best heavyweight ever in my opinion

Respect!

p0kerVik1N67 eh I can’t put him above Ali or Joe Louis but he’s definitely one of the best ever!

@@pKerViKNG I agree.

MANCHESTER UNITED ok grass fairy 🧚‍♀️

my condolence my brother, I wish we all have good times with our fathers

wow just read this ,exactly what i had, i can relate very much i turned 22 in 1990 my dad and i both loved boxing and watched many great fights together great times , he passed away 2 months ago .

Nice one bro. Good thing u had something good to remember. May ur pa rip

My condolences. I was a teen in the 90s and my dad and I would watch every fight we could watch from USA Tuesday Night Fights to the first HBO Boxing After Dark with Barrera vs McKinney. I would rather stay home and watch fights with my dad then go out with my friends. Great memories. He also passed away summer of 2018. Those were good times, I miss him dearly. Love you dad.

@@marcoslaureano5562 ahhh Tuesday night fights and Ballroom Boxing was the shit. High impact bouts on regular tv. We didnt always need ppv back then. It brings tears to my eyes know how much we enjoyed watching those fights with family and friends. I was only able to stay up late on a school night because I was watching either wrestling or boxing with my grams and uncle. Mom was strict, but on those nights, she gave me breathing room, as long as I didnt complain the next morning 😂😂😂🥊🥊🍻

We NEED a 2000s doc Rummy!

@@B0BBYFL4SH I'm sure there is one man.

Same here!!

@@B0BBYFL4SH yes does anyone know of one for the 2000s

Nobody, unless your name is George Foreman !!!

He cuddly!

Only a fighter from that era my guy , George was a freak

@@letsseethatsmile9620 All of us

It’s pretty crazy. Recently we got to see Tyson fight which was insane tho not even close. But still I told my kids I never ever would have thought we’d see Tyson get in shape and fight again

Agree, this was great! Would really enjoy seeing it continue into the next decade (and, would watch one for the 80's, too!).

dugroz The 4 Kings saga would be incredible.

Rummy doesn’t get enough credit, his work is incredible.

Absolutely - can’t get better than that! My favorite boxing channel.

Well said

Matthew Tonnet “I coulda been a contenda!!”

He was useless

He is son of bitch

He had talent but he was a bag basher

😂😂😂😂😂

Yup 90s and this era are great. 70s was good too but gets overrated as many guys were really cruiserweights and no Cubans or soviets participated.

Yes I call it the Silver era, 70s being Gold, and both had George Foreman as Champ that is crazy !!!

Man, so was I! My friends and I stayed broke. We'd pool our money and watch every PPV that we could afford. I remember watching Douglas KO Tyson and Mercer almost kill (figuratively) Morrison. That was when Lennox had short hair and Evander actually had hair. Pro heavyweight boxing during that era was exciting and memorable.

@@larrythorn6265 your not funny, today’s heavyweight division is laughable in comparison 🤦‍♂️

@@robras2850 we’re in a decent era of heavyweights right now. What’s up your ass?

Pure warriors in that ERA.

Hell Yea!!!! Not to mention we had Julio Cesar Chavez, Oscar De La Hoya, Camacho, and my favorite Manos De Piedra. The 90s was popping.

a true unit

Foreman says Shavers or Lyle were the hardest hitters but I firmly believe it was Foreman. George has crazy strength.

His arm weighed about 180lbs ffs 😂😂

Shavers might have hit harder than Foreman but Foreman was a better and more powerful fighter if that makes any sense. Liston is in the conversation for hardest puncher too.

@@theannouncer5538 00

punk rock...

'90s episodes of The Simpsons are still the high point of TV in my opinion. It's a shame the quality of the show dropped so much in the '00s. I haven't watched the show regularly for about 15 years..

maybe not comedians comedy movies yeah but stand up ??? ohh wait def comedy jam yeah that was awesome

Don't forget 90's cartoons and kids shows..Esp. Nickelodeon

Revolver stand up now is becoming to pc

Yo! Hope life is treating you well bro. Never thought I'd see you on a boxing video. I've been a fan since I saw you auditioned! All the best and thank you for the laughs.

