I think Glynn Leach was at the end of his tether with Lewis! He had spent years publicly championing LL, only to see him blow it versus McCall when a win would have secured him the Bowe mega fight, scrape past Mercer when it was vital he prove that it was he, and not Tyson or Bowe, who was number 1, and twice fumble with Holyfield when Glynn had predicted a monumental Foreman/Frazier-style demolition job that would at last deliver on all the years of promise. When he botched it, again, versus Rahman, it seemed as if Leach gave up on him.tobyh5 wrote:Jesus!
Lennox loses the lineal and real heavyweight championship of the world and Audley Harrison makes his debut in the same month and they think that Audley should be the main picture and lead?

He was around the same level as Monte Barrett, if I remember correctly. Decent, but nothing special.Gnome wrote:I know about Harrison and Guinn but what was Baby Joe Mesi like? Could he have been a HOFer? I plead ignorance.
Cheers Asterix. I remember hearing he became wealthy through business, could be wrong, but does anyone know why he quit the fight game?

Why this nonesense is allowed is beyond comprehension
At this rate, if he blasts out Klitschko he'll be knocking Sugar Ray Robinson off the top spot. They'll call him Sugar Humble.deadpan wrote:Christ on a penny farthing what a farce!
We don't even know yet if he's the greatest ever HW called Anthony/Tony.
If you ignore the headline it's good for the sport to see a boxer on the cover of GQ.Tuan_Jim wrote:Martin... Liston
Breazeale... Foreman
Molina... Frazier
And Gary Cornish, Dillian Whyte, Kevin Johnson, Matt Skelton and the rest: Kenny Norton, Earnie Shavers, Ron Lyle, Jimmy Ellis, Oscar Bonavena, Floyd Patterson, Jerry Quarry and George Chuvalo.
The Greatest?
Not an unreasonable question at all.
Ended his career 36-0 but retired through injuries sustained in his fight with Vasily Jirov. He's now a politician I believe...Gnome wrote: I know about Harrison and Guinn but what was Baby Joe Mesi like? Could he have been a HOFer? I plead ignorance.
