Lewis fought a lot of tough guys and great boxers, and won them all except one when he was caught cold by a big puncher - no shame in that as a heavyweight.

The straight right that finished Tyson off (ok, Tyson was done anyways) was a wickedly powerful and accurate shot. 8:08 below:

I think you forgot about the Oliver McCall fight were Lewis got TKO'd , Hasim Rahman just caught Lewis with a lucky punch , that's boxing

Here's another article about The GGG V Canelo nonsense Canelo Alvarez not the star boxing needs if he doesn't face Golovkin - Bad Left Hook

More None sense ,My opinion of Oscar has sorrily hit the skids Why Canelo gave GGG his belt | Boxing News | Fightnews

The Canelo lot are pathetic; folks like them (and that cnut Mayflower...) ruin boxing. They get millions anyways for this fight, so just get them in the ring 50-50 split or winner takes all, at 160, and see who wins!

Spot on BB , the boxing fraternity is screaming for the fight which IMHO could be way up there in PPV and box office takings records, and all we hear is bollox , in the name of the late and great Boxing ref Mills Lane "Lets get it on " , BTW I liked your term "Mayflower"

The increasing public demand should force Team Canelo's hand in making the fight with GGG at 160lbs. But don't hold your breath..
Boxing fans know the deal, but the general public (bless 'em) only listen to the hype, mostly. The amazing wealth generated by Mayweather proves this, and Golden Boy seems keen to jump into the same MO, cherry-picking lighter / less dangerous fighters for their ginger hero to dispatch in front of loads of waving Mexican flags. Thought we had seen the last of this shit with the departure of Mayweather, but just as the all-pervading smell of bullshit was just clearing after the Pacquiao-Mayweather debacle, and boxing really needed something to clear the stench, up jumps Golden Boy to keep the flag flying.

Here's one for "the dream team" Lara give Canelo all he could handle last time and this sacred weight stipulation of 155 is just up Lara's street Lara targets GGG, Canelo rematch | Boxing News | Fightnews good remarks on the article too.

A bit of bad news I'm afraid ,lets hope its not as bad as portrayed in the article Concern grows over Muhammad Ali?s condition | Boxing News | Fightnews

Oh God, Facebook repostings of a dead zoo gorilla have clogged up the in tray, along with the latest reposts of Classuis Clays death.

Be interesting to know how many posters here saw Ali fight.
I was once lucky enough to be in the right place at the right time.

Sure, on television...Heard of him as kid in the sixties...Said George Chuvalo was one of his toughest fights ever...

Lomachenko sent a message out to the other Super Featherweights on Saturday with a KO of 2016 contender.

Vasyl Lomachenko won his second world title in just his seventh pro fight on Saturday night's HBO Boxing After Dark show, flattening Roman "Rocky" Martinez with a left hand and a tremendous right hook follow-up in the fifth round, scoring another Knockout of the Year contender in a 2016 that has kinda been filled with these moments.
Lomachenko (6-1, 4 KO) has not been known as a power puncher as a pro, but he simply lit up Martinz (29-3-3, 17 KO) with this shot, absolutely turning his lights out. It was really a sensational finish.

KO here: Watch Vasyl Lomachenko knock out Roman Martinez - Bad Left Hook

This guy is really some thing special , you could see the fear in Martinez's eyes just before Lomachenko lowered the boom .

Kmart sorry to be the bearer of bad news as I know you are a devout fan of Golden boy and Canelo Tuto Zabala: We won?period! | Boxing News | Fightnews Interesting comments too .

Fuk me, when are these Americans actually gonna focus on fighting??? The money, money, money attitude is a disgrace - and you hear bloody eejots like Haye making stupid money statements nowadays. The money in sport is insane, so these tosser promoters and scumbags all jump on the bandwagon and make millions...
