	George Chuvalo Vs. Joe Erskine - October 2nd, 1961 - The Greatest Win Of Erskine's Career - Boxing News
		But what George and Floyd did together in the ring at Madison Square Garden in February of ’65 was truly unforgettable, a battle worthy of receiving Ring magazine’s fight of the year award.
		Chuvalo knew he was more than just a durable catcher, as he makes clear in his recent movie, “The Long Round.” But his toughness was such that former king, the late, great Rocky Marciano, was moved to remark that if all heavyweight title fights were scheduled for fifty rounds George would have been unbeatable.
		George may have been deflated after losing to Joe Erskine, some thirty-five years ago, but that fight, despite being a fine win for the Welshman, was to become nothing more than a footnote in the career of a Canadian heavyweight hero.

		When George Chuvalo finally left the boxing ring before 14,000 fans at Toronto’s Maple Leaf Gardens, having felt the full sting of Muhammad Ali, his face was disfigured — nose bent and swollen, eyes bluish slits and a patch of skin missing from his forehead.
		In the end, Ali would win in a unanimous decision, but when Chuvalo ducked through the ropes and into the arms of his wife Lynne, with blood running through his matted hair, it was he who had earned the respect of his opponent, on-looking reporters and the nation.
		George Chuvalo had his own quips as well, saying after his first fight with Ali, "The judges voted for Ali, but he had to be taken to the hospital afterwards while I went dancing with my wife." Students are to compete for the greatest quote uttered by an athlete.
