[edit]

Is "tragically killed" an appropriate tone for an encyclopedia (vs "killed")? I'm pretty sure it's not appropriate and I want to be bold... but I feel that I may be out of line here, I find it best to tread lightly when it comes to people getting killed. 71.48.145.157 (talk) 02:15, 23 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Regarding dates of fights

[edit]

Why are they listed in the European style when the fighter was an American?? Why are the months first? This is terribly confusing. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.191.78.180 (talk) 06:31, 24 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Regarding Foreman's claim about Williams' punching strength

[edit]

Currently the article states that this statement needs a citation. "George Foreman interviewed post retirement recalled Williams as one of the three hardest punchers he had been with, stating they had sparred when George was a rising boxer." This claim occurred on the David Letterman show after the fight with Gerry Cooney.

80 wins?

[edit]

The fight history section only goes up to 78 wins. Where are his other 2 wins? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.174.71.134 (talk) 08:12, 21 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
