    He ran from hard rematches, he didn't want to fight Machen like he didn't wanted the 3rd fight with Ali.

    Hard rematches? So losing to Marshall then rematching not once, but twice, isn't as hard as rematching a guy he widely outpointed?

    Word has it he sweated profusely in that first fight with Marshall as well. How can it get any harder?

    WTF would he have a THIRD fight with Ali ? He lost convincingly twice and then was black balled from the sport by the politicians. There was never going to be a THIRD fight with Ali.

    BTW, why was Brian London able to take Ingo the 12 round distance when 11 other guys managed to stop him ? Do all those other guys hit harder than ingo ?

    Yup I’m gonna need a source for that, because it sounds like bull and completely out of character for Machen.

    Embarrassed to admit I spent half an hour looking for this supposed quote before coming to the realisation that it was hog wash.
