    You’re gonna make an enemy out of me if you say Holyfield even psychically resembles the GOAT. Ezz Charlie is the man. Tyson was a freaky boxer though undeniably, it was like watching Mr Olympia fight like a bantam weight in the 80s.

    Cookie cutter thing of me to say so I’ll throw in a fun fact for your time reading this post. Oscar De La Hoya said Mayweather and Manny Pac hit the same. Mayweather was more accurate and Manny was just a matter of accumulation.

    Another one you say? Yuh Myung Wuh rode the bus to support his farthers occupation even as a successful boxer.

    Chris Eubank Snr always ate a handful of gummy bears before bed…. Jeff “Candy Slim” Merritt was the first guy managed by Don King.

    I thought Norris had a legitimate injury vs Tyson if someone has evidence otherwise I stand corrected.

    Also just added Joseph Parker, although his career wasn't done when he was asked.
