People greatly exaggerate Sandesr' ability because of the Klitschko fight. He never beat anyone else worth mentioning. he wasn't even a ranked contender before that fight. He had very limited ability. Likewise, people often underrate Norton based on fights when he was past it. A prime Norton was sev...

The Orange President promised that every American adult would receive $5000 if the Republicans maintain the majority in the House and the Senate. Does this sound familiar? In the past, we were all promised $2000 from Tariff "Dividends". It never happened. We were also promised $5000 form t...

Sad to hear. He did have an interesting career. Gave it all that he had. He was willing to take on anyone; we need more guys like that. The fight with Patterson was the Fight of the Year. I remember one time I was looking up who the Canadian Heavyweight Champion was before Tevor Berbik. (Don't ask m...

Holmes was doing better in 1992 than Carl Williams too, who was losing to Jerry Jones at the time. Didn't help Holmes much in 1985 when Larry was lucky to get a decision over him. I wish a mod would step in and wave this thread off because your arguments are getting pummeled on all sides. By who? L...

I tend with agree with the idea that the "Average Joe" cares more about the economy that foreign affairs. Though sometimes they are intertwined. The Iranian War has caused worse inflation. It's also not just how well the Economy is actually doing. It's what people think it's doing. In 1984...

But when Biden and Obama was the President, going to war with Iran was not on the table. At all. Nobody was talking about. Nobody was saying that we needed to do it. If we didn't do it, the United States would not be worse off. In fact, we be better off. We would not have had service people injured ...

That was a good movie. It was loosely based on Carnera. Walcott and Baer both had parts in it.

Maybe we should stop supplying our allies with weapons. Of course, then people will criticize that.

We often provide our allies with weapons in situations like this when they are attacked. We can't control everything they do with them.

Frazier punched harder than Bowe. Frazier had a good but not great chin. Bowe had a good chin though he didn't take on a lot of big punchers. would have been interesting when they fought inside. Bowe was the rare big man who was good inside. Frazier's big advantage would be defense. Bowe was not har...

After the atrocities by Hamas in Israel, the the president Joe Biden supported Netanyahu in committing genocide in Palestine. In turn this led to the Democrats losing large swathes of Muslim support in the US, as well as some youth support, especially from the left. Now I imagine they may not have ...

The US got into the War because it was a random thought in Trump's head. Israel was not in immediate danger from Iran. There is no end game in sight. We have been told countless times that it will be over soon and Iran can't continue. We can only hope that Trump just says that we won. MAGA will hav...

Davey Moore; at one time he looked he might be a big star. His career just fell apart.

The US got into this war to protect Israel and Israel got out of this war to protect Israel. The US got into the War because it was a random thought in Trump's head. Israel was not in immediate danger from Iran. There is no end game in sight. We have been told countless times that it will be over s...

Anybody who voted for Trump, except for the billionaires, got exactly what they deserved.

But under Genocide Joe, would Gaza have been any different for the Palestinians?

Can you explain why you called Biden "Genocide Joe"?

I have no idea what he talking about either.

From a fan's point of view, I think many people wished he would have fought some of the guys like Weaver, Dokes, Coetzee, Witherspoon, Thomas, etc. But yeah, from health and $ perspective, his managers did a great job for him. I don't think his trainer hurt his cause but it's hard to say. He did hav...

Biden bowed out just a few days after the debate. Trump never would have done that. People seem to forget how unhinged Trump was at the first Trump-Biden debate back in 2020. There were crickets from the Republicans, except for the ones who actually claimed that Trump won that debate. But the Republ...

We do have to be careful how we phrase things. When people say things like "Politicians are bad people" or The Media is terrible" it helps those who are the worst offenders... i.e. Trump and his lackeys. In this case, Biden was able to continue with his duties. He was not randomly doi...

He got knocked out by Dempsey. It's his own fault that he complained to the referee after he thought he was fouled and got clocked. A draw should not detract from his record? huh? It's not as bad a loss, but it's not as good as a win. If you can only get a draw against another contender, that is nor...

When Thomas was at his best Holmes was past his prime and blatantly ducking the top fighters in search of easier opponents. So yes it's perfectly reasonable to put him ahead of that version of Holmes Based on having beaten guys that already lost to Holmes first. Gotcha. :TU: Not to mention the Doze...

The 'Loose ends" of the Heavyweight Champion fights. Gene Tunney should have stuck around long enough to defend the title against Jack Sharkey. A lot of people were looking forward to that fight. What if Jack Sharkey had not been disqualified against Max Schmeling ? (Ray Arcel had once said Ja...

Generally speaking Lewis would've been considered and was considered the #1 Heavyweight with or without Briggs yes, but Briggs would've legitimately had claim of the Lineal Championship, though admittedly a devalued version of it as it had already become in the hands of George Foreman due to the wa...

Well it was the heavyweight championship of the world when there was only one champion. The challenger was the number one contender. So I am going out on a limb and say it was a big fight. And no, Folley didn't take a dive. Ha. It was a meaningless fight. Ali's last fight before his suspension. Fol...
