i concur whole heartedly with you, Devin. because once they got a good punch in, the fights would be over. the Euros exemplify the old bromide "you can give it, but you can't take it"

Terrell was the MAN.....ok, so he didn't have the knockout punch, but what at jab.

I am telling you, I think, in his prime, he would had beaten BOTH Klitschko bothers THE SAME DAY!

again, as i said before, i am not any kind of authority on boxing, but just an ardent fan. but, i belive that despite their humongous sizes, these current guys would not have lasted too long when Foreman, Ali, Frazier, Kenny Norton Sr and Larry (The Easton Assassin) Holmes were plying their trade. by the way, Tupapaupa, here's one for you; remember John (The Beast) Mugabi? how about my homeboy Mike( The Bodysnatcher) McCallum? any thoughts?

Hearns really knocked that stupid smile off Duran's face. Tommy was a game fighter in his time, an inspiration to watch.

You forgot to mention Pepino Cuevas, Virgil Hill, James Kinchen, Randy Shields and Andrew Maynard.


Most of the fighters mentioned could rule The boxing game today

Mugabi was very much loved by me.......but someone should've have told him to move his head to the sides!.....Had he done so, he would've been much better than he was.

I did felt very sad when Hagler beat him, even though I was a huge Hagler fan.

Now, why do you have to go talking about McCallum?.

I used to like him UNTIL he kicked Donald Curry's ASS......I was a BIG Curry's admirer........and after that fight, he was never the same.

Shit, I can still see the punch going his way, BOOOOOOM!.

I still would like to see McCallum's REAL birth certificate, though.........because when he claimed he was in his 20's, he looked as if he were in his late 40's. JAJAJA.

Btw, all those Heavyweight you mentioned, in their prime, would've eaten Wladimir for breakast and Vitali for dinner!.

would that have been on the same day?

Thanks for the vid yumnuk!

Lennox Lewis ... avenged his losses and defeated every man he faced. Devin no more needs to be said. In this weak era the people can only dream of having Lennox back after underrating him. Also let it be said that when he fought Vitali, the superior Klitschko, he broke his face open.

Well the Wladimir title defense was exactly what I expected. Yawn. Luckily they also televised this weekend a great little brawl in Montreal, Adrian Diaconu vs. Jean Pascal. It was an action fight as both fighters have very open styles. Check for the replay, in the US it was on VERSUS cable channel. I trumpet the welters every time boxing comes up but these two guys and many others fighting at either 168 or 175 are also a deep roster.

Also there was a good MMA bout Saturday night I'd recommend, lightweights Diego Sanchez vs Clay Guida. Turned into a boxer vs. wrestler style of match, but with a great pace even in the grappling portions of the fight. The re-air of that should be on SpikeTV.
