    Do you know what a journeyman is?

    Ross Purrity is a journeyman.


    Hasim Rahman was considered good enough to fight for Wlads Title SEVEN years, 4 title fights and 20 pounds heavier than when he first faced Lewis.

    Rahman is hardly a journeyman. He's not an elite fighter, he now has a terrible jaw and always gets KO'd spectacularly, but he's hardly a journeyman.

    Wait a minute, most of you guys claim Wlad isn't a real HW Champion because he didn't fight his brother and collect every single belt out there. He was only stopped as the WBO Champion, which was a fraud of a belt. You can't just suddenly recognize him as Champion just to protect Lenny the Lion from an embarrassing title. What a bunch of ***s. He was also stopped, not knocked out.

    For me its between, Moorer, Lewis, and Tyson. :hey

    Pretty embarrassing - but he got up, brushed himself off and avenged his defeat like a true champion. He retired having beaten every fighter he ever faced.

    He didn't have a brother to handle his dirty business for him.

    You call the McCall "knockout" , "devestating"? Lewis punches had no effect at all on a guy who wasn't fighting and crying at the same time with his hands down.
