As a big Duran fan I hate to admit this but I think Norris would beat him quite easily
I can't agree. Of course you can make an assumption with this data, but this is where 'unproven' comes to play. It is a relative term of course...
I hear you REED but I think you are talking about a bit different matter here. Since GGG isn't as proven as the legends, you can't rank him up...
This. I believe everybody understands this, except illuminati
So if the 'talent pool' of 90s fought in the decade between 2000-2009, doesn't that mean that the talent pool that followed is the one we are...
Well if you want to take it to this direction, the heavyweights of the poorest era would beat the best of other divisions in every era so...
This. Plus in the 1990s the heavyweight division was considered dead. I remember a headline such as "Holyfield and seven dwarfs" describing the...
Yeah but why fight to do that when GGG could achieve this by simply being cute
This is true. Also people tend to call a quick, dancing guy a 'technical boxer' while actually Golovkin is among the best technicians at the...
It would needed to have been a very strict ref to DQ him there since it was obvious the shot was not blatant and you usually can't get...
No, in MMs Hearns KOs everybody in the second round, despite their weight division or skills as a fighter.
Agreed. It is obvious that the ref was watching the whole fight as he should, not just the individual situation. At that point Lemieux wasn't in...
Not necessarily. Had Leonard - Hearns I for example been 12 rounds, nobody would be saying that it was inconclusive but that Hearns deserved his...
Just to clarify (and not to just spoil the thread): do we assume that they had known beforehand it is going to be fifteen rounds, or do they hear...
He went seven with Brian Minto last year (whom Dillion Whyte beat in three last month), he went to fourth with Irineau Beato Costa Junior (a...
Agreed, plus if we try to look at their careers completely subjectively, then they are pretty much equal
Round one Duran - Camacho Whitaker - Ortiz Chavez - Arguello Mosley - Floyd Round 2 Floyd - Camacho Whitaker - Arguello Final Whitaker Very...
I have seen him a couple of times. He seems to have a nice attitude as a fighter, he attacks hard and wants to punish his opponents. I am not sure...
Once again, not nearly enough proof either way. Golovkin hasn't lost more than one round in seven years but he hasn't fought anyone in distance of...
WBA clarifies double interim title situationThe winner of Saturday’s bout in Venezuela between Alfonso Blanco and Sergey Khomisky will be...
Agreed, Benn hasn't impressed me lately but a few years ago he fought this way
Sounds like a pick that can't go wrong
Prime Oscar would be among the best fighters Hearns ever beat (perhaps only second to Benitez), he had a very good chin, speed, skill and punch...
I was going to mention him and I think he does belong up there with the very best. His style is different but he is just as great. Out of the...
IMO if this is he hardest single punch and not the most effective single punch, then the best are the ones with the best right cross. It has been...
Sounds kinda reasonable to me in my mind
The thing is though, guys like Kevin Johnson and Michael Sprott have caused a lot of more trouble to guys who are seen as useful professionals. Of...
I think he does but Brähmer has avoided him ever after their first bout. Robinson nor Ali were able to win EU championhip. This enhances Roy's...
I am not sure tbh, to me Wlad has just never seemed like a very strong guy for his size. Wlad punches much harder than Fury for sure but I think...
There are a couple of things that make this fight interesting IMO I) Fury is bigger and stronger than Wlad and much more effective inside. This...
