    What makes me laugh about Tex Cobb, is that he took the best that Ken Norton, Earnie Shavers, Larry Holmes. Had to offer without ever looking really hurt. Then he gets dropped 4 times by some journeyman Dee Collier, and is finished off in 1 round how the hell do you explain that


    I know man, it's crazy. I was thinking the same thing; I just couldn't remember the name of the guy{Collier}. It is bizarre though isn't it? Guess he had a bad day or something.

    But after reading that article yeah, that Joe is one tough motherfukker to take daily or weekly beating from a young, ferocious Tyson. You know ICB; I always thought that guy who fought Tyson and lasted what was it, 6 rounds or so, was a tough sob. Think is name was Steve Zouski? He took some beating in that fight; thnk he was a coal miner from West Virginia?

    I think it was either a case of too much punishment catching up with Cobb or too many beers.

    I think Mike just said it to him that Once to make him feel better about getting the shiit kicked out of him, I mean he probably never did go down and could take a good beating but to go round advertising yourself as the "toughest white man on the planet"

    Glen McCrory was only a cruiserweight and was a regular sparring partner of Mikes because he could stay upright

    Does In Jin Chi count as white? He was tough but yeah, watching live, McCullough walked through some beatings, shame he had no power

    Met him once he was sat behind me at the Hatton - Mauser fight... Really nice guy was cracking jokes with Scott Welsh and Jamie Moore and getting really annoyed with Ricky's lack of defence till the KO came.

    I can't agrue with McCollugh, Cobb and Ward.....

    but what about Bobby Chacon? The punishment he could absorb was unreal. Sure he's a smaller guy, but the shots he took from Arguello, Limon and Boza-Edwards That's my vote.

    Bobby Chacon's not white though, and neither is In-Jin Chi. Maybe im not understanding ?

    think the writing was on the wall for years hence the hit and hold tactics at the higher level