Welcome to the hardcore boxing scene. The more you dig the better it becomes 👍

So TRUE. I want his PayPal to send him £5 or even £10 for this honestly !! I would pay for this documentary. Amazing play.

best boxing video I've seen of any year

Best boxing video i've seen the past hour

mailboy79 YET IF YOU WATCH THE MATCH BETWEEN TYSON AND BUSTER BUSTER GOT KNOCKED DOWN AND IT WAS ACTUALLY A 13 COUNT

Boxing legends look him up

90s was the last great era in everyting man

Yeah I was born in 76. I think every generation feels that way , but it's always hard to see what's so great about other eras..I loved the 80s and I swear right around early 2000s the world went to shit ! Total shit. I was recently at work and some younger guys were talking about how awesome the 2000s were and how horrible the 2010s were ?! They talked about 2000s like I talked about the 80s and early 90s , it was just a surprise..I think the subject was pro wrestling then music and I interrupted to tell them "no you didn't imagine anything music got even worse and yeah wrestling peaked early 2000s then went south real fast" and to my surprise they actually loved 2000s music ? Im like "what music" and they say hip hop and metal mostly ? Lol I'm telling them 90s was a hip hop goldmine 1000% better than anything since and they looked at me like I was nuts! Lol it actually gave me a complex as I felt like the "old guy" all the sudden. I'm like "2-Pac, Biggie, DMX, Wu-Tang, Jay-Z (even though he peaked in 2000s) , Nas literally tons of great rappers and they give me this dumb look and one guy says "DMX sucks....and Biggie wasn't that good...neither was 2-Pac" and I paused for a sec about to unload on this dude and it occurred to me that I had the exact same debates with my dad growing up. I remember telling him "Metallica is better than Zeppelin" and also that "Pink Floyd sucks dad. No one listens to them anymore" lol I meant it too..but thank God I eventually gave them a real chance instead of just skimming thru some albums since it wasn't my "cup of tea" at the time ! Bro I even remember having an argument with my dad *(this is really bad)* cause I actually told him *Hulk Hogan could beat Mike Tyson in a real fight* ??? Lol I always thought as you got older you become more narrow minded but for me I *still* try to find good music with little luck. They'll grow up and talk about how great the 2010s-2020s were "remember we all had off for almost 1 1/2 years !! No school ! We all thought after Christmas break back to the grind like normal ?!! Who tf would've guessed that we wouldn't be back in school until the following Sept like 20 months later!!" Lol

@@mkpm1304 at least you Cana smith that it’s a generational thing, a lot of old heads are hard headed and simply refuse to believe that anybody could enjoy any other era other than the one when the old head was young. It’s really about you being young and enjoying your youth. That’s what it’s really about it’s nit about which era was better because every era had shitty things and good things.

@@mkpm1304 funny stuff bro, just yesterday I had a guy tell me that there hasn’t been any good new music since the Ramones started dying off and broke up! That guy was my youngest son, he is in his mid 40s! LMAO! And I thought I was an OG!

*1:02:56*

Wow now I just realize that .one hour wow

Golota was, simply put, a punk of the highest order. I wanted very badly to see a serious, professional effort from him, but he just didn't have the strength of character nor the moral integrity to pull it off. He absolutely made his fans shrink away in shame every time he stepped into the ring.

I grew up watching Golata. He had nearly everything he needed to be champion. He missed a key ingredient. HEART! he had none. Its crazy. He should have been something. Somthing was wrong with him in the head.

@Thou Swell It's easy for someone to say that when they never stepped in the ring with some of the best in the world..

I saw the Golota - Bowe fights and he was giving Bowe a beating in both. Like you said, he was nuts.

he was paid to do the low blow sht... Basically taking a dive. BOXING is CORRUPT as FK..

That's because golota was a dirty fighter

Golota might be biggest wasted talent in hw-history just because wiring in his head was total mess.

It's like he got into boxing just so he could punch Riddick Bowe in the nuts repeatedly

😂😂😂😂😂

@Jemal Rankin 😂😂😂😂😂

Stop telling lies lad

Tyson was one of a kind. People say 80s fighters sucked yet Larry Holmes, Jesse Ferguson, Tony Tucker, Frank Bruno and many more made a comeback in the 90s to fight the greats like Evander, Lewis, Mercer and others. Tyson Blew through the 80s fighters like nothing though.

