Ellis was always considered to be a blown up MW....though he did stop Johnny Persol & Leotis Martin back to back. When he got in with true big heavyweights, it was like he using a BB-gun versus a Sherman tank.
Kinda boring to do it with run of the mill champs. Let's do it with pure top 30 ATGs. In no particular order: Ali Holyfield Tunney Holmes Corbett
Like I said you REALLY think he ko'd a chiseled chin Bigfoot Martin in ITALY?? I will ask him if I talk to him again. And I guarantee his answer will be that he did what most PROFESSIONALOPPONENTS do when they're in their Challengers country and when that Challenger is being pushed to be in the top 10 unwarranted. It's done all the time. Fighters who build up an incredible record with an incredible amount of kos fighting in their Hometown or home country but when they get their first big Challenge they are exposed..I.E. Vs Ray Mercer and his next and only other real test, Oliver McCall. Not only lost but quit in both fights and if I'm not mistaken both in the ninth round. Also please check his record in the states. Show me a ko from someone you even heard of. Not only that, show me a ko from a quality fighter in his country besides a very tough out Everett Martin, (Olease). U can't just read stats
