There wasn't a single strand out of place.

Yes it was, full credit to Earnie, fair is fair.

* He 'dislodged' Muhammad Ali's brain and ruined the man.
Years upon years of using his head as a punching bag to tire out his opponents ruined the man, not the single shot from Earnie which failed to knock him even down.

* He floored the 5th Greatest Heavyweight of All-Time. 'Larry Holmes'.
Subjective assessment of greatness, the Larry Holmes Shavers fought was basically a cruiser and inexperienced.

* He was the only human to floor and 'Knockout' > Roy 'Tiger' Williams.
Even Ross Puritty, Perhaps the hardest chin that ever boxed was stopped once by a mediocre opponent (he finished on his feet still).

* Devastating early KO's over 'highly regarded' Howard Smith and 'rock-jawed' Henry Clark.
Never heard of them either.

* The only man to floor and Knockout 'Lil' Jimmy Young.
Bummy Cruiser. A further embarrassment to the golden era considering he beat the 2 top names of the golden era, Ali and Foreman, the house of cards wavers some more.

Shall we continue.
I would rather not LOL
