  • I see where Joe Frazier got his style

  • @fillygirl93 yep for sure, well noticed

  • I've never heard anyone mention this, and I know that armstrong was not really remembered as a featherweight (since he outgrew the div. early on in his reign at the top), but I would love to see Homicide Hank vs. Salvador Sanchez... pressure vs. beautiful boxing (but Sanchez was like Marvin Hagler, yes he was a boxer and could fight going forwards or backwards, but they weren't the type of "boxer" who refused to dig in and fight when the situation warranted it...

  • @RapedByRepublicans thats a great comment, well usually i wouldn't bet against either of these guys and if i'm thinking right both guys would never have faced anyone like each other, mmm tough 1 but i would give a slight edge to sanchez due to his technical ability but you could never count hank out..

  • When you think about it, what a champion. Must be regarded as one if not the best champions there have ever been.

    Champion when there was only one title to win..

    Champion in three diffrent weigtclasses, when there was only about eight..

    Champion in these 3 weightclasses a the same time..

    And almost winning the title at middleweight (as many thougt he should have).

    And these wins against legends as Lou Ambers, Barney Ross etc.

    Cant compare that to anything.

  • @connymat yeah for sure, there are far too many sanctioning bodies these days, bring it back to win 1 title per division then we'll see who the true champs are, peace bro

see all
