Re: Boxers who won British, Commonwealth, European and World titles?
hell of a shock if he does now. His face looks so badly damaged, as if it has been rearranged as well as scarred.

Did he not? Against Chagaev unless I’m inventing it completely

And Ring and Lineal. He said he wants the central area a few years ago.

I remember watching that on Setanta. He was a live under-dog going into that one. Looking back Chavaev was a bit under-rated.Ruthless-RKO wrote: ↑23 Mar 2025, 15:11You’re right. It was the legit title too not the regular one

White Tyson was pretty good. He's like a Pulev.PredatorHayds wrote: ↑25 Mar 2025, 12:18I remember watching that on Setanta. He was a live under-dog going into that one.

Some of these European are built different.

To me, was an average guy in a very weak era. I think his two best wins were very close decisions over Valuev and Ruiz.

Seems to have been the norm pre mid-90s.
FW's relationship with the WBO might have been the start of the change (allegedly)

He does mention in his book that it's the most prestigious and the one that everyone wants.keithmoonhangover wrote: ↑26 Mar 2025, 09:27WBF

Re: Boxers who won British, Commonwealth, European and World titles?
It was a very weak era. I just thought he was one of the better ones of the time and Its the first time I've seen him mentioned anywhere in a few years. He was very awkward and not the most entertaining which doesn't help.JC wrote: ↑26 Mar 2025, 06:36Why do you say that, out of interest?PredatorHayds wrote: ↑25 Mar 2025, 12:18I remember watching that on Setanta.

My days, looks like Chisora is getting a third and final attempt to get on this list.
