Made of a completely different metal those men.
Re: HD Fights of Yesteryear
Great quality. They were do some serious winging of shots! I could envision Marciano getting under every single shot. Well not all of them but the majority!

orlando canizales knocks down kelvin seabrooks with a right hand and gil clancy says when two fighters both try to throw right hands you cant get hit harder than that. he is right. knockouts like this one happen because one fighter was trying to land a punch and the other fighter was trying to create a mid air collision. if fighters stopped throwing punches and started thinking more in terms of collisions, and how to make one happen, they would land more punches.

That counter right over the top was nasty. Dempsey makes it clear, fighters dont always make good referees. He's counting & aint even looking at dude who takes another knee.
I guess he's a real man's referee!

Re: HD Fights of Yesteryear
Buster Mathis had defeated Frazier in the amateurs and Mathis really had Frazier's number here and really made him look rather ordinary: perhaps Foreman and Ali really watched this fight closely on how to fight Frazier???
