    You're such a stupid fuck. I didn't read your post until today when I saw it quoted by someone else. And I thought Reid had fought someone 9-1 on his debut so he was the first one I checked. If it makes you feel better, I checked a couple of other guys after Reid and they were more typical in who they fought first. I had it in my head that Bojado had started out with a good-record opponent, but he didn't.

    What's most predictable here, though, is your failure to admit you were dead wrong. Not sort of wrong. Not mostly wrong.

    There's Not a SINGLE Poster, in Fightbeat HISTORY, who's Been Wrong MORE Times than YOU, mikE...& that's Saying ALOT...If There was a Weight Class/Skill Designation for Fightbeaters & the Legitimacy of their Opinions, YOU'D B the BUTTERBEAN of the Crew...In Other Words, You Bring THE LEAST to the Fucking Table...In the Midst of Daaaaaays Loooong, HEATED Debates, Dudes TAP OUT AFTER YOU AGREE WITH THEM....

    "Fuck, mikE just agREED w/Me!"...That's a Friggin' Debate KILLER...

    A Poster EARNED the Moniker "wRONg KING" Based on How PROFICIENT he was in the Area of IDIOCY...Also, There was a Guy Named "Kid Dynamite", an ADMITTED "Hardcore Fan" for just Over 365 Days, who SWORE by All Things BoxRec *ahem* ....

    Even w/the Comical, DOCUMENTED Histories of those Gentleman, YOU Stand Head & Shoulders ABOVE the Pack, mikE...By a Jury of your Posting Peers, You've Been Proclaimed, "Poster Most Likely to Have DOWNS SYNDROME", Based EXCLUSIVELY on your Typewritten Boxing Thoughts...So SHUTthefuckUP, Stand in the Corner & DROOL, Bitch...

    You Found a Nugget, (DINGLEBERRY??) to COUNTER a Feel Good Post REED Made???....ConFLATULATIONS!!!....

    There's your problem, Ace. The people I tend to disagree with around here aren't my peers. Otoh, the people around here who I do consider my 'peers', usually either don't feel like debating with me-which is fine-or agree with me, but don't feel like putting up with the wrath of the retards-which is also fine-or don't care-which is also fine. Fact is, I sort of think you might be okay in real life, but you are usually just too stupid for good conversation on a boxing board. That gives you an advantage over losers like cdogg and mws.

    Late to the party as usual.....

    '76 Olympic boxing team, especially Sugar Ray Leonard, Howard Davis, and Leon & Michael Spinx all winning gold). That's what got me into boxing.

    Hearns/Leonard I (Two of my favorite fighters going head to head: I was rooting for Tommy).

    Boom Boom Mancini v. Deuk-Koo Kim: Just remember watching the brutality of the fight back and forth. Sad result but a hell of a fight.

    Holmes/Cooney: Just remember all of the racial tension (some real, some fabricated) surrounding the fight. Was nervous for Holmes going in. Promoters did a great job of hyping Cooney and down playing Holmes.

    Frankie "The Surgeon" Randall v. JJC: Never thought I'd see JCC lose. Even at his advanced age I was SHOCKED to see him go down and the judges award the fight to Randall---who I had winning the fight.

    Hagler v. Hearns: No explanation needed.

    Big John Tate vs. Mike Weaver: Watched it in a crowded garage at a bbq back in the day. I remember Tate in control most of the fight until Weaver caught him with a left-hook for the KO in the15th. Everyone in the garage was howling.

    Roy Jones Jr. vs. James "Lights Out" Toney: I was the only one at the party who'd seen Roy several times on "Tuesday Night Fights". Nobody there but me gave Roy a chance to win. (Should've bet the whole room on that one! Would've cleaned up!)

    As with everyone here..there are so many others.......

    Bernard Hopkins vs. "Fructose" Morrad Hakkar!!! So memorable on soooo many levels! Earned Hakkar his own section in our beloved forums here... Anyone else here remember the "Hotel Hakkar" where we paid tribute to the greatness of Hakkar ?!!!!

    Who are yours? I already provided info on who I believe are mine. I'm not going to list names because I'm not looking to build a contingent of cheerleaders or enemies. Each discussion should stand on its own.

    That said, I don't consider you to be one of the bitch crew so if you wish to align yourself with them, I wish you would try to help them out more often when you agree with them. They need it.

    Unless REED said "no olympic medalist other than Pernell Whitaker ever fought a guy with a good record in his pro debut", you haven't proven him anything, certainly not "dead wrong"

    You are the most aggressively stupid human being I've ever encountered on the internet.

    What makes it worse is how convinced you are of your intellect. You truly believe that you are unusually intelligent.

    Unless you mean the silent posters whom you assume agree with you because they aren't calling you a moron (in other words they don't post anything related to you at all), you have not in any way illustrated which of Fightbeat's 10-15 regular contributors you consider "peers"... I think it would be most amusing, I mean interesting to see who you consider "peers" on here... Rainmaker? DC Pizza Man?

    Actually, ALL You've Done is CERTIFIED YOURSELF as a Poster who Bases 100% of his Boxing Opinions on WHAT he Finds from BOXREC, just as Most of Those who've OWNED You in Debates Suspected...

