By Klaas Mabetlela: Roberto Duran, Sugar Ray Leonard and Thomas Hearns form part of the ‘fab’ four (fabulous four) that also included Marvelous Marvin Hagler. The four were responsible for the richest boxing era of the recent memory.
For most people, the issue of defining fights will be easy for these three because they fought each other and their defining fights were against each other. It is not as clear-cut and easy as that because sometimes, a loss gains more for a boxer than a win would ever manage. There are fights where there are no losers and I am not talking about drawn fights.
By Bolish Gudgworth: Lets face it. Boxing today is not what it was 20 or even 10 years ago. I know this has been argued and debated hundreds of thousands of times already but it is still a relevant point. The job of promoters, managers and fighters has become more and more unstable with the decline in PPV and the fragmentation of championship titles at each weight class.
