    Yes you can if if the ATG takes a dive

    He was a ****ing hog farmer who didn't take up the sport until he was past his physical prime

    Do me a favour...

    Frazier was diminutive, over-light, fat and out of shape, featherfisted, chinny, half blind, and had no skills to back it up. It's laughable to credit this as some sort of GREAT win for George.

    No disagreement from me here.

    Fair play, I'll give you the benefit of the doubt.

    What the **** are you talking about?

    The bout went 25 ****ing rounds, who decides they want to go 25 rounds before they take a dive?
    Does that seem sane to you?

    Watch the punch in slow mo in the last minute of the clip, and tell me again how this was fixed.

    Johnson did it for a pardon, he went 25 rounds to save face, he obviously dived, Willard was dog ****

    The clip is right there.

    Watch it, then make your judgements.

    That's a no limits logical fallacy. We can't just assume humans will develop or grow ad-infinitum because it had happened in the past. How do we know there isn't a peak from which people start declining instead? You can't logically extrapolate what had happened in the past, and use that as evidence that this same trend will forever occur.

    yeah you are right with that humans will definitely hit a plateau at some point but i cant really see any of that in the last decades it is a consistent development and i think that the jump from 90s to 2000s wasnt that big but the jump from 2000s to the 2010s is massive. Most fights at top level almost always end in a ko or one guy kissing the canvas at some point which back in the day and in the 2000 wasnt that common.
    You might say it is the lack of defence, i think its the facts that those hw get bigger and bigger, the peds get stronger but the human brain just has a limit too what it can take.

    And still many on here give Joshua virtually 0 credit for beating WK in what, his 16th fight?

    WK hadn't trained that seriously or diligently in a loooooong time.

    That's a bit out of order.
