Love to place a bet with someone if we could build a time-machine & match the Spinks who beat Ali against the McBride who defeated Tyson, if that person is banking on McBride to win. Easy money. C'mon, at least Spinks had some talent & a little fire in his belly at some point. Build a time ...

BRR is the dumbest poster on this site. Why ? I disagree with him a lot. BUT...he makes arguments for his case, as obscure as some of the things have been. If we all sat around and agreed, what fun would that be. I am here to discuss and argue boxing. I have seen plenty more say some pretty generic...

Your stats are worthless. Tyson's opponents were X per cent bigger? How compelling. Worthless? Your mother is Worthless. LOL, what a loser! LOL Take a hike you drama queen before I spank you. I guess we know now why the bulk of your posts & threads are constrained to Other Sports . At least you...

How compelling.

Worthless? Your mother is Worthless.

And yes, fair enough, it is BRR who is responsible for the format, so I'll limit my criticism to him for trying to hide Douglas.

Good idea, Douglas beat the shit out of Tyson. No way anything else could be said different for the outcome of that fight.

Ali's opponents at time of fight: total record= 442-60-7 284 KO's Average Weight= 205 lbs Loss % of total fights= 11.8% KO% of total fights= 55.8% Tyson's opponents at time of fight: total record= 286-17-2 218 KO's Average Weight= 224 lbs.

Pringles... I never said, nor do I remember thinking, that you were BRR. Perhaps you're inadvertently revealing something... Funny wouter, nicely done. Fighters fought less in the 80s than they did in the 60s, leading to less losses, and Ali's opponents generally fought each other while guys like T...

Ali and Tyson 10-0 8 KO's during the mentioned age period.

Leonard/Duran 3, Leonard/Hearns 2, ... Um, didn't those happen? :-? Not when they should have. I assumed I wouldn't have to spell that out. Even though Hearns kicked Leonard's ass, he doesn't get credit for it like he would have then. Every time I see Leonard talk about the Hearns rematch, he says ...

Howard Davis Jr.

Evoking the 911 Commission to make an incoherent snide remark about others on a boxing website... plain contemptible. Any Holocaust parallels, while you're at it? There is nothing insightful about what you are doing on this thread, neither in this head to head matchup system which barely scratches ...

Another advantage I see for Hagler is the fact that Monzon never faced a quality southpaw in his career. In fact, looking at his record it appears he never fought any southpaws, but I leave the final word on that to someone like Martin Sosa Cameron. Never fighting a quality southpaw, and then facin...

Probably because you've never seen the fights. You're just here to interrupt a good thread. Don't get cross with me because you are too challenged to grasp the relevance of the picture. Everyone else in the thread gets it, but not you. You're not even intelligent enough to hide the fact you don't u...

Dempseyfire... x2... and Biggs fought a dumb fight, might have had a chance had he continued doing what he did in the first round. Still probably would have lost, but it would have been more competitive had he not abandoned his gameplan. Hoooo boy :roll: Now Biggs would have had a chance against Ty...

"or were you speaking to yawn." First BRR was blaming his reading problems on me, now you are... unfortunate. And I don't think I need to give you lessons on how not to have a life, just keep doing what you're doing... like interrupting solid threads like Hagler-Monzon with stupid picture...

Pringle... *yawn* Holyfield would have beaten Tyson in his prime. Holyfield was more man than Tyson, and Tyson couldn't handle his strength and inside defense. Holyfield was hardly a spring chicken when he fought Tyson in the 90s. And don't blame me for your misreadings, pay closer attention next t...

Goodnight, Irene wrote:Yes, he was. With all the criticism Ali gets in post-peak fights, though, I say tough sh!t --- let Tyson endure it for a bit.

Sure, why not.

I think people today see Dempsey as a smaller guy, as someone above noted, and so they don't understand what a puncher he was. They are perhaps under the same delusion that Jess Willard was under. He and others were afraid that he would kill Dempsey. I agree about Frazier-Marciano, I think it is a ...

Tyson couldn't land more than a couple of punches in a row on Smith or Holyfield, who would grab him every time. Ali will do that and land four punch combinations on him. Said it before, will say it again, Liston and Foreman were better fighters than Tyson. Perhaps so (although I would take a peak ...

Pringle... I was talking to BRR about his comments about Biggs. You might have noticed that, as I started that paragraph off by saying "BRR..." Idiot. I wasn't talking about your pick, I was talking about your first sentence about Tyson having the potential of knocking Ali out. You're und...

No pictures of Roldan's devastating knockdown of Hagler, Pringle? Ali and Hagler were never the same after those crushing knockdowns; you wonder how these weaklings lasted so long in the sport. I've seen Monzon-Briscoe II twice, had Monzon winning both times. Good fight. Man, I know you're trying r...

Who was bigger puncher than Tyson who fought Ali? Sonny Banks, Henry Cooper...Chuck Wepner? Larry Holmes fought both Tyson and Shavers and said that Shavers was the bigger puncher. Holyfield fought an old Foreman and Tyson and said that Foreman was the bigger puncher. Take it up with them. A lot of...

If I remember correctly, the ending was controversial because the cut appeared to be caused by a headbutt but the ref declared it came from a punch. Had it been ruled a butt, it would have gone to the scorecards and O'Grady would have won. However, because the ref ruled it a punch, it was declared ...
