Biggest Hyped Fight Disappointment?

That's fine. I can agree to disagree.If that fight was a dive the ref, Jersey Joe Walcott iirc was in on it, cuz Liston gets up from his "dive" & continues fighting before Walcott stops it due to a official telling him the 10 count was met or shoulda been met or something like that. Its a weird ass fight no doubt, but most people that say it was fixed have never seen the whole fight & don't even seem to realize Liston got up & the fight went on for a lil bit.
Well of course you have seen them fight much harder lol. I believe Floyd was 38 & Manny was 36. Neither in their prime. Both in the downside of their career. Floyd's style dictates that guys slow down even more is the thing doe. Floyd gets guys thinking too much instead of fighting. Again still a matter of Floyd bringing Manny into his world & Manny not bringing Floyd into his world.
You'd have to be naive to think this fight doesn't look like it looked if Floyd imposed his skills on Manny instead of vice versa. Everyone picking Floyd called this fight as it went down. No surprises there. Manny couldn't compete on Floyd's level, most guys haven't been able to either, no shame there. Just gonna agree to disagree here.
We'll just be running in circles otherwise. HahaComment
