But we are taking 2011 out of context, because 2012 hasn't happened yet. If Floyd and Manny fight in 2012, then all of a sudden the fights they...
The 1981 list is. Of course it is. Boxing is like a collection of paints that run into each other. Its not a block chart.
You're not being fair. Boxing has historically been about phases and eras rather than single years or even entire decades. Sometimes it is about 3...
Yes I know. I was being sarcastic.
Right. So as I say, we've been having a decline now for some time. In 1950, boxing was described as the "So-Called Sport of Professional...
I was saying that that is what other people would have been saying. Not me.
Mate...you have picked ONE YEAR, a pinnacle of sorts...and tried to compare it to this year, and then tried to draw some sort of a conclusion....
You've left out a lot of decent fighters there, ostensibly on the grounds that they had no equivalent for the period in question. You can't do...
As I was saying, if you draw a line from 1951 to 1981, people would be whining and moaning too. Walcott would have fucked Holmes up. Ray...
There is so little boxing to choose from these days though...........
Listen man, there's been an entire ERA of brilliantly talented 168lb dudes from the early 1990's right up to the present day. I'd say they all...
My point is thus: you can't pick ONE year, draw a straight line down through three decades, pick another year and draw a clear, purposeful...
We don't know that :nono:
It would be a stretch to say that things are going to radically improve, soon. BUT. In 1981, it would have been unforeseen that things would...
1981: A badly brain-damaged Ali is beaten up by a guy who would be obliterated by Mike Tyson in one round 5 years later. 2011: Haye retires....
In 2003, 22 of the 30 years into the period you mentioned. What are my purposes? To promote Roy and Bernard? My point is this, there is a wax and...
What the OP is saying is that the comparison between 1981 and 2011 is good reason to be depressed. I say not so...that the picture is somewhat...
I was just making a point, a few years either side and you get a radically different picture. I mean fuck it, why not have a 1971 vs 2011 thread...
Dude, I am as realistic as the next guy. Its when certain SoD's from New York come online and say things like "7 out of 10 guys at Heavyweight are...
1981 was better, there are probably 5 guys around right now I would be confident could win titles against other titlists from the 1981 gang, or...
Valero died feared and undefeated. Can Lockridge say that? No. All he can say is "Naaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhh ahhhhhh waaahhh"...
Crazy stuff. Do people have any fucking idea the sort of power these guys can generate? Hopkins could block stuff, take it on the forearms and it...

No, not quite. Maybe tomorrow. Our Maravilla Is pfp yo.
He was going to fight and bash up Mosley, but Haiti knows earthquakes like Floyd knows boxing.
More Harder. Its the only way to be.

Are you saying something bad about old Mr Tin Cup himself? Like that he might be a sex case?
