    That isn't his MMA record, and it's still worse than his boxing record.

    Butterbean is the best Super Heavy in MMA, and you are a fool.

    How can you be so ignorant about the sport you claim to be a fan of?

    How?

    Quite the feat considering none of the top three MMA organizations recognize that (over)weight class.

    Tired of acting like an infant brat and posting 'reported' ad nauseam? Darn.

    Ouch, that hurt man.

    A failed boxer who made a career out of beating janitors and taxi drivers became a MMA legend. How does that feel?

    A 50 year old fat coked up Ray Mercer KO'd MMA ATG Tim Sylvia.

    MMA legend Alex Emelianenko stepped into the boxing ring and got his ass beat by a out of shape amateur who took the fight on a weeks notice. The judges ruled it a draw not to embarass the MMA champ.

    MMA= joke

    Are you tired of being made to look like a complete ****** while trying to show that you are somehow intellectually superior to boxing fans?

    btw, reported

    the guy wasnt human. he wouldnt stop punching. had an iron jaw. fast combos. he went like 130-1 before he got his next lost vs. turpin. nobody even came close to that except for julio cesar chavez with only a loss with close to 100 wins.

    JG, I've got just two things to remind you of:
    1. Remember what forum you're in. I know, I'm like you in that I come here too sometimes. It's like going to the zoo, only more amusing.
    2. Don't feed the trolls!

    A quick word on Izzy Jannazzo.

    In spite of a record that's less than stellar, he was able to secure victories over HOF inductees Cocoa Kid and Holman Williams, and gave Top 15 AT welterweight (minimum) Barney Ross a tough challenge in his one try at an undisputed championship. He was a contender in an era where there were more boxers who were fighting far more frequently and matched far tougher than anyone would be in the present day. He won more than he lost in that era, despite being thrown in against vastly more experienced fighters almost from the start of his career.

    If the OP really wanted to live up to his username, he'd examine fighters like Jannazzo a little more carefully before labeling them as "bums".

    Willie Pep was 135-1-1 in the 40's.

    But..he's a bum, too...at least according to the logic of the OP :D
