Boxed! I answered your Angott/Fullmer/Maxim thread properly, you boob. You owe me! I saw you be serious in the general forum not five minutes ago. Step up to the plate, son.

Exactly. I used it all up for the day. I'm spent. I need to rebuild my reserves, brah. I will come back though. Let this tide you over until then:

(Serious and artistic)

I'm still waiting.

I'm saying locce

As for top 50? I couldn't say. I've ranked to 30 so far and that isn't including some guys I know are just on the cusp so I can safely say neither are in my top 40.

Sure, he's a useful tool to get casual or non boxing fans into the ways of the defensive stylist....because of his consistently over the top heavy handed approach to the sweet science, but really i would have thought the more serious afficionado on here would have moved on by now.

Here you compare the effortlessly efficient and economical approach of an unsung master, with a balding stocky chain smoker who at any moment looked as if he might start eating his own shoe while winking at the audience.

I'll take Canto UD straight up, no need for any P4P conjecture.

Great turn of phrase.

I just hope nobody thinks i was being that serious with mostof the other stuff.

After all...if you've got the skills to make an opponent look like a fool...flaunt 'em..

Canto probably had better longevity. He held the Flyweight title for years. He was the premier guy at his weight for a long time, and his weight was much deeper than Locche's at the time.

I also think Canto is much more versatile and adatable a fighter than Locche. His offence is pretty underrated and his defence is equally as good IMO, from an effectiveness stand point.

Despite you being over the top, I actually think your quite right here.
