    That Ali didn't walk on water or heal the blind and lame.

    I started questioning these rumors when I read that he actually put his britches on one leg at a time. This was from someone who knew him.

    The Benvenuti-Griffith trilogy in the late 60's were fascinating to me...very entertaining bouts between two guys who were so evenly matched.

    Hagler is the H2H King at Middleweight and would beat Robinson, Monzon and Jones.

    Ezzard Charles at Light Heavyweight was the most perfect boxer ever and Charles has the least padded record of any Champion ever.

    There really was something in that drink during the Arguello/Pryor fight. If Panama Lewis never gave Pryor that drink then Arguello would of found some way to win the first fight yet lose the rematch..
    Pac after the Hatton and Cotto fight knocks out Mayweather, yet loses any other time.

    The Klitscko's wouldn't be more than contenders during the 70's era of boxing.

    The Clottey/Pac fight was fixed..

    Pavlik would beat Froch even to this day.

    carlos monzon would handle hagler much easier than many people think and he would use the jab, he had the size and natural strength to handle him easily in the clinch , he had the chin to take his shots and escopeta would keep hagler out of him with the 1-2. plus he had great stamina and he would keep the high level in the late rounds
