    The Holy that Moorer beat was rightly the face of heavyweight boxing during post Tyson incarceration, and Moorer retired him with a hard heart.

    In short, George beat the man who beat the man, and neither Cooney nor Morrison had ever beat the man no matter what U simples thinks.
    So now you rightfully consider that Holyfield an all time great, right? The man who beat the man and all..... since that is what's most important, right?

      - - Easy HOF, a top 20. Never said anything different despite what U box of rocks clinks.

        Actually you've said he was way overrated and have quoted his so call heavyweight title fight record to disparage him over and over. Now you're changing your tune? Lmao....so typical of you!! Clown.

          George needed to cut off the ring, was just following him around.

            - - No, just U being typically drooling obtuse standing in U own puddles.

            Like Ali and his fans making him out more than he was to his tragedy, Field and his fans followed that model save Field hung on longer stinking out boxing because he weren't Parkinson Afflicted.

              Tell us Holyfields record against standing champs again!! Clown. You will rake him over the coals in one post, and use him as a great win in another. You're a moron.....true story!!

                Tommy Gunn had one of the more picturesque lefhooks ever. It was quite round, but not "slung," like Frazier's. Gunn fought squared up with a high guard.

                Cooney was singled out by Foreman as one of three huge punchers he had fought or sparred with--Lyle, Williams and Cooney. Gerry's lefhook was not pretty. It looked ordinary and innocuous and not handsomely round. It was a harder punch than Gunn's I believe. Both punch hard enough to knock the other cold. No pick.

                  Biggest difference between them is Cooney used his hook to the body much more effectively and often.

                    Seems to vacilate on the significance of the "supposed lineal title" here a bit too. Kinda trolly.

                      So I was ****ing around with Cooney a few years ago in slacks and sport coats, and he just tapped met lightly in the liver, just a tap. But it with the stealth, the placement anf the quickness that impressed me, and let me know how ****ed I'd be trying to take this long drink of water down in a real altercation. Wow-whee.
