Two lanky, powerful fighters with mediocre chins, leaky defenses but HEART! Could go either way, would be an out and out war and wouldn't possibly go the distance. I like Corrales in this one. He seems to be susceptible to powerpunches from the left hand (left hooks/left crosses from southpaws) but right hands (Frietas) don't seem to bother him i the same way. Pavlik's right hand is his real power punch. I see Corrales fasts hands and explosive power hurting Pavlik, and Chico finishing him off shortly thereafter...
This topic is stupid. None of you idiots have ever gone into detail into one of your stupid "pound-for-pound" matchups entail.
We have...but you didn't write it down in your notebook or add another tattoo on your skin. You have forgotten...
Rubio, cut off the insults now. You've come back and it is incessant insults and vitriol with you. No more, please.
Here's your own rule: I have insulted no one. I'm simply saying that the premise behind this matchup is stupid, and I have given my reasons why. I mean, you let people use racist epithets all over the place, but you have a problem with someone saying that someone's idea is ill-formed? I have made no ad hominem comments in this topic, and I shouldn't be warned based on this.
as if the horses changing from "stupid." to "I am stupid" wasn't a direct insult. does anyone else smell Horse:shit: ? and im only on here for 5 more mintues before class, so don't bother banning a SN that isn't mine
Actually, I hadn't caught that. And you are absolutely right. Folks should not assume we are being one-sided if we do not address all parties that have violated rules....I am human (as are the other mods) and sometimes we don't catch them. Bringing them up is a big help. That being said - one person doing it isn't an excuse to fire one off yourself. And Rubio insulted the whole thread. SLY - you initiated the insults with respect to Rubio directly on this thread - no more of that. And we shouldn't be editing or deleting posts either. Peace.
In that case, i dare you to find a thread where I insulted the horse without him first taking a shot at me or someone else. In the thread I got banned for he turned a great thread to shit by taking a shot at Rubio. Abuse of mod powers?
get off it, I'm speaking what happened, and there's no sense in banning this name. Find a thread where I started the insulting. just because you started the horse stuff doesn't mean you get to play high and mighty to make up for it. its a good and appropriate bit for someone who has deleted threads, edited posts, and instigated the insults across the board. I even said i should be banned, but lets not play here and pretend it was unprovoked. bottom line is mods shouldn't be instigating shit, and then leveeing their powers to curry favor.
Jaws, you started the insults in the "greatest finishers" thread. Slystaff should get some of the blame for going along with you, but you can't say that you have never attacked him out of the blue.
I don't even know who you are...but if it is Jaws, I will ban this again. And you can't SERIOUSLY be saying that you (if it is Jaws) never insulted Sly (or plenty of others) first, without provocation. Seriously.
"Have you ever seen Ali fight? Actually don't answer that yet, check your notebook and tattoos first. I watched Memento recently...and have a new appreciation for what you must be suffering...." this was sly's last post before I attacked him, in the finisher's thread Subtle, unfunny, self-righteous sarcasm is just as bad as a direct insult, especially for people with intellect. Donny don't ban this, I'm hacking it while my brother is at work, and he didn't do anything. if you can seriously say that Sly has not abused mod powers, and incited confrontations unprovoked, then fine. but you can't, because you arent an idiot. That is all.
oh and be my guess to PM the jaws account threads where I insulted someone in GD without provocation. I have insulted REED for typing like a self-righteous know it all who takes shots at what people says, I have insulted Sly on a number of occasions for similar things, I attacked Joony for awhile because he did the same thing, I attacked Karl for his insults/bs and Carlos for a myriad of reasons that were listed. You'll notice I don't take shots at Rubio or you or Musze or any other the other people who i disagree with often because you guys typically don't play the "I'm better and know more than you" card in every post you make. whatever dude, we can continue this via PM if ud like when i get back.
Aaaron...just because someone's STYLE may sound condescending or arrogant or know-it-all...doesn't give you the right to insult them, name-call and offend everyone in the process. You CANNOT equate the two because they are inherently different. There are guys that get on my nerves with their style and approach to posting; but as long as their content is boxing-related and they are not insulting anyone or breaking the rules - I have no right to spew vitriol simply because I don't like their tone or the way they post. Your way of thinking is exactly what opens up the door for everyone to insult everyone else, simply because of disagreement or even just dislike for the way folks post. ANd I'm sorry, but I clearly see you initiating simply because you are irritated by someone's opinion on a subject ("waste of life"). I don't need to find them. They are there. And more importantly - you've had ample warnings. Now stop the hacking and get your ass back to class. Peace.
It became mediocre when he crushed 'racist' SlyStaff's boy last Saturday night. Oh, the pain and humbling must be excrutiating.
Typically, if I feel that I know more than someone, I let it be evident in the material I post. If someone tells me that Joe Louis has a bad chin because he was knocked down 10 times in 30-something championship bouts or bouts against former or future World Heavyweight Champions, I'm going to call bullshit. :warning:
