    Thanks, kenmore. I read the entire column, and I am sticking with TKO9 for the purposes of my prediction league.

    :good

    I agree with you entirely.....

    But Ali/ListonI goes in the books as a TKO7, because Liston wants to go to heaven (and did not come out for the seventh); Ali's (Clay's) original prediction was indeed Liston in eight, but as Ali said, Liston quit to stop Ali looking so great!

    Forgive me for saying, but what exactly does "RTD" stand for?

    On BoxRec Pavlik/Zuniga is listed as TKO9, but Pavlik/Rubio is listed as RTD9. Both fights ended when the challenger didn't want no more at the end of 9 rounds. Odd:think
