Jimmy Carruthers. Pone Kingpetch. maybe Vic Toweel. Lou Salica? Petey Sarron?
He was quite a protected fighter though, IMO - his people kept him away from the top MWs at a time when the division was quite deep, then he made...
I think Johnson was quicker on his feet and his technique was a bit more polished. I also don't think Conteh fully developed his skillset until...
Agreed, Honey's stamina lets him down at some point.
There were times in Barkley's and Benn's careers when they were somewhat caveman-ish, although they both showed improved technique and boxing...
Ward would use the first round to "download information" before bombing Spinks out in the 2nd.
Who is the speediest fighter that we have footage of Locche fighting? I too question whether he'd be able to slip and dodge against a high volume...
This would be a test of Torres' toughness and durability IMO. Torres is the more skilled and polished fighter, but I think there's a big question...
I disagree with that description of Plant - he's an all-around boxer/puncher/fighter IMO, not just another Saunders. Benavidez would bring more...
It would be nice if the video let you see the punch land instead of continually zooming in at the worst possible moment.

Didn't Oscar fracture his orbital in the second-to-last round of their fight?
Fighters who rely on their chin like he did don't usually have lengthy peaks. Kownacki is in the same boat.
Hadn't Charlo lost his title to Tony Harrison during that time frame?
Coetzee-Page as well.
FW champ Poison Kotey received a pretty bad beating from challenger Danny Lopez in a fight that was allegedly attended by over 100,000 people in...
I rate Benavidez and Plant basically the same. Neither one is definitively more impressive or accomplished than the other IMO. Before Saturday,...
That's basically the same as asking for a catchweight, something Canelo conceded to for his fights with Mayweather and Cotto.
There needs to be an "orbitals" version of this vid: [MEDIA]
For many fighters, fighting in front of your hometown fans can be more of a curse than a blessing. It seems to happen most often in cases where a...
I'd favor Brown to make use of his physical advantages and win on points.
Benavidez might want to stop looking for ways to shoot his career in the foot as well. He's had two reigns as WBC champ and blown each one with...
Two of Pryor's sloppiest title defenses (Kameda and Hinton) came against southpaws - in both fights, he showed a lot of trouble avoiding his...
I think his peak began with the 2nd G fight.
Canelo should be able to win with better inside technique and more precise punching, but it's possible Barkley could still make this an...
I don't think that underlined part is a fair statement. Yes, Fielding was just an easy setup for another title, but he followed that up by...
Michael Nunn had the physical attributes and natural talent to possibly beat some great MWs that he might otherwise be ranked below in terms of...
Norton and Weaver were both much bigger than Rocky too - over 6-feet and weighing in the 200s. So was Snipes. Heck, even Shavers was notably...
Toney was outworked by Griffin and Thadzi at 175. Doesn't bode well for him against Qawi. 175 is generally acknowledged to be the worst stretch...
What impresses me most about Canelo's win (and even just the fact that he fought Saunders in the first place) is that Saunders is exactly the kind...
