Some of these are simply cases where one guy was clearly better. Not surprising that one guy won them all; maybe a little surprising in some cases that they fought more than twice.
I think Moore could have beaten Charles, just not the majority of the time. Same with Fullmer and Tiger. Ali and Norton should not even be in here.

Why not?Ambling Alp II wrote: ↑04 Aug 2019, 17:17Not to mention that Ali was past his prime for all three. This doesn't belong on this thread at all.