@@thediaz07 he got his butt kicked by douglas who was an 80s fighter ,tyson barely beat a retiring james quick tillis and could do nothing vs bonecrusher smith or mitch greene, he was good agasint out of shape old fighters and nobodies. soons as he faced anyone who wanted to fight like tillis or douglas he looked ordinary.

@simon james If you watched the Douglas fight you would see that he was off in that fight.

Prinz Tiyo Dont forget Tommy Morrison

@Jimmy Crackcorn watch dokes vs mike weaver

Why do no one talking about Tommy morisson dont play tuff the best at that time in the heavyweight division is tommy morisson and mike tyson end of the talk!

@@jonathanlovgren7992 what?

@@cybercuckclips2311 no one is talking about Tommy morrison i feel bad when people talk about some of the greatest boxers in the 1990s no one mention Tommy morrison he deserved it

For sure 80s Middle Weight/ Welter Weight would be awesome

alex guerra chuck David Haye in there as well.

What about parker

alex guerra they tip toe politely past each other

shakespeare Spence they aren't fighters they're in the game for the money.

Mr T having about 6 belts at every weight class doesn't help either.

Yeah, i mean, the dude started out in the 60's and was clashing with titans during the 90's, he's a true gladiator.

God helped him man

Helluva nice guy. Lucky enough to briefly meet him. Class man. Gracious.

Cheating fury would have just been another bum in this era.

@@bohanabo230 stop crying 😂

The guy is awesome

Yup, I'd say beyond UKposts, this is the best accounting of the 90s Heavyweight division in chronological order, ever.

the amount of power foreman brought without even putting his body into those shots is amazing

Lewis avoided Chris Byrd and John Ruiz and he also avoided Tyson. Do your research. That's why he lost the WBA and IBF Holyfield and Tyson never dropped there titles and avoided fighters

@@therealdeal8277 Tyson avoided Lewis. Didn't you watch the video 😅

Didnt Holyfield avoid Razor Ruddock?

@@therealdeal8277 Byrd and Ruiz hahaha, Those two fighters were crap, Ruiz got schooled by jones jnr hahahaha, and Tyson paid Lennox $6 million not to fight him for the WBC title in 1996.. you Tyson fanboys are fucking hilarious.

@@therealdeal8277 lmao Ruiz is a joke and Byrd was boring no one wanted to see that shit

There’s a reason Mercer was nicknamed “merciless”….lol…watch Mercer’s 3 fights with Lewis, Holyfield and Bert Cooper….he only won 1 of them; but all 3 were brutal fights, especially the Lewis and Cooper fights…Mercer had an iron chin

You sound hurt 😢

@@pdot9999 you sound weak and would run in a heartbeat.

Not an out of place thing either, really. It gave Tommy Morrison drawing power.

Welter weight tho

It would just be Klitschko lol.

@M Bryant Tyson Fury is a good fighter tho.

@M Bryant I can tell u not a real boxing fan, heavyweight boxing is finally becoming good again, the 2000s were the boring era, the surge of fury, wilder and Joshua has revitalized the division and real boxing fans are excited about the prospect of a new undisputed heavyweight champion for the first time since lennox lewis

2000's will be all Klitschko Bros. I still can't believe Vitaly is a mayor of our Kyiv now.

C Co lol same here.i started at 2 am it's now after 3. Fortunately for me, i don't have to work 😆

This is so good - I’m rewatching it

Stop being lazy. Theres no excuse to miss work because you were up late

@@stonehorn4641 yeah! You tell em!

What if Bowe had stayed in decent shape more like. Big Daddy was barely bigger than Holyfield in their first fight, but has the same physique as Foreman towards the end, and Foreman was in his 40s, not his 20s.

What if Golota wasn't such a dumb Pollock and was able to NOT keep on hitting Bowe below the belt ( in two fights ) ? . He was clearly winning BOTH times . Smh.

mavis cruet,Riddick Bowe was the bigger than Holy field.

What if Bowe never relinquished his belt and actually agreed to fight Lewis. What if Tyson never relinquished his belt and actually agreed to fight Lewis. It's a Shame that Bowe beat Holyfield, because in 1993 would have seen a Holyfield v Lewis fight, but Bowe won and refused to ever face lewis. Massive Shame.

i think golota just didnt like bowe and couldnt give a shit about officially winning. all he wanted to do is punch the fuck outa bowes nuts.

