzky", "Brady vs. Montana", "LeBron vs. MJ", and "Jon Jones vs. Fedor Emelianenko" aren't multi-thread-weekly staples of NHL/NFL/NBA/MMA forums?

    Ali vs. Tyson is a timeless hypothetical match-up because of their contrasting styles and personalities, and will continue to be discussed long after we're dust.
