Maile Haumono was back in Australia two months after Solo was born fighting Marc Ecimovic in Blacktown.

Solo would not have walked in Auckland. Meehan goes on the inactive list next month, Lucas Browne, Mark Demori and Pete Graham are all Australian born.

So after Leapai at 1 who you got in 2? Haumono, Browne or Demori?

Perhaps that's how the various orgs should frame their rankings :lol:

You are only too happy to offer your opinion on most things. But you seem extremely reluctant to offer an opinion on one fighter by the name of M. Demori.

Why is that?

It is when you try and make out washed up old tomato cans like Calloway, Weeda and Reed are worthwhile opponents. You don't seem to be capable of objective assessment when it comes to Demori. I just wanted to know why that is?

I told you.

He never gets out these days but someone wheeled him down to that De Mori fight a few months back.

They even bought him a battered sav; never mind the mess he made eating it!

He was raving about that night for weeks.

He must be a relative of De Mori or something? Sure as heck can't be objective about him for some reason.

I remember Tony Mundine dominated from middle to heavy. That either that said something about Tony M or our heavyweights at the time.
Bit of both I suppose, using the language of the dream team coach, Tony Mundine was a gun!

Getting pretty boring in the recently financially downgraded shithole of a country you live in? See golden boy Price got beaten up by a second ratwer last week.

None of the better ones want to fight him. When I mentioned that he was fighting the same pugs as foreigners you like you talk shit. Go bother somebody else you mental midget.

That's no way to talk about Australia, Brute.

Putting aside the fact that you are a bitter old fraud, why on earth would you refer to Australia as a 'shithole'?

(I took the liberty of correcting your usual spelling errors.)

You don't get it, do you?

Why would it bother me that Price got exposed when he tried to step up?

I'm a boxing fan. Not a knuckle dragging old fraud who likes to play the jingoism card when he has nothing else left.

:wave:

Or did you think I might have had a man crush on Price like you have on De Mori?

When people start getting personal in their responses it is a clear sign they couldn't handle the frustration of being out debated.

It is abundantly clear you are so embarrassed by your distorted view of Demori you are not even game to place him in our top 5 heavyweights here because you know you won't be able to justify where you place him :lol:

De Mori has beaten the same tomato cans as Leapai, I rate him as our 2nd best HW ATM.
BTW why all crap loaded @ Brute? Do you get kicks out of shit stirring the old guy?. :bag:

Leapai has fought his share of tomato cans and maybe as many as Demori. Difference is Leapai has fought some good fighters as well. Demori hasn't.

Either has Solo and Browne - you can add Edwards to that list as well. I agree that if you keep fighting crap it tends to stick - However if fighting for a title or at least getting a descent fighter to fight was that easy then please tell us the answer?.

Browne has been a pro for less than 4 years and other than for an ear problem to Towers would have fought him last fight.

Edwards is a part timer and boxing isn't even his first sport.

Solo has just had a couple of better wins than Demori has ever had.

Demori is into the 10th year of his pro career and has never beaten a live opponent. Not one. If you think he has list his best 6 wins in order:

Never mind Convict. Offered Brute the same challenge to name De Mori's best 6 wins in order and he declined too. It sounds an easy task when a guy has 20 wins. But when you look there is almost zero quality.
