      The best boxer from Africa.some say Azumah Nelson. Nelson is a close 2nd. He had tougher competition; Nino Benvenutti, Emile Griffith, Joey Giardello, Gene Fullmer, Jose Torres, Ruɓin Carter, Ellsworth Webb and Henry Hank. That era was red hot. Look up these guys; you won't regret it. Here's a documentary about Tiger.

    He got robbed by the Nigerian govt of all he earned with his two hands. By all counts he was brave selfless man who combined dignity with his ferocious style. A great fighter and man

      He lost his title to Emile Griffith at the old MSG. I was shocked when Griffith dropped Tiger with lead right lead late in the fight. An era of great fighting middleweights.

    A really good boxer. Saw him fight many times. Bob F was sitting in a bar and according to Bob, he saw Dick T fight. Said this guy would be easy to beat. So, Bob went to training, got the bout with Dick T. And knocked him cold.

      we must have been watching different fights: top marks to you however for putting up your enthusiastic biased defence of Roger, even though it is obviously an insult to the clear winner-Tiger. @@TheSnoopindaweb
