Again, the difficulty of comparing eras, I suppose.

For me right now, Ali will always be the no.1 heavyweight, but it isn't Usyk's fault that he didn't get to face the likes of Frazier, Foreman, Norton, Liston.

He's proven himself definitively in the era in which he found himself.

He never faced ‘Enry’s ‘Ammer either

It would have been a points decision.

In fairness to Bugner he was a lot better than credited for.
He just hadn’t got that killer instinct.

He killed someone. That was the problem.

Yes, I forgot that.
Bad choice of word on my behalf.

Joe Joyce was just winning before he inexplicably retired (probably for good) in the eleventh.
