    A lot slate Rocky for his size... "He wouldn't be able to compete today" which is BS when the likes of Jones and Toney have moved up to have decent success. Not to mention with a bit of modern nutrition and supplements Marciano wouldn't have much of a probably putting on 10-15 lbs of effective bulk.

    Chisora without all of that fat isn't much bigger than Marciano...

    Kownacki beat Szpilka because Szpilka dropped his hands like an idiot and let him hit him. Not saying he wouldnt have won anyway ( ithought it was 2-1 szpilka at time), but thats why it happened like it did. Super super dumb by Szpilka.

    Could never find it.... So I'm guessing not. Which is a shame.

    Another solid win for Miller. Definitely a dark horse at HW.

    You can throw Whyte and Breazeale in there as well. And Miller may well be the best of the bunch.

    Always have said this... HW is about good fights being made, lack of elite talent isn't why it's been so lackluster for the last 10-15 years - it's the lack of good fights being made! These mediocre but tough heavies throwing down with one another would generate a ton of interest for the division if it happened regularly.

    Miller was no surprise. I said it before that he was going to be a player in the sport of Boxing. Also, The Cro cop loss did nothing to derail what I thought he would achieve so far and it turned out I was right. He' the best of the 3 you mentioned and imho the best American boxer in the division Today.

    I had to watch Szpilka-Kownacki again and Kownacki actually did much better than I remembered. He had less problems with Szpilka than Wilder did. Now if Szpilka was at the same ability level as when he fought Wilder is undetermined. But Kownacki showed good body punching as well as the powerful right hand. I think if Baby Face lands that right on anybody's chin they are going to be in serious trouble.
