    Ali lost all 3 fights to Ken Norton
    Larry Holmes is/was the most underrated HW champion of all time
    Womens Boxing will never be popular
    both Liston/Ali fights were fixed
    Holyfield was a dirty, cheating POS and should not be as celebrated as he is.

      Yup. I don't understand how all of a sudden that tactic is considered "getting your ass whipped"

      it was a great tactic when Ali did it, yet when Mayweather, Wilder, etc. do it then they're losing.

            Lomachenko is being avoided by his weight class just like Rigo was meaning Berchelt, Machado and Davis dont want anything to do with him so he had to move up

              Thurman is overated.
              He didn't dominate Porter..close fight. Porter has always been a fringe top 5 guy to me. Wins over Porter and Garcia are great wins but he didn't impress me.

              Thurman doesn't have the X factor that I see in Bud or Spence.

                Richard Steele was not wrong. Taylor was already brain damaged at that point it didn't matter how much time was left. If the bell didn't stop the fight, Steele had to.

                  You got no idea how easy that fight was for him to just walk through him which is the total opposite of the real Floyd Mayweather.
                  You can keep denying it but its true lol. I denied it at first too. Floyd never cared about the fans or entertaining them, he would never give away easy rounds and "rope a dope". He even bashed ali for doing the rope a dope. Truth is he was very rusty, underestimated conor and was having problems getting inside conors range in the opening rounds. He tried to sit back on the ropes too but conor actualy had success just picking him off there because of his range.

                  Floyd then went to the last resort and just walked him down because he knew he could drop even more rounds if he continued what he was doing. And he didnt throw early on because conor was actually giving him something to think about with the counters. Stop fooling yourself man, floyd would never carry anyone on purpose he cares about his undeafeated record to much to even jeopordize it. And he didnt want to entertain the fans by being aggressive, he did it because he had too.

                    By fight night, Floyd would be favored to beat any fighter from 130- 147 in any age of boxing.

                    Pac is to blame for the fight not being signed earlier

                    The only white boys to truly beat bhop was kov and the one who tiger uppercut him out the ring.

                    Wilder is one of the hardest punchers of all time and he beats aj

                    It would take two fights for prime Ali to beat a prime Tyson, because he gets ktfo the first fight
                    Lmfaoooooooooo

                      I agree 100%. Good fighter, good champ. Easily disposed and nearly lost to Porter and close with Danny tbh
