If I had to pick one I'll go with the easy one ... Sugar Ray Robinson. He just looked so effortless ... whether he was absorbing body shots and responding or moving around his opponent and launching a stream of shots that seemed to flow over his opponent. And he did it all with power to boot. I love...

Never saw a prime Snipes (before my time), so all I remember is his beating by Jorge Luis Gonzalez. If memory serves, Snipes was very brave before being stopped in the latter stages of the fight. Gonzalez was a real cocky git (prolonged the beating) so it was pretty sweet when Bowe destroyed him 18...

He never got a title shot again, he was frozen out of the title picture, not sure why. I remember there being a big call for him to be given a shot at Tyson's title, because Snipes was a contender for most of his career until the last few years, but team Tyson didn't want to know.

C'mon Camacho made that fight with his trash talkin. He was gracious in defeat and Chavez understood that he was hypin the fight. Camacho is New Yorican and brash ... what'd you expect him to do? Besides he had every right to be brazen ... he had skills that you haven't seen matched very often. Oh y...
