Judging by the footage I personally doubt it. I'd put more weight in the loaded glove 'sources'.
Sounds like a cool place to go to school....
I'd lean towards Hagler, initially. It's a question worthy of a little thought though, so I'll come back to this....
Jess Willard deserves a mention. That dude was literally, LITERALLY on the bring of death against Dempsey and kept getting up and up and up....
Agreed. It could easily be argued that Charles has the greatest resume in the sports history.
Somebody brought up recently that they thought height was a more important factor in range than reach. As I recall I agreed that it was probably...
:dunno: Im not sure what you mean with this, Sly?
No need to talk Duran up to me, I voted him the 2nd greatest fighter of the last 70 years.:bears: I just reckon now that I think about it, Charles...
No offense mate but if you think Louis was Charles best win you probably need to do some more reading and thinking about his career before making...
Archie Moore and Charlie Burley are not far off. And when you consider he beat them both numerous times, that adds to their impressiveness. And...
Only slight.
It's hella close. No definitive answer.
Agreed on all counts. And in the context of the whole MM angle it's worth noting that Hide is a good 3 inches shorter than Ali or Holmes and a...
Yeah, well I suppose once guys get close to their potential and still aren't satisfied, thats where the problems start. Some guys only have a 320...
The point in weight training is to get stronger.:notallthere: Progressive resistance. Sure, if you've already been training for a few years and...
agREED. Vitali's a stylistic puzzle for most, but one the Holmes of say 77-82 was smart enough and still FAST enough to solve. The only times...
One thing I'll say about Vitali - his defence is purely about judgement of range and having the footspeed along with his height to get him out of...
If you aren't upping the weight there's ZERO point in training. Agree you've got to be very cautious and PATIENT though.
Most, no. Only in internet schools. The ones who go on to a higher level, for sure. 210 isn't a great bench, but it takes a few months proper good...
Cool. One way or another they're all interesting fights. I wonder if one day a super computer will answer all these questions for us.:lol:
Ah the internet. Where every average big three total in every thread is higher than your local powerlifting gym. :lol: 210s allot stronger than...
In the UK, it's apologise.
:lol: With all due respect right honourable Sly, not necessarily. If Floyd largely dominates but Shane's chin, reflex', speed, balance and general...
Not necessarily - he's saying he doesn't think Shane WILL have declined so much in 15 months. But if Floyd gets a stoppage, barring extraordinary...
It's embarrassing in retrospect how much we all overrated Shane & Tito. Both were very good champions, nothing more. I can give myself a bit of a...
Dude beat Bowe, Tyson and went close enough with Lewis in the rematch to suggest he would have edged him out in his prime. 'Loss machine?'. He...
Anyone saying Wlad and Vitali couldn't have replicated what guys like Bruce Seldon, Frank Bruno, Berbick, Smith, Tubbs (or for that matter...
The sense it makes is because we haven't seen him for 16 months, as of now Shane's shotness is a '?' and with it the significance and relevance of...
Yeah his personality is much more offensive than his cheating. In fact to an extent you have to admire his smarts since I think it's gotten worse...
Well, I agree.....
