    We haven't established anything and it's now about 50 pages into. Not one of you 1981 fucks has put forth a way to compare it...except your most recent post of p4p guys which I am responding to.

    Hey...you are chipping away at it...50 pages deep and you have added 4 more names to the 1981 list.

    I wonder if this type of discussion will continue in 20 years time?

    You be nice too, Neil. I'm surprised you have an issue with him...Ringo I mean.

    As for Rebel, I can see why you're pissed as he did ban you after Kimba mutually stirred shit with you and then hid behind Rebel's skirt. Then again, I'm sure there are people still pissed with me for turfing them from SecondsOut back when I was in university.

    This is still stupid because the more intriguing discussion would be about the depth of boxing...but if we look at just the top...

    Imagine if the 1981 guys all died in a plane crash on Jan. 1, 1981. There is no benefit of knowing how they will turn out historically because that's exactly where we are with today's fighters so it's only fair...I know you stupid fuckers won't follow the rules, and I feel like I'm trying to get dogs to speak English, but hopefully others who have sat out this stupid debate can play it straight...

    1 - Thomas Hearns 30-0 (28) WBA W champ, 1 defense
    Best wins...blowouts of 27-6 Pipino Cuevas, 15-0 Luis primera
    Losses...none
    Pros...unstoppable so far
    negs...2 quality wins over 30 fights...

    2 - Sugar Ray Leonard WBC W champ, 0 defenses of current reign
    Best wins...avenged only loss to lightweight Duran in comical fashion making Duran quit like a bitch in a competive fight, by clowing him and showing off
    Best wins...71-1 Duran, probably the greatest Lightweight of all time, but we are talking welterweight
    38-0-1 Wilfred Benitez...superb win...phenom beats phenom
    quite thin after those two wins
    Losses...tried to beat a great lightweight at Duran's own game...very close, very competitive fight, but it's still a loss to a lightweight, albeit a great one
    Pros...great am career, still young, avenged his only loss
    negs...lost to a lightweight, 2 great wins, but then it gets thin fast

    3 - Marvin Hagler, 50-2-2, WBA/WBC M champ, 0 defenses
    Best wins...wins M title on 2nd try by cutting 38-6 Alan Minter who was coming off of 2 wins over Antuofermo who Hagler had recently drawn with.
    Other quality wins over guys like Seales x2, Briscoe, a couple other guys with good records who I don't know like 29-0 Baldwin and 22-0 Colbert
    Losses...decision losses to tough contender types i.e. 26-3 Boogaloo Watts, 32-3-1 Willie Monroe
    Other...a draw with Seales, draw with Antuofermo in first attempt at middleweight title

    4 - Larry Holmes, 36-0, WBC H champ, 8 defenses, inc a claim at the WBA lineage by beating Ali in his last fight
    Best wins...winning title in epic battle with 40-4 Ken Norton via SD, not much otherwise, but credit for dominating Ali
    Losses....none
    Pros...No slipups in dominating decent challengers, great jab, excellent right
    Cons...used to be a sparring partner for Ali, Norton is a fairly weak 'best win'

    5 - Alexis Arguello, 65-5, WBC JL champ w 8 defenses, previously WBA Fe champ with 4 defenses
    Best wins...ko 13 77-4-1 Ruben Olivares, KO 5 18-0 Royal Kobayashi, ko 13 40-7-2 Alfredo Escalera, ko 13 42-9-2 Alfredo Escalera, ko 11 43-8-2 Bazooka Limon, KO 7 42-4-1 Bobby Chacon, ko11 46-0 Ruben Castillo, ko 5 34-6-3 Rolando Navarrette, ko 8 27-1 Cornelius Boza Edwards, SW10 67-2 Jose Luis Ramirez
    Losses...ko 4 and sd6 when 17 years old, tko 6 6-4 Jorge Reyes, L15 39-4-2 Ernesto Marcel for 1st shot at WBA Fe title 6+ years ago, Majority Loss 10 to 22-6-2 Villomar Fernandez a couple of years ago
    Pros...Great style, excellent technique, excellent power
    Cons...5 losses to nobody too great, but 3 were long, long ago...

