He doesn't. He wasn't close of getting to an upper level in history
I don't think it's that far-fetched anymore, although I don't agree myself. A legit case can be made. If you stress longevity (which usually has...
Tim Witherspoon could well have gotten the nod against Holmes, and his place in history would be quite different if he had. Also Trevor Berbick...
Even if this were true, I don't see how it is relevant. Imo the result is the only thing that counts, whether you achieve it with talent or hard...
I have watched some battle bots as well. Witch Doctor is cool
I have always followed pretty much all sports available in Europe, though not quite as keenly in the last couple of years (there's just so much of...
This is where definitions get tricky. Imo, there's a difference between 'best' and 'best peak' or 'best performance'. Thus, a guy who maintains...
I agree. Also, unless you stress peak form a lot more than longevity, I can't see Whitaker over Floyd, as painful as that is.
On other forums there are talks how Ennis was 'exposed' cos he couldn't put the guy away. Such nonsense. It is just damn difficult to look good...
Agreed. He is among the smartest people I know
:Jest: Awesome. FreeIke was a weird dude as well. He had a lot of bravado online, but obviously was a very shy man in reality
This! We deserve to know!
Roy Jones vs Rick Frazier is up there too. Quite possibly the most talented fighter ever against a guy that was 18-3-1 (7) and not even a...
Derived from the upset thread What fight in the history has been the most lopsided mismatch beforehand? To qualify it has to include a truly...
Going far back in history, Battling Siki beating Georges Charpentier was a monumental upset in its time
At the time Ruiz Jr vs Joshua ranks high. Joshua was still undefeated and unlike Douglas Ruiz wasn't even in the top-10, as he was a replacement
Spinks - Ali must be close
Wilder however is much more dynamic than those versions of Foreman and Ruddock. How would he do himself against them bears no meaning. The fact...
Canelo has looked good at 168 lbs and defeated fighters who were supposed to trouble him a lot. He is a very good fighter even though Bivol's size...
Apart from old men Foreman and Ruddock, Morrison didn't beat anybody, and even the Ruddock win was debatable. His next best victim is probably Joe...
Speed skating is actually a bad-ass sport. The strength of those guys is unbelievable. I believe Netherlands is more interested in that than...
A bit same in several East European countries. In places like Armenia, Moldova etc there is some fighting, but all the talented athletes take up...
According to Argentinians, Juan Manuel Fangio must be up there
Not an official source, but might be correct...
This is a really interesting observation. I don't know if it's a coincidence or not, but in football too Argentina has two quite similar...
I am almost positive basketball is #2. Also volleyball is popular. Boxing is definitely top-5 in Argentina, but compared to football everything...
Boxing being most popular in Argentina is laughable of course, but I find it cool that Sergio Martinez was once voted as the athlete of the year,...
Cory wasn't known for his power, but he was miles better than Mickey and the bigger man too. Could he win by KO? Also, could Andre go the...
I liked the way Smoger supported the fighters unlike anyone else. "...5, 6, 7... you can do it... 9" "you look beautiful baby" as he ruled a...
Another great bites the dust
