This guy is just on a wind-up chaps, he's barely literate FFS.

His argument against Hamed was that he lost to Barerra! Well if that is the logic then just about every boxer ever fails his world domination test bar Marciano who did manage to retire undefeated!

Tommy Milligan
Len Harvey
Benny Lynch
Ernie Roderick
Bruce Woodcock

ALL Boxers, 4 of them beautiful boxers with lots of craft, Woodcock was a 'stand-up' basic boxer.

ALL of them from an age of the British 'upright' style, basic classic boxer(s) and from a period of literally hundreds of them...very good & great Boxers.

American Population size vs UK population size, I think we punch well above our weight (see what i did there?) when it comes to quality and quantity of boxers.

It is a testimony to our involvement of the sport that we have not let yanks ruin it like they did by turning Rugby into American 'body armour and frequent rests' Football

I dont know what they would have done, but im sure it would have sucked

Yanks are just Brits who took over Virginia, decimated the Indian population and cross bred with European settlers anyhow. They're our Imperialist ego staring back at us, inflated, but came in useful for WW2 war loans.

About time the Brit Lot sounded off.

Someone had to kick start your forum for the new year.

Take it easy.
As for my comment.
Just build a bridge and get over it.