    6 - Wilfredo Gomez - 31-0-1 (31), WBC JFe with 13 defenses
    Wins...Classic ko5 over 52-0 (51) WBC B champ Carlos Zarate, ko5 40-1 Nicky Perez
    Losses...none. Draw in 1st pro fight
    Pros...Great record, great champ
    Cons...the resume is sort of thin, especially for 13 defenses, but it's impressive nonetheless

    7 - Eddie Mustafa Muhammad 37-4-1 - WBA LH with 2 defenses
    Wins TKO11 24-3 Marvin Johnson to win belt, tko10 19-1 Jerry Martin, tko 3 34-0-2 Koopmans, SW 13-2-1 MSM
    Losses L10 15-1 Radames Cabrera, SL10 51-14-2 Bennie Briscoe, L15 47-6-4 Victor Galindez for first shot at WBA LH title, L12 12-0-1 inmate James Scott
    Pros...Fun to watch
    Cons...overrated tough guy, imo. Doubt he belongs on a p4p list, Guessing American bias here

    8 - Matt Saad Muhammmad, 28-3-2 WBC LH with 5 defenses
    Wins...several quality wins
    Losses...L6 1-0 McGee, ML10 16-1 Marvin Camel, SL10 20-2-1 EMM
    Draw 6 2-1 McGee II, Draw 10 15-1 Matt Parlov
    Pros...In very tough coming up, 15 fight winning streak, won FOY last year vs Yaqui Lopez, fun to watch, better credentials than EMM on paper
    Cons...another overrated tough guy, imo, but solid resume

    9 - Wilfred Benitez - 40-1-1 no title, former WBA JW (2 def), former WBC W (2 def)
    Wins...SW 15 74-9-3 Antonio Cervantes (to become youngest beltholder), SW10 and MW10 over 14-0, 15-1 Bruce Curry, SW15 27-1-3 Carlos Palomino, W10 50-4-2 Pete Ranzany
    Losses...TKO 15 Ray Leonard
    Other...some close calls, Draw 10 to 22-6-4 Harold Weston
    Pros...defensive expert, phenom youngster
    Cons...Obviously not an ass-kicker

    10 - Roberto Duran - Fuck Duran

    10b -Aaron Pryor - 27-0 (25) - WBA JW with 1 defense
    Wins... tko 10 17-1-2 Leonidas Asprilla, ko4 87-10-3 Antonio Cervantes to win title
    Losses...none
    Pros....whirlwind with endless stamina, gets the ko almost every time
    Cons...resume is thin
    Pretty record, fun to watch, relentless, underrated on this list, but thin resume counts against him

    If it does, I guarantee that 2011 will dominate. Boxing will suck so bad by 2031 that 1981 6th grade girls could win titles because no one will know how to fight by that time

    I shouldn't have said skirt. I'm fine with Rebel now regardless of all that shameless dicksucking he did on the part of Chi-Town Slugger/Diesel/Flex Fartsmell. Rebs is fine by me.

    Oh, ok. Cool. I thought perhaps I had missed something. It's too bad you weren't allowed to continue with Kimba. That was some of the cruelest, funniest stuff I ever read. Ah well, I guess he didn't have the stomach for it.

    Actually, Einstein, these 4 names were on my original list. So you are wrong twice here...about the names on my original list and thinking your comment was clever.

    This, of course, goes back to my comments about you needing the last word so bad you will say anything, no matter how useless it is.

    Good God are you one stupid fuck.

    You want me to include these fighters as justification for his #1 P4P ranking?
    1. Bruce Curry 20-4
    2. Harold Weston 27-8-5
    3. Clyde Gray 65-6-1
    4. Randy Shields 38-6-1

    hahaha...you are so fucking biased toward the older era. Holy Shit! These guys had some quality LOSSES mixed in with a few quality wins, but they also had SHIT losses and no titles. I've never said win/loss is the final say, but it is a relevant factor for discussion for anyone who tries to compare things fairly. But you and the other two stooges would rather go Bert Sugar on the forum.

    If we do the current scene and keep the qualification of the fighters you listed as a criteria for quality wins...then everyone who beat guys like Librado Andrade, Joshua Clottey, Orlando Salido, and Jorge Lacierva has a nice headstart on the 1981 guys, don't they?

    You can't put things into perspective. That was mY main problem with the stupid comparison. If those 1981 guys didn't have any more career, things would look a LOT worse for them in comparison. They still may be better than today's crop...we have no one (at this point) who can compare to 1981 Pryor at 140, but the light heavies? Hopkins and Dawson and Pascal all compare favorably to 1981 EMM and MSM. It's not even close.

    "By looking at a fighters record, I can accurately assess his worth even without ever seeing him fight or knowing anything about his opponents... That is how I came to the conclusion that Luis Primera, who never fought anyone, was a good win for Thomas Hearns. I'm a retarded person."
