    the recent version of Bernard Hopkins, which makes it even more impressive at his age that he's going 12 rounds every time.

    Here is the issue with that back in his era you damn near had to kill your opponent to get a KO. As long as you could get up the referee would allow the fight to continue. These days flurries against the ropes or a bloody nose and the referee will stop it. Not saying LaMotta was a power puncher because he wasn't but if he fought in todays era his stoppages would be much much higher. :good

    Good point. Back in the day TKO's weren't handed out like they are today.

    Ridiculous. Seriously ridiculous answer. As are several of these answers. I don't know what sport some of you guys think you watch.
