Sorry Boxbuzz but of course you're right - the day may come when 'The Bestest' will be better than 'The Greatest' :-)

I'm starting to lean to the Brown Bomber in this matter.

He succeeded mightily in his biggest moment, Ali failed in his.

Both Ali and Louis had several "biggest moments." Usually but not always they each came through with a win.

Who said I was joking? Your description:

"His opposition wasn't all weak and it's something that nobody else has ever done.The accomplishment speaks for itself."

fits Marciano to a T.

?? would that have been the first Schmeling fight?

How would Joe have faired against Louis on one of those "biggest moments"?

And when you have no rational response, you resort to insults.

You remind me of the old lawyer's saying:

"When the law is on your side, pound the law;

when the facts are on your side, pound the facts;

when nothing is on your side, pound the table.
"

Clearly, when you have nothing on your side, you "pound the table" using mindless insults.

Louis-Schmeling II was the Brown Bomber's big moment, to my way of thinking.

The FOTC was Ali's big moment, in which he got beat fair and square.

Of course the media endlessly tries to make Manila the big moment, but they weren't the same fighters then and the moment wasn't nearly the same.

Frazier-Louis? Very tough call, imo.

I would take Frazier. Louis admittedly didn't like pressure.

Of course, on career accomplishment, Louis clearly out ranks Frazier.

Rational response to what? You're slipping further into the abyss Ray. I'm just a poster on the internet. Try and find something better in your life. I'm not nearly as important as you make me out to be. But I have to give you credit for getting who I was talking to this time without a quote. Must be a good day. :TU:

These days in our current culture the facts, and the law have little to fear.

Tables on the other hand, are shaking and being handed an arse whooping on a chronic and continuous basis.

My Policy has always been full disclosure/ full transparency.

Well, tell us how you really feel G.I. And Allow me to respond to your thoughtful yet critical appraisal.

1. I appreciate you addressing me as a deity....seriously it gives one a sense of honor, and ups the ol' self esteem.

2. As for your chronic expressed disappointment in my management of grammar priorities such as your and you're.....perhaps it's just a typists blunder....that pesky ' character and that "e" just getting missed from time to time due to my blazing rapid fire typing technique....or, on a more serious and self reflecting note..perhaps I'm not properly educated....in which case, you shouldn't embarrass me in front of the entire forum like this, it's a perverse habit, and for all you know I'm sensitive.

3. .....on the other hand, Never dismiss the possibility that I may enjoy pushing a benign button now and again. I've always believed that we are in charge of said buttons. So for all you know I may simply find it interesting to see who among us still has.....there.... work cut out for them. I trust you're aware I'm not attempting to be cruel, just curious.

4. Now, to the more serious charge you level, that of self amusement. I plead guilty.

In fact truth be known, I often visit the forum in direct pursuit of a smile or even a chuckle. And at times I have (kindly) thought of you as "Chief Chucklehead". So please know you are appreciated. And now I will ask (and feel sure you will be generous) for your forgiveness in this matter. I will also ask that you don't let this clumsy moment (of which I accept full responsibility) negatively impact our future communications.

Now...where's my beer?
