    Going back at the start of the Millennium, the Ks did the same thing. American heavies are ever becoming more useless.
    30 years of Dominance?....Lets have a gander.

    Ukraine is a nation of fighters and survivors. Since massive losses to Mongol invaders in the 13th century their resiliency has only grown stronger. During the Soviet years Ukraine fed great fighters into the system and since declaring independence in 91 that natural talent has had the freedom to earn a living at fighting by going pro.

    Among the Heavyweights, the impact of Ukrainian professionals has been impressive.
    "Dominant" is, upon inspection, an exaggerated pronouncement, but certainly impressive!

            Poor Lar still smarting from Olympic Medalist Bobick knocking him out of the Olympic trials, forever an inferiority complex...
            Which champ did Norton beat for the title? Frazier never trained Norton.

              I think Queen is trying to say that Norton didn't win the title in the ring.

              Norton won a WBC eliminator against Young he was slated to fight Neon Leon. But once Spinks signed for the Ali rematch, and blew off the WBC mandatory, the WBC stripped and GAVE the title to Norton.

              Holmes then won it by SD from Norton.

                I don't find his content rewarding enough to really consider it. I was talking to Marchegiano the other day,he thinks this place is going belly up pretty soon.

                    Motivated by an argument over in a different thread . . .

                    I believe 1927 Tunney out points current Uysk.

                    He would out box him; Dempsey twice shows us he could handle superior power and not wilt; what he loses in weight he gains in foot speed; he is not a fighter you can pin down, to slow down, which Uysk needs to do; Tunney won't let the fight slide into attrition.

                    I like Tunney's chance against Uysk. 12 round decision.

                    P.S. Funny, but I can't visualize Tunney beating either Fury or AJ because of size and weight.

                      Oh, now he managed him and didn't train him? Which is it? Do you have proof for any of this, or is it just another of your hallucinations you expect us to believe?
