fighting guys on the debut when you have had 200 fights would be like an easy spar ,40 fights isn't unbelievable .i'm sure floyd could beat a guy a week that wasn't rated in the top 200 like greb did oh and fighting the same bloke 12 times makes it a bit easier

Steve, the records for most of the fighters in Grebs day are very incomplete. Have a look at how many hall of fame fighters he beat. His greatness is indisputable.
I'm reading Steve Comptons (Klompton) book on Greb just now, it's excellent. I've also got 'The Fearless Harry Greb' by Bill Paxton. I'd happily lend it to you by post or do a swap, it's well worth a read.
I think I've come to understand that Ill Doochee has no "love" or "hate" for any fighter. He does like to find "others" who have an interest, be it positive or negative regarding ANY fighter...and the WHO is not as important as the strength of conviction. Once he senses you have a strong opinion of ANY fighter...in EITHER direction....he goes about the task of figuring out how much fun it would be to bait the hook, and see who grabs at it. Once the bait is taken, he has a grand time fighting whatever fish he has hooked, and is happy to hang in there regardless of the direction it leads.
I could be wrong, it's purely a theory I'm working on. Based on my own imagination, mixed with the written evidence displayed here on our forum.
Who "imagines" I'm on to something here? Please let me know if you believe I'm all wet on this one.[/quote]
Then why don't you ban him for godssake???! hes been allowed to ruin this forum which has become little more than a joke now! I find it very strange that you simply go round waiving your hands, and making some insightful/witty comments about him, yet carry on allowing him and a few of his weak minded followers to crap all over this forum!.[/quote]
I don't see much wit or insight. He's pretty weak IMO, sometimes his posts make as much sense as Duces.[/quote]
I was being ironic really, but your right, Buzz is weak, a toothless tiger who has allowed one twisted individual and a few of his dummy followers to ruin what once was a very interesting and informative forum. You see Buzz doesn't even answer our comments and concerns, maybe he just thinks its a great laugh what ducebag is doing. Very sad and disappointing, with the end result being that this is nolonger a serious boxing forum for either the enthusiast or the historian.