    REED's Point about Comeaux was an ASIDE, (Which is Why REED Placed Friggin' Asterisks on Both Ends of It, DIPSHIT), Where REED was WARM & FUZZY about the Last Time he Ever Watched a Live Fight w/his Old Man...Nonetheless, Among All the Keystrokes REED Added to this Thread, YOU'RE Clinging to that Particular Bit???..

    Again, You're NATHAN More than a Perennial Messageboard LOSER, Looking for e-Revenge...Worse, You Combed BoxRec to Find 1, JUST 1 Instance Where You Could Actually Prove REED Wrong...

    1 of Us is Definitely Stupid...But it AIN'T REED...

    My older brother introduced me to boxing. I had no clue who was this Cassius Clay he kept talking about all the time with so much fanaticism. Later we did watched some of his fights in Wide World of sports and I noticed this boxer was truly different from the rest. Then Clay changed his name to Ali. The Ali vs Frazier build up was sort of like THE EVENT everybody was talking about. The anticipation was like nothing I have ever seeing since because every media outlet and the people in the street kept talking about it. The fight itself was even better than the build up, but I was so damn disappointed Ali lost.

    Esteban Dejesus vs Roberto Duran I was particularly sweet to this rican since with the reputation Duran had I thought Dejesus was not going to make it pass the first round.

    Wilfredo Gomez vs Lupe Pintor now this was the most epic war I had witnessed at the time and the most nerve wrecking. As a Gomez fan I was not only rooting, but praying for the KO since Gomez was completely exhausted and Pintor seemed unstoppable almost brushing off all the bombs Gomez was landing on him.

    Duran vs Leonard I : I didn't like Leonard at that time I thought he was just a made for tv boxer with flashy hands. So of course I was rooting for Duran to expose him. Leonard demonstrated in the bout that he was real and a lot of cojones to fight Duran's type of fight which was his mistake. Still I enjoyed the bout and the outcome and watched this fight many times on videotape reel at the audiovisual department in college (this was before VHS or VCRs became household items).

    Leonard vs Hearns I: I was almost sure that the Detroit Hitman was going to murder Leonard like he did to Pipino Cuevas. I told everyone that if Leonard beat Hearns I'll stop hating him and become a fan. That night Sugar Ray Leonard won a new admirer.

    Holyfield vs Tyson I: I was watching this bout alone in my house since my other buddies thought that Evander was old and washed up and was only a tune-up for Tyson. As the fight progressed I kept calling my friends with briefings of the bout. When the stoppaged occurred I was howling like a lunatic and calling my idiots friends who were kicking themselves for missing this huge upset.

    Trinidad vs Vargas: One damn great fight that I have watched many times.

    Eubend vs Benn II was another fight I have clear recollection of as being a massive, hyped event, which lived up to the billing.

    mikE is such a dumbass that he actually makes me wish we could trade him for Esk59. He actually kinda reminds me of an even more ridiculous version of Jaws1216 (Jaws gets the slight edge as poster because it seemed like he actually watched some of the fights/fighters he had stupid & biased opinions about). They both have that same arrogance about their supposed intellect (even thought they are wrong way more often when they are correct) and a tendency to decide they have "won" a discussion when it's clear no such thing has happened.

    Jaws is/was a far superior poster to you. You don't say anything worthwhile, you just try to join in like a stupid cheerleader and hurl weak insults. Cry on about the glory days. If you'd like to try to demonstrate all of these so-called times I was wrong, go for it. You won't.

    My confidence is not in my own intellect, it's in the deficiencies of some of the others around here. Find differently. The consistent lack of reading comprehension from the bitch crew is one of the main tells. And, yes, you are guilty of it often. You want to find people that think they are intelligent, go look to cdogg and loadedgloves.

    The irony is that 'intellect' has almost nothing to do with being an astute fan.

    You always issue this "challenge" and it has been answered dozens upon dozens of times

    When it has been answered, you have either ceased posting in a thread or you have simply refused to concede that you didn't know what you were talking about

    JUST LIKE JAWS

    What is more likely?

    A) Most people think you are an idiot (and I mean that in a Boxing sense, Rainman, lest we waste more time on the semantics of using the word "intellect") because you say plainly idiotic things (idiotic BOXING things) that are obviously untrue on a regular basis

    B) You are an incredibly "astute" boxing fan and everybody else is retarded

    Hey hey, queen bitch leads off with a shit post. Big surprise.

    First paragraph. Untrue.

    Wahh. I can't do it because it's not true, but I wish it was. That's a summary of your second paragraph.

    A) I doubt most think I am an idiot. "obviously untrue"? yeah, no.

    B) You have the reading comprehension of a fucking moron, which is one of my main points about your stupidity. I've never said anything close to "everyone else is retarded." Not even close. If I believed that, I wouldn't post here. I've said you are a bitch and a stupid fucker. I've said Reed is stupid. And perhaps a few others. That's everybody? I believe the main problem you stupid fuckers have with me is that you can't understand the points being expressed.

    You are not even close being an astute fan. You form half-assed opinions that are based on BoxRec and a desperate need for negative attention.

    Unfortunately, this forum always seems to have at least one trolling jackass like you.
