Until it gets into posters' heads.... the bigging up, the exaggeration, the excessive flattery, the revisionist historianism is just nauseating.

It nauseates you?

A sense of perspective is required, here.

Ok that's too strong a word.... but it's predictable and somewhat inaccurate

decent early career

fought with everything he had against the mighty Holmes

Whenever a boxer dies or is under difficult conditions he suddenly becomes the GOAT

Oh and by the way - it looks like others agree with me

Ps I'm sure Bey would've Ko'd Joshua in sparring..... twice

And none of that has happened in this thread - it's you and you alone who has provided the tired banalties.

Er yes it has.... if you read this thread you'll see the insinuation that Bey is Joe Frazier and almost kod Larry Holmes

So we can add reading to thinking in the growing list of your problems.

The only thing more passe than enlarging the accomplishments of a dead fighter in an RIP thread is a forum half life showing up to belittle the dead fighter. Bey beat two heavyweight champs and gave an all-time top 5 heavy a good title fight. I'm sure that pales in comparison to your lifetime accomplishments.

Is that the best you can do??!!! So I take it from that you never criticise any boxer unless you're better than any fighter you choose to talk about? You are an illogical moron.... it's beautiful when someone forum idiot defeats their own argument using their own logic..... Jesus!

Fighter dies. People like to talk about his career highlights, usually in preference to their bad nights. Giving Holmes a good fight as a novice was a pretty good achievement no matter what came next.

But this makes boxingknockout sick...

He was in a relationship with Natalie Cole back in the day. That's my nerdy fact for today. v

I did say reading and thinking were a problem for you. Thanks for confirming.

What a risible comeback when someone has no point

Erm, your first contribution to the thread was that Bey is "one of the worst world title challengers ever" (he isn't), your second contribution was that "as soon as any fighter passes, he suddenly becomes a superior fighter and should've been world champion" (no one had made any such remark about Bey), then you're lecturing us about how "the bigging up, the exaggeration, the excessive flattery, the revisionist historianism is just nauseating" (again, in reference to something that wasn't happening), and then you actually had to invent your own "insinuation that Bey is Joe Frazier and almost kod Larry Holmes".

And I'm the one who has no point?

boxingknockout you are being an absolute Dick, especially on a RIP thread

RIP David Bey.
