    A very good fighter, who was a huge factor in why the 1970s was a special time for the Heavyweights. His war with Holmes is arguably the best Heavyweight match ever, and that he could beat Ali and then give Muhammad two incredibly close battles, helps show how good he was.

    RIP to him, the man that IMO beat Ali 3 out of 3 times. He didn't have the technique to handle the big bombers very well, but his amazing jab and crab defense style were absolute poison to slick boxers like Ali and Holmes.
