I was watching this 1/2 hour show before the Friday Night Fights and it was titled, "Top Ten Knockouts".
It had Bert Sugar's list of the top ten all time KO's and I have to say, I'm officially sick and tired of Bert Sugar and his ****** hat and cigar.
Brian Kenny was owning his ass because of his list and basically Bert does what all old timers do, create legend and lore out of the old fights to the point that no new fight could ever live up to them no matter how great they were.
I consider myself "old school" but there has to be a point where you realize the greatness of a fight no matter what time period it is in.
He had Dempsy vs Firpo as the #2 KO all time and I thought that was silly. I mean the fight wasn't even competitive and Firpo got knocked down like 8 times before he was KO'd.
He didn't even have Castillo vs Corrales in the top 10, bull****.
I love and respect the old time fighters but guys like Sugar, who I respect hi s boxing knowledge, just glorify the old timers to the point where it's impossible to ever compare to them no matter what.
For the record I agreed with #1, Marciano's KO of Walcott, greatest right hand ever thrown.
