Tougher call. This time, however, I have to go with Holmes. He had speed and movement comparable to Ali's, and he's certainly the most underrated Heavyweight champ in history.
Holmes would have taken out Foreman the same way Ali did.
Agree. Disagree.

The fight was set, they'd both trained, but the day before the fight, the promoter pulled the plug. Pity. It was the last great fight of the Golden Age of the Heavies (late 60's, early 70's), albeit three decades late.
I had Foreman. The tools at his disposal - size, strength, power - were still formidable weapons. Holmes' tools - speed, combination punching, footwork - were blunted with age.
Agree. Disagree.

Pintor fight? I thought Zarate got out and out robbed in that fight. Pintor's face looked like the Elephant Man's after that fight. Zarate didn't have a scratch. The scoring was absurd 143-142,143-142 Pintor, 145-133 Zarate. Only in Vegas I guess. Do you think Zarate got robbed?

In your opinion what were Big George's best five knockouts?
The man had what I call awesome CLUBBING punching power.
My five in no particular order:
1) Cooney - Remember how Cooney's leg was twitching while he was still standing after getting hit by a classic Big George left uppercut before Foreman applied the finishing touch with that clubbing right hand?
2) Smokin' Joe - Joe didn't look like he was smokin' in this fight. Total dominance over a fighter who was considered at that time unbeatable.
3) Ken Norton - Total destruction job on a damn good heavyweight.
Norton's legs looked like spaghetti as he struggled to his corner.
4) Jose "King" Roman - Jose looked like he was the king of the canvas that night.
5) Last but not least the slugfest in Vegas against Ron Lyle. What guts both fighters showed that afternoon in Vegas. I remember this one when I was a kid Cosell saying " a total absence of boxing skill just slugging. The way the public likes it."
I guess I forgot Moorer!

You know, like even a jab would make the other boxer back up in pain. The boxer that uses the needle could then be considered the most powerful boxer alive. But remember, this is a hidden needle. That way, people would never know his source of power. Also, another realted question, could a boxer put a small amount of dynamite in his glove and then punch a man with a weak jab and then the small amount of dynamite would blow up and send the other man to the canvas? Again, this would be hidden dynamite and people wouldn't know about it. A very small amount of T N T. If this man wins, I betcha he would get alot of T N A after the bout.

Mike is 6 ft tall, 165 ibs. Tim is 5 ft 5 inches tall, 137 lbs. Mike does not have a mean bone in his body. Tim is short but like a tasmanian devil.

I think so.
They brought (and continue to bring) new fans to this great sport - people that would not ordinarily be interested in boxing.
Stallone's story is great - down on his luck actor, sees the Ali/Wepner fight and three days later cranks out the first draft of what would become an icon in Hollywood history, as well as turning him into the stuff of Hollywood legend and a multimillionaire. Got to love America.

From a movie standpoint, they are all A class movies, extremely well made, with a lot of heart as well as commercial value.
They also foreshadowed events in actual boxing history.
Clubber Lang in no.3 was a precursor to Mike Tyson. Look at no.4 with Ivan Drago and look at the heavyweight division today.
Rocky 5 culminated with two heavyweight champs, Rocky and Tommy Gunn, going at it in the streets. The year of its release, Holmes and Berbick did exacty that in a parking lot in Vegas

December sees the release of 'Rocky Balboa', the 6th in the franchise
Can't wait

No biases... just facts. State your reason(s) why you think Pacquiao or Morales would win this bout.
