    I'll respond to that with nothing constructive, hoping that you realize your own mistake.

    The referee took a lot of flak for that one as I recall,Ive got the Ring magazine somewhere with an article on it ,with readers posts and the referees rebuttal I think his name was Tommy Rawson ,an ex fighter.Collins actually agreed with the ref,though many in the audience thought it was a massacre.

    Indeed. There was a pretty huge outcry about that fight...and judging from the pics that I've seen, it's not too hard to see why. Collins looked like he'd been through the meat-grinder.

    Nothing imo. Beating a Sandy Saddler level fighter whilst past his prime is an incredible feat.

    I think Saddler is better than anyone Whitaker beat and Pep beat him whilst past his prime.

    The only thing Whitaker has which is close is an ARGUABLE win whilst past his prime against DLH. At best it's arguable and unlike Pep-Saddler II, no one could mistake that fight for a boxing masterpiece. A close, perhaps intriguing game of cat and mouse, but not a piece of boxing art to hang in the gallery of boxing masterpieces.

    Willie Pep, arguably the best fighter of all time.

    McVey & Robbi, arguably the biggest pair of wankers of all time behind Adolf Hitler and Dale Winton.

    That should settle things :good

    Well, it has been approx 5 1/2 hours since I last posted, and to come back onto this thread to view your abusive post doesn't surprise me. You just never know when to let it go.

    The truth hurts doesn't it.

    You were a great catch, reeled in gently tugging the line. Sensitive bites.

    What's sad is you thinking I'm sitting here with a seething, red face, actually bothered about what you're on about. I'm a homosexual, transsexual, alcoholic dwarf with a wooden leg and a tiny **** - sue me!

    I'm just popping in and out between doing whatever I'm doing, taking no more than a minute each time to write these little captions. You seem to be waiting on here for me to reply all the time, and when you do, there's a hell of a lot of effort being put in for someone who's trying to taunt me.

    Don't know about you but I'm shagged and going to bed, I've actually been out having f u n. You should try it.

    Your pressuming that, and your wrong. To say your not bothered about it couldn't be further from the truth. Your actons support my claims, no three ways about it either. You initiated the personal insults towards me pages ago. You gave me no alternative but to give you some of you're own medicine back in return. Old gym saying "someone hits you low with intent, hit them low right back"

    You simply couldn't handle me winding you up, full stop. Someone else on this very thread has even said that you fly off the handle too easily, and resort to abuse. You have previous for it with others, I don't.

    I have been away for 5 hours, and came back here to see a terrible foul languaged post yet again, not surprised. As I said, you don't know when to let go.

    Touchy + sensitive + abusive = Manassa.

    :hi:

    'Fly off the handle' :D

    No, I'm just a very blunt person, and a hypocrite too.

    If you think you're getting one over on me, if it makes you feel good, I'll say no more.

    Your great entertainment. If I could have placed a bet at the bookies that you were going to reply again after saying " I'm shagged and going to bed" I would have put my life savings on it.

    Your predictable, very. You have to give me my due, I ain't. Just look at the picture I posted, funny for any neutral. Bet you weren't expecting that.

    I'll give you the last word if you happen to still be around.
