Easier Opponent For The Dancing Master

[Yogi]

didn't you read the quote that angelo dundee said.

Yeah, I read it, but I'm certainly going to trust my very own eyes over somebody who says "he's like 6'6" ("like" he's not exactly sure himself), especially when it was VERY obvious by watching the fights that Williams wasn't nearly that tall...

Do you always believe what Dundee says, Butterfly?

"I don't think anyone can argue that the following fighters must rate as the cream of the crop: Muhammad Ali, Sugar Ray Leonard, Ray Robinson, Sugar Ray Leonard, Tony Canzoneri, Joe Louis, Henry Armstrong, Willie Pep, and ROCKY MARCIANO." - Angelo Dundee (page 271 of his bio, 'I Only Talk Winning')

He's also stated in print that he rates Marciano as the third greatest Heavyweight of all-time, which is backed up by that list up top there.

So, knowing your own personal thoughts & opinions on Marciano...what do you say?

williams all the way. ali hit the big cat in 1966 with over 100 punches in each round! that is unreal. he had 80% accuracy! that is also unreal. ali was hit a total of three times! that is again, unreal. it was the greatest display of the sweet science in its history, and ali did it at the tender age of 24! that is truly unreal. that was ali's prime fight. that was aliiiiiii!

- -I'd say it's unreal because it is unreal.

I doubt Ali ever threw 100 punches much less land them. This is a guy when in training who pronounced himself fit when he could do 5 rds on the heavy bag!

Anyway, it's alleged Archie threw their fight in the 4th rd that allowed young Clays 4th rd prediction to come true. That made **** Sadler so mad that he wasn't in on it that created a permanent rift between the 2.

Is vote for bloody Brian London who still may be with us today as Ali's oldest living opponent and was at least in fine nick as far as his health goes.
