(Don't bother looking for the names online, I think you'll find information on these obscure European fighters quite impossible to find)

 

Good job putting the fake names of Ali and Liston on there to try and fool people aswell. I spotted that trick straight away.

Is one of them Laszlo Papp?

 

****... foiled already!

No, but the surname of one fighter does start with 'P'.

That's all the clues I'm giving :good

 

Got it!!!

Wladimir Klitschko vs Sam Peter II

:happy:happy

 

Looks more like the picture of Malignaggi KO'ing Cotto.

 

Oh yeah. I remember that!

Spud, do you remember that one? Classic fight.

 

:barf

 

Actually it's Roman Polanski KO'ing Jake "the snake" Lamotta.

Polanski, a 38 year old ex-lightweight champion, decided to come out of retirement to fight the then reigning champ Lamotta.

Known for his fantastic power but limited speed, the younger and more fleet footed Lamotta soon began piling up a sizable points lead due to his jab and defensive wizardry.

Behind in the 22nd round by 20 rounds to 2, Polanski went for broke and dropped a vicious right hand hook on "the snakes" chin, dropping him for three 10 counts.

Jake was never the same after this defeat, and was KO'd three times in a row in his following fights. He was later assassinated by the chinese mafia for the illegal selling of opium in 1922.

 

Jesus how could you guys not know that?

 

so why do they have to put Ali and Louis on non heavyweight belts?

 

Hey buddy. Can you name the fighters in post #25?

 

It's hard to tell it was LaMotta cos you can't see his face, now I look at it, it does look a little like him, probably should have guessed at LaMotta seeing as the guy in the picture's on the floor like LaMotta always was.

Doesn't look anything like Polanski to me though. I'll take your word for it, maybe it's the angle and facial expression and the different haircut.

Yup, Polanski had to gain a lot of muscle mass so that his lightweight frame would make the super heavyweight limit.

It also changed his hair and made him African-American, due to "recessive" genes becoming prevalent during weight gain... some crazy fanatics still insist that Polanski had died years before and was being replaced with a 7" tall black man.

The fight itself was at a 310lb catchweight.

Of course in the end this favoured Roman, for as we all know... bigger muscles equals more punching power.

 

I believe louis and ali are always on there and then the last 2 champions to hold the title are on there?

not 100% on this if wrong please correct moi!!