Rummy does that for one reason, the 90s is one of the two most amazing decade for the heavyweight division (with the 70s) And since the second part of the 2000s the division is BS in comparison

He should do a welterweights of the 2000's. (de la hoya, trinidad, mosley, gatti, vargas, mayorga, cotto, judah, hatton, mayweather, margarito, tszyu....actually that might take four hours)

I'd prefer a Heavyweight 80's version than a 2000's -- going from Holmes to having a young Mike Tyson take over the world that would be interesting and a lot would learn from it

Robert Everyone has seen the highlights of Iron Mike so the rest of the eighties will be Larry Holmes against Ali to Spinks, not rich at the 70s and the 90s imo but still way more interesting than the 2005-2015 area

tszyu was a light welterweight

Lennox would have KO'd him

@@ChrisMisc1 Hard to tell.

George foreman said he would’ve fucked up his younger self

@@ChrisMisc1 Lennox had a glass chin, and everybody knew it. He'd have lost to Riddick Bowe, and a prime Mike Tyson as well.

Willy! Foreman would beat Wilder, Fury, Joshua, Ruiz, and Whyte in the same night!!

how surprised i am to see your comment here :D enjoying your channel and humour a lot . :D who you want to win in Wilder vs Fury rematch ? and do you think draw was the right decision the first time they faced each other. I am new fight fan myself and found this video very good history lesson . P.S. not sure if u are aware of MixedMollyWhoppery channel , its about MMA mostly, but the guy is sooo funny and i just cant stop spreading the word of mouth about him . All the best Doc!

The 90s were great for the HW division, but I remember watching Ali, Frazier, and Foreman as a kid. Maybe because I was young, but those are 3 of the greatest and fought at the same time period. The 70s will always be my golden years 👍

I think the 70’s were the golden age too. The 80’s were the most exciting. If you weren’t alive for the rise of tyson, its hard to understand what a sensation he was. 90’s were amazing. The 2000’s were the “Boring Age”. The Klitchko’s were like sleeping pills, I loved seeing Fury beat Vlad and end the most boring reign in boxing history. Jab and hold, jab and hold, for almost a decade. The last 5 years have been great though. Im glad Fury also showed how outclassed Wilder is if you make him box too! Wilder has always been extremely overrated, he fought tomato cans for most of his career. I think any true boxer, like Joshua or Fury, could beat him easily now that its been shown just how clumsy and how little real skill Wilder has. He’s got a right hand, thats it.

Just you, me and 12,000 others then.

i did

I did. It was awesome.

From start to finish

I've watched the whole thing over 5 times.

pkkiiiii jlooioooooohiikouo . kfyuuyú y787u77bkl ñbjuui87iiu8

Lewis was one of the greatest ever,only losses cause of lacking in concentration and evened every defeat,and retired at the right time and would have lived with Holmes and Ali.

Foreman is better than Ali

Ronnie Depesa 70s lightweight

Ronnie Depesa n

Freddie Blake 23:42

The Creepiest Of Pasta he doesn't mean that it wasn't mentioned, he wants the chronology to stop so there's thesis on how great Foreman's achievement was. That would totally fit in with this factual video...Jesus.

Watch Foreman slap around Frazier he was a monster back then. Then the miracle Ali pull on him. Took him forever to recover and make the comeback.

Jay Eisenhardt it wasn't jus a miracle it was a gift from God Allah shit Moses and Santa helped Ali too he was gettin pummeled the whole fight but Foreman gassed out and Ali took that gift and capitalized on it and also sold the whole world on that rope a dope bullshit. He ain't plan that shit he jus ain't want that smoke and hugged and hid. Horrible fight and strategic move. Instead of rope a dope call that future Parkinson's dope or hope I don't die fuckin with this monster hide on the ropes... I guess they don't roll off the tounge as nicely but more accurate imo

Yep, it was very objective. Boxing narrators need to do that more..... and fans.

Beerdy - Bruce Lee Central you my brother are a legend 👊

Beerdy - Bruce Lee Central Me too. It was a glorious era. Good times back then.

