    Floyd vs Baldimor

    Many people forgot that Baldi was the LINEAL CHAMP and Floyd took him like a gladiator.

    Floyd beating Marquez ment **** all then and it still means **** all now.

    Having the PERFECT style match up vs someone having to jump 2 weight classes while still cheating him on the scales is not a great achievement sorry.

    Just because he finally filled in quite a bit later does not make it a great accomplishment.

    Good Thread:

    My pick is Joe Frazier-Muhammad Ali I

    At the time of their fight, Muhammad Ali wasn't seen as great as he was until after the Foreman fight. The Foreman fight is what really elevated Ali's status as an ATG. The fact that Joe Frazier beat him first made Frazier a great fighter too.

    I don't know about this.

    I was there in person and everybody in the crowd booed and grumbled over the decision. I'd say it sounded like 70+% of the crowd thought Josesito was shafted...
