GEMS from other forums.

I stopped reading as soon as I saw that.

Guy is a total tard.

 

He classes "Luis Primera" among Tommy Hearns' best wins pre-Leonard, he's the Il Duce of Tards::

 

A year ago you said Manny would probably beat Floyd, you fucking mook ::

 

Any time you want to revive that thread, please do.

Now let's hear why Haugen is so much better than Broner.

You won't reply with any substance, of course, because you are a bitch and I mean that only in the most sincere way.

 

Uh, you compared Litzau and Ponce to Haugen, not Broner

But I'd say Broner still has much to prove before he is even Greg Haugen-level

those other two guys are not better fighters than Haugen, they are not even as good

Hey mikE, what's a better win... beating the shit out of the proven Randy Shields in one-sided fashion, more impressively than anyone before, for 13 rounds or making a cupcake defense against the "undefeated" (from not fighting anyone with a pulse) Luis Primera?

 

Let's back up to what started this...a thread about GEMs from other forums and someone had the nerve to say that Broner would beat Camacho. I don't think that's a GEM regardless of if you believe it or not. Camacho gets mythical status these days right up to the point that 'oh Rosario ruined him'.

Broner has flashy talent and he hits a lot harder than Camacho did and no one has beaten him and he has a title and a lot of people hold him in high regard. So if someone picks him to beat Camacho, big deal. It sure as hell isn't a GEM-worthy comment. And then you've got pile-on. Nobody knows how good Broner is going to be and you pro-80's ass licks (yes, you) like to brag up losses as more indicative of how good someone is than being reflective of not being good. So take the Ponce fight and let it show how good Broner is because it will help him grow.

My point, which was easy enough to figure out despite Xplosive going wah wah, was that if someone as basic as Haugen can beat Camacho then you shouldn't be dismissive of someone believing Broner could beat him. Although I regret throwing in Litzau to support my position, beating Caballero is a far greater accomplishment than anything Randy Shields ever did.

[Shifting to Hearns and that thread] Randy Shields was a proven loser when Hearns beat him, Primera was not. If you wanted to replace Primera with Shields on the quality wins for Hearns to that point, I wouldn't have cared. It wasn't important. Last time you made a case for a different perennial loser in Bruce Curry being a better win for Hearns than Primera. As if it matters.

[Back to this thread] I like this forum a lot, but there are a sizable contingent of douchebags who think that anyone who disagrees with them is an idiot. Shit ain't always black and white and when it comes to assessing how fighters will match up with each other it's almost never black and white. It's you douchebags who apparently don't realize that and then combine the false bravado with a bullshit bias (usually for other era fighters, especially in your case) that really are annoying. Positions from this contingent (and you are absolutely in it) aren't supported with analysis, they are supported with prejudice and conclusory nonsense.

 

tl;dr mike has asperger's syndrome

 

Fuck Duran.

 

Oh hai der mikE.

 

he's certainly not as good as jason litzau, amirite?

 

Is this a reference to The Room?

 

Yeah I know it was more than ten years ago, but Esk59's thread where he said he could beat Tito in a 3X2min round fight is an all time great gem. (It was posted at Boxingfanatics)

 

To this day that is THE alltime greatest BF post.. I actually posted there when it happened......still mentioned from time to time...GS

 

If you think about it: Tito having to fight only 2 minute rounds instead of 3 minute rounds. He could just turn the heat up and hte guy was a fitness fanatic. The only way esk could win is if they gave points for diving out of the ring and took points away for effective aggression.
