Re: The Turd In Chief Is At It Again!
There was a case in England about 40 years ago where this bloke in Aldershot would go to pubs dressed as a bird & pick up squaddies. Several of them banged his bumhole outside boozers thinking they were shagging a fat bint in her Jack & Danny. He ended up getting a jail term , which he prob...

Re: Ali vs Liston II: The Controversy in Lewiston Still Remains!
I can't agree that it was the end of innocence. Especially considering Kennedy was killed shortly before this. Something tells me that was a more traumatic moment for people that Ali vs Liston 2. Well, which event you guys consider as the End of the Innocence? John Lennon got shot and murdered. Joh...

Re: Did Tyson really Duck Foreman!?
I don't consider anything other than Wins, Losses, Level of Opposition, Quality of Performance and Championships at stake.

Re: Where does Evander Holyfield rank among all time great Heavyweights?
If it was so great guys like Moorer and old Foreman should have been kept away from the title. And the top guys should have been able to avoid losing to massive underdogs over and over. The 90s probably feature the worst lineal champs since Michael Spinks. All this despite fighting rarely and blata...

Re: Floyd Mayweather jr vs The Fab Three @ 147
A win over a fringe contender should probably be zero points, maybe 1. Beating 10 fringe contenders should not get you as many points as beating one ATG near his prime. Having Holyfield over Tyson is certainly not proof is in the pudding. Tyson really does not have much of quantity edge over Holyfi...

If Leonard wins and lands more punches, has he not outboxed him? I'm talking about how he'd have to strategically approach the fight. If he's trying to play the jabbing and counter punching game with Floyd, he's gonna get the worst of it however he has the option to step inside get in Floyd's chest...

Re: Worst to ever win a title
Carlos Baldimir was 2 sanctioning fees payments away from being the undisputed and lineal WW champion in 2006. I just remember him being bang average. Would have been in the conversation as the worst undisputed champion in the 3 belt era if not for that.

Question Gil, how do you allow for the being more champions the closer we get to the current year. IE let’s say in the 60s a guy ranked as the top challenger fights the guy ranked 3rd.

Re: Floyd Mayweather jr vs The Fab Three @ 147
If you could build a welterweight to beat Floyd, then it would look a lot like Tommy Hearns. I agree with Gil, I can’t see any conceivable way that Floyd could beat Hearns. Straight away there is a 6-inch reach advantage to overcome. Tommy's jab would be in Floyd face all night. Hearns’ weakness as ...

Until he got tired Jake Paul was trying to survive, not win.

I agree with others who more or less said, losing to Joshua was better for his brand than sma...

Patterson did not have a broken back. He did go down once. He did show a lot of heart. Ali was just way too good. Why Floyd Patterson's seconds were trying to heal his back between rounds? Patterson was in pain. It is right there on the tape. I guess we saw a different fight. But, I applaud Patters...

I did find something on another forum but the member who was posting the articles always called him Roid Jones which made it a bit harder. If you search that term it will pop up.
It mostly talks about the Richard Hall fight and the mishandling by the commission and the IBF, WBA, WBC.
