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.
