Vitali klitschko has an iron chin , good power and ****** height and reach , i think hes a handful for anybody! kirkland laing was a talented british boxer who never trained , theres more than a few . i forgot about froch as well !
    I like Froch - I think he is much better than a lot of people think.

          Castillo was shot and Collazo deserved a rematch

              Benvenuti is actually in one of, if not my favourite fight of all time.

              His first fight with Carlos Monzon. He lost, but it's a great fight.

              His fights with Emile Griffith are good performances too.

                  Marcel Cerdan, Georges Carpentier and Marcel Thil are arguably the greatest, in that order. Then come the Tiozzo brothers, Christophe and Fabrice and Laurent Boudouani.

                    Which Cerdan fights should I check out

                    I've only seen one fight with one of the Tiozzi bros it was against McCallum.

                      A typical euro fraud would be someone like Sven otke, Joe Calzaghe or dariusz michalczewski. The current heavyweight division is a euro fraud.
