No mention of Sweet Pea Williams?? To me that was his funniest stuff.

ah yes, silky sweet sugar williams, the untouchable

[Cojimar 1946]

Not one of these guys (Gassiev, Hunter, Bellew or Briedis) have ever been ranked in the Top 10 heavyweight in Ring Magazine's Annual Rankings. Hunter has never even made it as a Cruiserweight. And this has been in a very weak heavyweight era.

None of these guys are remotely close to Joe, Frazier, Ken Norton or Ron Lyle. Or even Chuvalo for that matter.
Usyk's resume as a hw is a joke compared to Foreman's.
Foreman's is easily Top 10. No reason for Usyk to be Top 50.

Got it.
Ring mag is what matters, not official rankings.

Ron lyle? Chuvalo? Hahaha

Of course foreman has a better resume nobody argued that

As long as I have been a member, On Boxrec History we have always gone by the Ring Ratings. What are supposed to do, go by the WBC or IBF or WBA? Come on.
Look at Dubois for the Usyk fight. The WBA magically makes him the #1 contender to hype up the fight. WBC, IBF, WBO don't even have the guy ranked at all.

Ron Lyle is a hahaha? Really? Ron Lyle ?
Usyk fights literally once a year, and who is it against? Daniel Dubois? Is stopping a guy like that like that in 9 rounds supposed to something in his favor?

The gigantic difference in resume is important. The resume is the proof. The resume is what actually happened when the fighters fought quality competition, not just some boxrec poster pontificating on the supposed qualities of their guy. Who usually wins between a guy who has proven himself against a lot of quality competition and one who hasn't? The proven guy. Foreman more than proved himself. Usyk, no.

There probably isn't a gigantic difference in terms of ability though as a lot of Foreman's opponents were basically the size of cruiserweights and Usyk fought in a strong era of cruiserweights. Its reasonable to favor Hunter over Lyle or Breidis over Moorer in actual fights.

Chuvalo, Frazier, Norton, Lyle and Moorer is not a deep heavyweight resume by any means.

Why don't you or your little buddy resurrect the post where I called Cleveland Williams "Sweet Pea" or said he silk or sweet or unhittable.
Might be hard since I never said those things.

[Ambling Alp II]

ya, much about quality of resume, but james toney is a higher ranking, more decorated cruiser than usyk according to you

Due to some information that I was aware of until recently, I have changed my tune with Usyk. I now rank him as the #1 cruiserweight of all time. Why? I was unaware of his gigantic win over Hunter. That is truly a game changer. You beat a guy of that caliber, you have to be the best.

Furthermore, I now have as the #1 hw. The guy beat Dubois. Dubois I tell you! What a huge win.

One more win over a no name, and he will be the best pound for pound fighter all time.

While you didn't refer to him as Sweet Pea, you did say he moved well and other non-sensical stuff. Take it like a man Alpy.

ya you obviously werent very knowledge about that ring ranking situation were ya my man

tries to play the quality of resume card, but ranks toney as a more accomplished cruiser than usyk

doesnt say anything about toney's utter shortage of wins over ranked contenders and champs, but calls out usyk apparently not beating enough mediocre '10 round fighters'

consistent alp. for one fighter it's about depth of meaningful wins, the next it's just about how many cans they crushed. any measure you can switch to so the active fighter comes second lol

[Jeff_lacy_ko]

Your argued a couple years ago he was a good defensive fighter. Thatcher brought up him getting dropped a lot. You said he wasnt in his prime when he got dropped

He made fun of you saying you equated williams with sweet pea.

[margaret thatcher]

el intocable williams

cleveland 'the mirage' williams - just when you think he's there, he's gone!

Glad that you realize how ridiculous Cojimar is being - There probably isn't a gigantic difference in terms of ability though as a lot of Foreman's opponents were basically the size of cruiserweights and Usyk fought in a strong era of cruiserweights.

Wow. I mean, wow.

[margaret thatcher]

Ya, we should go with the fighter with the deeper resume of top opposition at the weight, shouldnt we. but just sometimes, not when it puts usyk ahead

[Ambling Alp II]

Your argued a couple years ago he was a good defensive fighter. Thatcher brought up him getting dropped a lot. You said he wasnt in his prime when he got dropped

He made fun of you saying you equated williams with sweet pea.

I have never said he was anything like Pernell Witaker. Period.

Do you really think that is a fair representation of what I said about Williams?
We were really talking about Sonny Liston, and I mentioned several quality opponent's that Liston beat, including Williams. He brought up the amount of times that he got dropped/stopped.
I pointed out that the only guy who did this to Williams anywhere near Williams prime was drum roll please........ Sonny Liston, whom we were talking about.

He always ducks it when I bring that up. I never said he was anything like Pernell Witaker. Never said Williams was a great fighter.
Have never started a thread about Cleveland Williams,
margie has started at least 5 on Williams

We aren't even talking about Williams now and he is bringing him up.

[margaret thatcher]

i actually didnt bring him up, my man oogs did, but hey i wont pass up the opportunity

Hes making fun of you dude
Just like we were all joking about kevin mcbride - nobody seriously thinks mcbride is any good he got blitzed by mike mollo

I mean, it's a hell of a lot better than crap like beating sinone 'son of james fryer' asipeli or wessy martin, that's for sure

clevand 'the ducking duke' williams

clev 'the weaving wizard' williams

clev ' the georgia phantom' williams

Please provide the list of all the guys that decked him during his prime. Hope this won't be one of those rare times where you duck an issue.

I know you have time to be on here 24/7. I don't got to. Can't wait to see your words of wisdom later.

ive responded to this many many times - the man was dropped at every stage of his career and hit the deck at least 25 times

speaking of ducking, how about james toney having a superior cw career to usyk based on the depth of top opposition criteria you suddenly are diehard about in this thread
