:: :: I have personal stake in this? :: What the hell might that be? :crafty: I've dealt with this issue before and some have even made me think Tyson could beat Rocky easily, but guess what? You aren't one of them. They had some pretty darn good reasoning and broke it down for me of how they thought that, all you have is hatred for one, love for another and a knack for distorting history and facts.
Yeah, because having the name "Rocco", and having him in your avatar blowing away an old guy means you have nothing vested in this debate. Who cares what you and your little boyfriends talk about on "some other" messageboard. Doesn't change the fact that Marciano is a bum who built his career on 40 year old, past their prime, greats.
If it weren't for that stupid rule saying that you can't put a mod on your "ignore" list, I'd be ignoring you for 20,000 pages by now.
Bro , Spinks WAS SHOT .... He had NO movement left in his legs and even had on two knee braces .... Walcott , Charles & Moore were all better opponents then the Spinks that fought Tyson ... Here is the clip ... Spinks was no better then a bum at this point ... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n5tBbwdut74
I'm not going to degrade Tyson's win over Spinks as I thought it was a great win for Mike. It's obvious that Alabama just hates Marciano so that pretty much ends the debate as there is nothing you can do to overcome that, it only short sights him in the long run and bothers me none as there are millions of fans with the same issues.
Ah, so the name throws you does it? Is your name really Alabama_Man? So I'm guessing your only impartial to Alabama men? :: It's a username, get over it, it's the one that worked after trying 400 others. As for the pic, it's the greatest punch ever landed in boxing, again, get over it. Rocky's not my favorite fighter, I think I probably use it however to display ignorance of others, it seems to be working better than I imagined.
If my username was Marvelous and I had a picture of Hagler vs Hearns, we wouldn't be having this conversation, wonder why.........
No, we'd be having another conversation about "Marvin Hagler vs. Sugar Ray Robinson" and how Hagler got "robbed" against Ray Leonard. Granted you'd be playing the same kind of semantics.
Look at Spinks when they meet in the middle of the ring before the fight . He was already a beaten man ... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p3Ypfh5xggk I also watched Cooney Spinks ... Spinks was already in bad shape in that fight 2 years earlier... Just that Cooney was completely fucked at that point ..
Grant seemed decent but I was never that impressed with him. He sure as hell did not look good against Golota until the very end. As far as huge heavyweights go and skills, I was always more impressed with the Klitschkos (and I detest Vitali) than Grant.