Bet your house was popular lol

What a great time for boxing. How many of yall remember the spending 70 to 80 bucks to watch a few seconds of Mike Tyson's fights..haha. you couldn't blink, get up to get something to drink or you missed the whole thing. You learned quick to have you drinks full and Your blatter empty before the fight.

troy felsman no doubt that took away a few future fights for Tommy bad reffing!

The ref was a rocky fan.

😂😂😂😂😂

Worst referring ever. Wonder morrison wasn't killed with all shots he took despite being out on his feet prior to last few shots laid on him.

What do you think this is the NFL????

Haha yip! You're right👍he does sound like him.

a lil bit

I hear more of a young Alan Alda.

... or Dennis Leary.

For as long as I can remember, I've always wanted to reply with a bad joke.

he was a dick but golota still would have destroyed bowe without low blows, both being absolute units though.

Golota had alot of problems actually. He did time in prison in his home country for killing someone in a street fight. I remember when he quit against Mike Tyson. I was so pissed off because i ordered the pay per view, it was supposed to be an amazing fight. Instead, Tyson hit him so hard that he broke his orbital bone in his face, causing Golota to quit in the third round i think. Lou Duva was screaming in his face "get the fuck back out there, you'll disgrace yourself", trying to shove his mouth piece back in. Tyson was furious, the audience was furious, throwing beer and food at him as he left the ring. His career never really recovered after that. Pretty sad

@@calebcompton9120 -- I'm no Golota fan, but fighting with a broken orbital bone is the same as fighting with one eye. Golota's injuries from that fight were more extensive than just the orbital bone--he was hospitalized with a concussion, and a neck injury too. If you're going to "quit" in a fight, that would be time to do it.

@@tswrench he didn't he quit he saved himself lol hate how people say they quit.. They wouldn't last a second in their shoes

To be fair golota was once injured in a car crash

Lewis was the best heavyweight of the 90's. It wasn't his fault that Bowe didn't want to fight him. He beat everybody...

Bowe was scheduled to fight Lewis. It's not Bowes fault Lewis proceeded to get knocked out.

1978utreg mike tyson is the best ever fuk gay lew

How is Mike Tyson the best ever? he didn't fight any of the top guys in the 90's except a past-prime Holyfeild & Tyson got knocked out in that fight. Tyson is the most overrated ever.

when you go to jail you lose too much bro. mental and physical strength.

He was one of the boxers that didn't just want to beat you, he wanted to hurt you. And with Morrison he wanted to kill em. 🤣

80’s boxing was okay but not great, the best and most competitive eras of heavyweight boxing were the 70’s and 90’s. Unless you want to go back to a time none of us can remember I.e joe Louis era.

Joe Louis era would be easy....He was Champion for like 12 years lol

the video would be something like: Holmes Holmes Holmes Holmes Holmes Holmes Holmes Holmes Holmes Spinks Spinks Smith Berbrick Tucker Tyson Tyson Tyson Tyson.

that wasn't the best the 60's 70's was for boxing period

@@christorpher84 "era of heavyweights" for a reason.

Yeah, what is that $4,000,000 'step aside fee' fee King paid Lewis to not fight someone in n the early 90's? That sounds like paying someone not to fight someone.

@per aspera ad astra ¿ ok for one you are severely underrating the depth of the 90's. You mentioned Tyson, Lewis and Holyfield but failed to mention Bowe who on his best night could give any heavyweight in history all they could handle. Funny you would use Frazier as the measuring cuz I believe all 4 of those guys beat Frazier. He woulda been too small for Bowe and Lewis, Holy could possibly outwork him tho that woulda been a war, and he'd be fighting fire with fire against Tyson. Also you overrate Foreman's performance at that stage. Yes he overachieved in his fight against Holy, but he still got pummeled. Then he was outclassed by Tommy Morrison of all people who wasn't known for his boxing skill. Then he's beaten from pillar to post by Moorer for 9 1/2 rounds until he was able to land that right hand cuz Moorer was dumb enough to stand right in front of him. Then he gets a gift against Axel Schultz, goes the distance with Crawford Grimsley???? I mean it says alot that while he was lineal champion, ring magazine had him rated the 6th best heavyweight in '95.

@per aspera ad astra ¿ HAGLER??????

malia - watch me breakdance
