I guess I am just running a little behind on the passing of the Greatest Right hand that ever lived. I got the news from Buster Douglas, my guy this morning. We all get distracted with things, I've been dealing with some medical issues, therefore I missed out on this deeply SAD NEWS.

Shavers and Buster Douglas had become pretty good friends over
the past recent years. I first had the HONOR to meet Earnie Shavers
in 1970 when Don Elbaum brought him in from Warren, Ohio, to fight on the Billy "Dynamite" Douglas vs Tom Bethea undercard. He was fighting Buster's Uncle J.D. Mc Cauley, of all coincidence. He was such a nice Gentleman. I was only 17 years old at the time, and
he treated me so respectful. At that time he had maybe less than
(6) fights, but it was at that Boxing Card, I got to see first hand the
power he had in that Right Hand. A lot of Ring Experts only talk
about Shavers punching power, but if you study his fights, Earnie
like the fighters of that Era, had to be very diversified in their Boxing Skill Sets. He could move good, had a Good Jab, Good Hook and his battles with Ron Lyle, Jimmy Ellis, Jerry Quarry along with Muhammad Ali, and his complete destruction of Ken Norton,
where all fights I picked the winner based on styles, With the
exception of the Jerry Quarry fight. If you couldn't Box of back
up, you better find a way. Because trading with Earnie was like
walking into a freight train, and taking your chances.

Their is always that strong argument of who was the Hardest
Puncher of all time in the Heavyweight Division History, was it
George Foreman ? based on his power in both hands, or was
it Michael Tyson. That is a really, really, hard claim to stake. I
guess it really doesn't matter today, We lost a truly Great Guy,
not just the Gladiator that he was, but a Great Human Being.
God Bless his Heart, we will miss him dearly.

One of the Greatest Fight's of All Time !

Just when Meldrick Taylor, gave Jc Chavez the fight of a Lifetime. His Granite Chin, his Heart would never, never, never, as my Latin Wife would say, give in to defeat. If you want to study what it takes to be a Great Champion compared to a Good Champion. Study Chavez's style. He would cut your distance off so cleverly by keeping his head in tight as he could to you, blocking you from sliding off to the side's out of the corner's. And Counterpunch you at every turn. Cracking you with shot's from all angles. I don't care if you went into a total Philly Schell defense, got on your bicycle and moved in out side to side, he wore you down, as good as any fighter that ever lived. Not everybody will EVER possess a CHIN or HEART like CHAVEZ. It's a Blessing he was born with. But you can learn from studying his films, and take notes. Pay close attention to all the little cute things he does sliding in under your shot's, gaining an advantage to Counter with excellent punishing shot's. I never seen a Fighter that could reach down and catch you when you throw a right hand, with a deep Left Hook to the body, like Chavez. These shot's drained, and weakened so many fighters like Roger Mayweather, Hector Camacho, guys that had never been cornered or tagged as much in their whole Boxing career's as they had in one single fight with Chavez. Chavez is one of the Top Ten Greatest fighter's of all time.

The Perfect Offensive Fighter of All Time !

I have been around this Sport as a Fighter, Trainer and Coach, and I have seen dozens of Great Champions. But their is no Fighter in the History of Boxing any Greater than Sugar Ray Robinson or Julio Cesar Chavez. Just recently we have had a slew of articles and training techniques, all surrounding the Philly Schell defense. All starting back in the day's of Henry Armstrong, later progressing to Archie Moore and George Benton. I love it, I love the input and the attention and detail that must never be forgotten that separates the the BIG DIFFERNCE, between a GREAT Champion, to what would be commonly described as a Good Champ.

What I want to focus on is what determines or makes you a Great
Champion. We could go on and on for hour's throwing out names to no end, that would be excellent choices, but are they really GREAT ? That's a Class I reserve for a very, very, select few. It's not always defined by how good or perfect your record was like Rocky Marciano and Floyd Mayweather, it may put you up there in the Top Elite and select Top 20 Fighter's of all Time, for the past 100yrs plus, but Boxing has evolved just like all Sport's over the decades. The fighter's are getting better nutrition and advantages in equipment that improves their game, but their is no substitute for what I call the most common overlooked factor, and I quote " What's more Important Heart or Skill ".

When it came to defense and Pure Boxing skills you had Ali, Holmes, Pep, Pastrano, Conn, Tunney, Mayweather, Robinson and this list goes on forever, as it would with Great punchers like Louis, Marciano, Tyson, Frazier, Foreman, Moore, Liston, but what put's you in that top rating of the Best of all Time ? Opinion ? Records ? Weight Classes ? How Many Belt's you held over your career, these all factor into the equation, but sometimes their comes to anyone's tongue the name of a Fighter who truly sets their reign apart from all the rest. Now let me tell you why I choose Julio Cesar Chavez to be placed as the top Offensive and complete all around fighters Boxing has ever seen. Was it his record ? No, was it his size No, was it the Era he fought in ? No. It was the skill sets he possessed that combined the most elusive inside fighting techniques that I ever saw. He would make you miss from all angles dead in you chest, and make you pay with your dear life every time you were not in position to be countered by his barrages. He was smart as hell, cut that ring into quarters not in half, and kept some of the best fighters that ever fought in his divisions, afraid to make a move. Roberto Duran should be right in their as well, I don't mean to ignore his Greatness. But Chavez as Angie Dundee stated in this segment. The Toughest Fighter he ever saw Ever. Chavez had it all, I couldn't have agreed with him more.

Julio Cesar Chavez is a retired Mexican professional boxer.He is a six-time world champion in three weight divisions,and for several years he was considered ...

The Gypsy King Reigns Supreme! I don't care what anybody says, Tyson Fury has been the Best Heavyweight Champ to come along in decades. He has dominated the Heavyweight Division with his Great Boxing Skill's, his Granite Chin, and his ability to entertain the whole Boxing World, like no other Heavyweight Champion since Muhammad Ali. Not since Mike Tyson, has the Heavyweight Division seen so much excitement?

Coming from the Team Douglas mold, Fury has shown how important Pure Boxing Skills are needed at any weight class to Excell, The guy has it all, he can Box like a Middleweight or even lighter, and he knows the value of being slick in their and chopping away exchange after exchange, round after round, and beating you up, before he takes you out. His record speaks for itself. He has never lost a fight, and even the one draw with Deontay Wilder was very questionable, if it were not for the (2) knockdowns he sustained in that fight. I think Whyte will put up a decent fight, but at the end of the night it will be the Gypsy King's Victory by KO.
