Celebrity has it's priveleges,Monzon was a great fighter but a piss poor human being.

Benitez was a defensive marvel and quicker than lightening at 140 but I don't think he could beat Duran in 15 rds.Duran would pound the body and force Benitez to the ropes,he might miss a million head shots but Wilfred's body ain't going anywhere.Benitez also had no power at 140,nothing to keep Dura...

Pryor outboxed Arguello because he could,Alexis was slow and flatfooted.Duran is superior to Pryor in every way.Duran by late ko.

Gomez doesn't always get his due because of the Sanchez fight but at 122 he was one of the top fighters of all time.Brutal power,defense when he chose to use it,vicious body puncher,and one of the most murderous finishers ever.Where did you get that DVD anyway,I got 7 or 8 of his fights but can alwa...

It's very hard to imagine Patterson lasting too long against a prime Bowe.

Silkov nails it pretty good,Gomez still had good skills at 126 but he definetly was a few steps down from his greatness at 122.Gomez would box but at 5'5" to Alexis's 5'10" he would have success for some rounds but once Arguello starts connecting it'll be over quick.Gomez was a greater fig...

Greb.I'd ask him a million questions about his career and all the great champs he fought then go drink some of that prohibition liquor.

It's hard to say,Arguello could be outboxed but with his height,reach,and power it might not matter late in the fight.I hesitantly pick Alexis to come on late in the fight and take a close decision or late tko.

I agree with BB,Gomez would break him in half.

I'd say so,it gives a lot of his less famous fights at least a brief discription.

Gomez was the best at 122,great body puncher,brutal power,and good defense when he chose to use it.Olivares's somewhat shaky chin cannot be overlooked,fan favorite or not,especially against Gomez.Bazooka by mid round ko.

That Pratchett fight was the first time I saw Chavez,I was very disappointed after reading so much about how awesome he was.Turns out he was awesome,just had an off night.

He means Moore wasn't very good which leads me to believe he is a lunatic.

You're crazy if you think Morales ducked Hamed.

Weaver stretched "the truth".

I am always amazed at how slow Hagler looked in the Leonard fight,I basically saw all his fights from his first match with Antuofermo on and was used to something different,even Leonard said he saw how Hagler was slowing down and that's why he came back.I still think Leonard would have beat him if t...

Why don't you just watch the Tyson and Holyfield fights with ring walks and post fight interviews,that would be about 1 1/2 hours,the average length of a movie,and a good summation of his career.

I just got Pound For Pound,biography of Sugar Ray Robinson,by a guy and Ray Robinson Jr,they don't gloss over what a prick he was but the bottom line is you get an unvarnished look,good and bad,at the greatest fighter of all time.And as Sherlock said the Max Schmeling autobiography is cool,a good bo...

If some think that Patterson was faster than Ali then OK but to say Ali only had supposed fast hands well that's just crazy.By the way I hope whoever measured Ali and Robinson wasn't the same guy who said frame by frame Vinny Pazienza was faster than Ali or Robinson or whoever the fornicate he said,...

I think Jack Dempsey may have trained some fighters but that may have been more for moral support or publicity for the fighter.I remember reading he was in Max Baer's corner when he fought Louis and almost had to push Baer out he was so terrified of Louis,Dempsey was disgusted with Baer's fear and w...

I think Robinson is given the nod due to his unique combination of speed and power,even opponents who despised him like Basilio and Pender said what a great puncher he was and they fought him when he was older,imagine him with speed.He was an iron chinned,inexhaustable power puncher with great quick...

I think the tired old and grey one said it best,Robinson is often thought of as the middleweight who fought great battles with Fullmer,Basilio,and so on but that wasn't the prime 160 Robinson.A great quote from Montell Griffin,"Jones don't want no problems".Robinson,pre Maxim,and even afte...

Tyson by bloody tko,he's too fast,punches too hard,and yes,too big.As an article entertaining this matchup once said Marciano's heart wouldn't give out but his face would.

I read Jack Dempsey's autobiography and in it he talks of the days when he was starting out fighting in mining camps and not making much. Frequently he would have to get a job to feed himself. He said that his FAVORITE job in the mines was 'mucking' For those unfamiliar with the term that means loa...

I'd take Foreman to stop him mid rounds,as most know Big George was no Shavers plus Holmes didn't have the power to keep George off him.Holmes definetly could beat Foreman,I just don't think he would
