    You can't destroy greatness........

    Rocky Marciano KO8 Joe Louis


    Larry Holmes TKO10 Muhammad Ali



    Lennox Lewis KO8 Mike Tyson



    Everytime I see those fights they just remind me of Louis KO'ing Schmeling, Ali KO'ing Foreman, and Tyson KO'ing Spinks................................

    I don't know what the theme of the thread is, my friend, as I've never really encountered anybody who thought those losses diminished those fighters overall greatness in any way...

    But two of those fights have their share of moments in them that bother me personally, and I much rather not watch them again any time soon...The other one involved a fighter I've long disliked, but I still have mixed feelings about it, and again, it's not a fight that I plan on watching again any time soon.

      I dont think it diminished their greatness either.


      And let me guess, either Larry Holmes or Mike Tyson is the guy you have the mixed feelings about, right?
