Ray Robinson va Archie Moore Mayweather vs Mosley (when Mosley was younger) Saad Muhammad - Mustafa Muhammad Championship Unification rematch...
Yep. That's another one that should have happened. Leonard and Hearns were also a great pair of rival champs in that time frame, but unlike the...
I'm not even sure a fighter as shitty as McNeely deserves to be discussed in terms of "prime". I think "Shitty", "Less Shitty" or "More Shitty"...
Sonny Liston -Even though he wasn't champ (but would have been if Patterson would have given him his title shot when it should have happened),...
I don't know that Sanchez was as confident in his chances against Pedroza as you are since he was never interested in making a Pedroza fight...
Also, Alfredo Escalera was a C-Level fighter and Ali wouldn't do any better against Tyson than Biggs did.
Tyson has alternated between being massively overrated and underrated over the years. On one hand you had the "Tyson KO1 everyone in history"...
Harold Johnson is another one. A great fighter who had the misfortune of not being quite as good as Archie Moore.
Doh! I was just gonna mention LaMotta after the Cerdan post.
Esubio Pedroza. He is rarely mentioned anymore, but I was unhappy that Sanchez seemed to have no interest in a fight with him.
McGirt was a good champion for this time, but I can't see anyway he qualifies as a "great".
What also hurts Spinks' image (and I was a fan of his) is that after he was lucky to get past Holmes in their rematch is that he sat on his title...
This. It's silly to just say a fighter's age makes him prime or past-prime.
Sounds like you just like going against the grain here. You're the only person, ever, that I've seen trying to make a case for Curry being in his...
Really? The topic calls Curry in his prime, which took place during his Welterweight title reign. So picking a fight from when Curry WASN'T in his...
:lol:
Yep. Irish's endless agenda continues. Yawn.
I can't stand Mayweather and I hope Maidana (unlikely as it is) knocks him out in big way. That being said...he's clearly better and greater than...
I always liked this quote about Shavers from Cobb... "Anybody can hit as hard as Earnie Shavers. The thing that makes Earnie Shavers so...
agREED. Some folks like to make it seem like it was a lucky punch from Tzysu, but that wasn't the case.
Every time you nuthug Calzaghe to some ridiculous degree while accusing others of bias...God kills a kitten. Please stop for the sake of the kittens.
Or what Tzysu is to you. :lol:
Like cdogg said, it's been a while. But there have been many lengthy discussions about this stoppage and Judah's shitty behavior after being...
There was nothing wrong with that stoppage.
Can't argue with that. :lol:
agREED. It's a better fight, but Hearns still wins.
Good thing you're not making excuses and pretending Hearns had nothing to do with it. Because when Duran lost, it was NEVER his fault. [IMG] The...
I didn't think Duran was going to beat Hearns, but I really didn't expect him to get his ass handed to him like that.
Yeah...McNeeley was really, really below average. Butterbean was also "below average" and he handled McNeeley without any trouble. There might...
Doorson was pretty bad, too.
