    what does your record have to do with me sticking proof right in front of your face and you still don't believe me. Watch the video I posted...

    Btw... I respect the fact that you are a pro boxer at least you had or have the balls to step into the ring unlike some of us but this has nothing to do with the fact that you are being hardheaded about this. I am telling you Dundee is senile and showing you proof that ali only got a few extra seconds at best and you still choose to ignore me. I am not stating my opinion, I AM STATING A FACT AND BACKING IT WITH PROOF.

    The BBC cleared this up some years ago, by rebroadcasting the live radio feed. The gap between the round was 70 seconds. Ali/Clay never actually had his glove changed, just patched up. Harry Carpenter talks about this and myths that went with it, in the ESPN (SKY Channel 442) broadcast of the fight, that is seemingly on every other day.

    Its my personal list..This little tornado died at 23 years of age. And already considered the greatest Asian fighter ever til now. Fought every week..unheard of even at the time

    Beat Johnny Buff, Abe Goldstein, Terry Martin, Jimmy Wilde, Benny Scwartz, Georgie Marks, Clever Sencio, Bud Taylor. Got robbed against Frankie Gennaro

    Consistently ranked as the #2 Greatest Flyweight ever behind Wilde.

    Think about this...This is a Filipino fighter in the 20's getting standing ovations at Ebbets Field and the Polo grounds..that great. He was called the little Dempsey for his relentless style

    Many people felt that he could have been greater if not for the fact that his promoter Frank Churchill had problems getting him notice in the states as one can imagine at the time.

    :lol: You're right Top 25...I got carried away.. Note though that when Villa fought he was ususally the smaller man.

    I just think of that Era in the 20's to pack the Polo grounds. (Reason Being that Villa had become such a draw, coz Wilde was over his prime at the time).

    I mean this little brown fighter getting recognized at the time when people had separate washrooms...He must have captured the country's imagination.

    But Chavo is a different story...He had some flaws that (Ive seen all his fights) that could have been taken advantage of by certain fighters. I know Nelson could have beaten him in a rematch.

    You know what with Sanchez, I'll be totally honest..Too many struggles in fights..He didnt exactly blew everyone away as one would have you believe... Now Arguello...thats a diff story..
